• To switch the tool on, press the variable speed
switch
1
. The tool speed depends on how far you press
the switch. As a general rule, use low speeds for large
diameter drill bits and high speeds for smaller diameter
drill bits.
• For continuous operation, press the lock-on
button
2
and release the variable speed switch.
This option is available only at full speed in both
forward and reverse direction.
• To switch the tool off, release the variable speed
switch. To switch the tool off when in continuous
operation, press the variable speed switch once more
and release it.
Drilling
• 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.
• 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.
• Plug in drill. Make sure switch turns drill on and off.
• 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 both hands to control its
twisting action (Figure A).
• Use side handle if drill is equipped with one.
• 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.
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.
Drilling in Masonry (Shift Drill into
Hammer Mode)
Use carbide tipped masonry bits. Refer to Drilling section.
Keep even force on the drill but not so much that you crack
the brittle material. A smooth, even flow of dust indicates
the proper drilling rate.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Lubrication
WARNING:
NEVER spray or in any other way apply
lubricants or cleaning solvents inside the tool. This can
seriously affect the life and performance of the tool
and may result in personal injury.
BLACK+DECKER tools are properly lubricated at the factory
and are ready for use. However, it is recommended that,
once a year, you take or send the tool to a certified service
center for a thorough cleaning and inspection.
Cleaning
WARNING:
Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk
of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye
protection when performing this.
WARNING:
Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of
the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic
materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened
only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid
get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool
into a liquid.
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool.
Many household cleaners contain chemicals which
could seriously damage plastic. Also, do not use gasoline,
turpentine, lacquer or paint thinner, dry cleaning fluids or
similar products. Try not to let any liquid get inside the tool;
never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
Repairs
WARNING:
To assure product SAFETY and
RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment
(including brush inspection and replacement, when
applicable) should be performed by a BLACK+DECKER
factory service center or a BLACK+DECKER authorized
service center. Always use identical replacement parts.
