Important information – Product care
These drill/drivers use Lithium Ion Battery Cells. Care MUST be taken to ensure both the safety and life of the
pack is maintained. Ensure you have read all of the safety notes in the previous pages before using the
drill/driver.
Safety devices and circuitry for this tool are located in the battery pack of this tool. The battery pack is a vital
component, not just for the power source, but also for the full safety control for both the charging and also the
tool operation. Treat the battery pack with care and within the guidelines of this manual. If the pack does
become immersed in water or any fluids, or is subject to a severe drop etc., or it does not operate within the
guidelines of this manual, immediately STOP using the battery pack and have it checked.
During operation avoid overloading the drill/driver. If the drill driver is overloaded it will automatically STOP.
Overloading may occur for a number of reasons including when the drill driver is pushed too hard or when
using a drill bit or attachment greater than what is specified. If you do overload the drill driver during operation
refer to the “Overload” section in this manual.
Note: When the battery of the drill is at the lower end of the charge, the drill is more susceptible to the
overload condition. As mentioned above the battery pack is an integral component of this tool and it is fitted
with thermal safety devices. Running the drill at close to maximum load, or continual resetting of the overload
will cause the battery pack to over heat. When a pre-set cell temperature is detected, the battery pack will
automatically STOP operating and will not restart until the battery pack has cooled to a safe level.
In this condition, DO NOT force cool the pack by placing in a freezer or similar device. Refer to the “Overload”
section in this manual.
Another feature of the drill/battery pack is the low voltage cut out feature. This feature operates when the
voltage drops below a pre set value. When this occurs the tool will automatically stop operating. To correct the
situation you need to either insert another charged battery into the drill or recharge the existing battery, and
then proceed with the drilling/driving application.
Note: Attempting to restart the tool in this condition without either recharging the battery or installing a
battery with charge will lead to drill restarting and then stopping again after only a few seconds of operation.
These safety devices have been fitted for the safety, reliability and life of the tool.
Fitting and removing the battery pack
To remove the battery pack from the drill, firmly press the battery release button at the front of the battery
pack, and slide the battery forwards out of the tool.
To install the battery pack with the drill, align the battery pack with the drill base and insert firmly into place by
sliding the battery backwards into position.
Ensure the battery pack locks into position. You will hear a click.
