GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING:
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
•
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
•
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases,
or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
•
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
•
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Double insulation
eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power
supply system.
•
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
•
Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
•
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately.
Damaged cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
•
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W."
These cords
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
•
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool
while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
•
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and
gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
•
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in.
Carrying tools with your finger on the
switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
•
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on.
A wrench or key that is left attached to a
rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
•
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance enables better
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
•
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
•
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the
work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
•
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application.
The correct tool will do the job better and safer
at the rate for which it is designed.
•
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
•
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the tool.
Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
•
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons.
Tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
•
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
•
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may
affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using.
Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained tools.
•
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.
SERVICE
•
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
•
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section
of this manual.
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
•
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator.
WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. (CCA)
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
The label on your tool may include the following symbols.

SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: DRILLS
•
When drilling or driving into walls, floors or wherever live electrical wires may be encountered, DO NOT
TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic handle to prevent shock.
• Do not lock the tool ON when drilling by hand. Refer to Operating Instructions-Switch.
•
Hold drill firmly to control the twisting action of the drill. If your drill is equipped with a side handle, always
use the side handle.
WARNING:
Use of this tool can generate dust containing chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Use appropriate respiratory protection.
WARNING:
Drill may stall (if overloaded or improperly used) causing a twist. Always expect the stall. Grip
the drill firmly to control the twisting action and prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. If a
stall does occur, release the trigger immediately and determine the reason for the stall before re-starting.
• Always unplug the drill when attaching or removing accessories. When attaching accessories in the drill
chuck, it is important to securely tighten the chuck using all three holes to prevent slippage. When using a
keyless chuck, hand tighten firmly.
MOTOR
Your Black & Decker tool is powered by a Black & Decker-built motor. Be sure your power supply agrees with
nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC only means your drill will operate on standard 60 Hz household power. Do
not operate AC tools on DC. A rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that your tool will operate on standard 60 Hz
AC or DC power. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of power and can
result in over-heating. All Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this tool does not operate, check the power
supply.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always use the proper size extension cords
with the tool – that is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and heavy enough to carry the current the
tool will draw. Use of an undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. For proper size cords see chart below.
ASSEMBLY/ADJUSTMENT SET-UP
WARNING:
Always unplug drill from power supply before any of the following operations.
SIDE HANDLE (1/2" DRILLS ONLY)
• If your drill is equipped with a side handle, it must be installed properly in order to control the drill.
• Insert bolt into recessed hole with molded hex shape, making sure that hex head is seated fully to prevent
bolt from turning.
• Place circular opening over drill chuck and onto front of drill gear case.
• Place the drill on its side and holding the bolt head with your finger, thread handle onto bolt. The handle
now has a full range of 360 degrees around the drill.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, read, understand and follow all important
safety warnings and instructions prior to using tool.
SWITCH
To turn the drill ON squeeze the trigger switch. The farther the trigger is depressed, the higher the speed of the
drill. To turn the tool OFF release the trigger switch. The drill can be locked ON (maximum RPM only) for
continuous use by squeezing the trigger while pushing in on the locking button (Fig .1). Hold the locking button
in while you release the trigger switch and then release the locking button. The drill will continue to run. To turn
the drill OFF from a locked ON condition, squeeze and release the trigger.
WARNING:
The drill should only be locked ON when it is held stationary in a drill press stand or other
means; NOT BY HAND! Never unplug the tool with the locking feature engaged. To do so will cause the tool
to start immediately the next time it is plugged in.
