button. To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control button the opposite direction.
The center position of the control button locks the tool in the off position. When changing
the position of the control button, be sure the trigger is released. 

TORQUE CONTROL - FIGURE 4

To set the tool’s torque, rotate the adjustable torque collar as required. There are 32 clutch
settings in all. These are indicated by numbers depicted on the torque collar. For light duty
work when using small screws, set the collar to the smallest number. Each click in a
clockwise direction means an increase in the torque produced. If the clutch slips on the
lightest setting, turn the clutch collar to a higher number. The highest position is the drill
mode and is indicated by a drill bit icon. In this position the clutch will not operate. This
permits heavy duty drilling.

DUAL RANGE GEARING - FIGURE 5 

The dual range feature of your drill allows you to shift gears for greater versatility. To select
position 1, turn tool off and permit to stop. Slide gear shifter back (away from chuck).
Position 1 is for driving and removing screws and drilling with bits that require high torque.
To select position 2, turn tool off and permit to stop. Push button forward towards the chuck.
Position 2 is for drilling using smaller bits. 

NOTE:

Do not change gears when tool is running.

If you are having trouble changing gears, make sure that the dual range gear button is
either completely pushed forward or completely pushed back.

KEYLESS CHUCK 

To insert a drill bit or other accessory: 

Loosen the chuck by rotating the sleeve counterclockwise.  Insert the bit or other accessory  
fully into the chuck, and tighten securely by rotating in the clockwise direction as viewed 
from the chuck end.

WARNING:

Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the

front part of the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury
may occur when changing accessories.

SCREW DRIVING

For driving fasteners, the reversing button should be pushed to the left. Use reverse (button
pushed to the right) for removing fasteners. When moving from forward to reverse, or vice
versa, always release the trigger switch first.

DRILLING

• Use sharp drill bits only.
• Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the Safety Instructions. 
• Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in the Safety Instructions. 
• Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the Safety Instructions. 
• Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole is started enough to keep the

drill bit from slipping out of it.

• Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep the bit biting but

not so much as to stall the motor or deflect the bit.

• Hold the drill firmly with two hands to control its twisting action.

• DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF A STALLED DRILL OFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPT

TO START IT. DAMAGE TO THE DRILL CAN RESULT.

• Minimize stalling on breakthrough by reducing pressure and slowly drilling through the last

part of the hole.

• Keep the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled hole. This will help reduce

jamming.

• Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and brass which

should be drilled dry. The lubricants that work best are sulphurized cutting oil or lard oil. 

• When using twist drill bits to drill holes in wood, it will be necessary to pull the bits out

frequently to clear chips from the flutes.

Make sure switch turns drill on and off.

WARNING:

It is important to support the work properly and to hold the drill firmly to

prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. If you have any questions on how
to properly operate tool, call: 

1-800-54-HOW-TO (544-6986).

DRILLING IN WOOD

Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drill bits used for metal or with spade bits.
These bits should be sharp and should be pulled out frequently when drilling to clear chips
from the flutes.

DRILLING IN METAL

Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and brass which
should be drilled dry. The cutting lubricants that work best are sulfurized cutting oil or lard
oil. 

MAINTENANCE

Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool;
never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

IMPORTANT:

To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and

adjustment (other than those listed in this manual) should be performed by authorized
service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement
parts.

THE RBRC™ SEAL

The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation)
Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to
recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by
Black & Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in the
trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally
conscious alternative.
RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established
programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel-
cadmium batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by
returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center
or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for
information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call 

1-800-8-BATTERY

.

This charger is not intended for any uses other than charging Black & Decker 
rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or 
electrocution.

To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when 
disconnecting charger.

Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise 
subjected to damage or stress.

An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper 
extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution. If an extension
cord must be used, make sure:

That the pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size and shape of
those of plug on charger.

That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition and the wire
size is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger as specified below.

An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for
safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable,
that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension
to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the
minimum wire size.

ging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and battery
pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately 65°F - 75°F
(18°- 24°C). (4) If charging problems persist, take or send the tool, battery pack and
charger to your local service center.

4. The battery pack should be recharged when it does not produce sufficient power on jobs

which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE use under these conditions.
Follow the charging procedures. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever
you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.

5. Black & Decker battery packs that are labeled “NiMH” should only be used with chargers

labeled “NiMH“ or “NiCd/NiMH.”

6. Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the exposed

charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign 
materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or
any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always
unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity.
Unplug charger before attempting to clean.

7. Do not immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
