OPERATION

Fig. 1

KNOW YOUR DRILL-DRIVER

See Figure 1.

Before attempting to use any tool, familiarize yourself with all
operating features and safety requirements.

WARNING:

Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you careless.
Remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict severe injury.

CHARGING YOUR DRILL-DRIVER

The battery pack for this tool has been shipped in a low
charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore,
you should charge it at least 6 hours prior to use.

Note: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time they
are charged. Allow several cycles (drilling followed by re-
charging) for them to fully charge.

TO CHARGE

Charge battery pack only with the charging assembly
provided.

Make sure power supply is normal house voltage,
120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only.

Connect charging assembly to power supply.

Place battery pack in charging assembly. Align raised
rib on battery pack with groove in charging assembly.
See Figure 2.

Press down on battery pack to be sure contacts on
battery pack engage properly with contacts in charging
assembly. When properly connected, red light will turn
on.

After normal usage, 3 hours of charging time is re-
quired to be fully charged. A minimum charge time of 6
hours is required to recharge a completely discharged
battery.

The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch
while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a
problem.

DO NOT place charging assembly in an area of ex-
treme heat or cold. It will work best at normal room
temperature.
