GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING:
Read all safety
warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2. 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.
3. Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed
or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
5. When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
6. If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply.
Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of electric
shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energising power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
4. Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and
clothing away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
7. If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
8. Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety
principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
POWER TOOL USE
AND CARE
1. Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2. Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack,
if detachable, from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
4. Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
5. Maintain power tools and accessories.
Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
7. Use the power tool, accessories
and tool bits etc. in accordance with
these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
8. Keep handles and grasping surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do
not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE
AND CARE
1. Recharge only with the charger
specified by the manufacturer. A charger
that is suitable for one type of battery pack
may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack.
2. Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
3. When battery pack is not in use, keep
it away from other metal objects, like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or
other small metal objects, that can make
a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
Page 6
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4. Under abusive conditions, liquid may
be ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
5. Do not use a battery pack or tool that
is damaged or modified. Damaged or
modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable
behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
6. Do not expose a battery pack or tool
to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure
to fire or temperature above 100 °C (212 °F)
may cause explosion.
7. Follow all charging instructions and
do not charge the battery pack or tool
outside the temperature range specified
in the instructions. Charging improperly or
at temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the
risk of fire.
SERVICE
1. Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
2. Never service damaged battery
packs. Service of battery packs should
only be performed by the manufacturer or
authorized service providers.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
ALL OPERATIONS
1. Use the auxiliary handle. Loss of control
can cause personal injury.
2. Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory
or fasteners contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WHEN
USING LONG DRILL BITS
• Never operate at higher speed than
the maximum speed rating of the drill bit.
At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if
allowed to rotate freely without contacting
the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
• Always start drilling at low speed
and with the bit tip in contact with the
workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit is likely
to bend if allowed to rotate freely without
contacting the workpiece, resulting in
personal injury.
• Apply pressure only in direct line
with the bit and do not apply excessive
pressure. Bits can bend causing breakage
or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.
Page 7
WARNING:
Some dust created
by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to the state
of California to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement,
and other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from
chemically-treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending upon how often you do this
type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety
equipment, such as dust masks that
are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust
from power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities.
Wear protective clothing and wash
exposed areas with soap and water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth or
eyes or to lie on the skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.

gaged fully to the left or right.
TWO-SPEED GEARBOX
(FIG. 8)
FIG. 8
High
The drill/driver has a two-speed gearbox
for drilling or driving at either low or high
speeds. A slide switch is located on the
top of the drill/ driver to select either low or
high speed. The required speed is adjusted
depending on the material and the working
conditions.
Use low speed for high-power and high-
torque applications and high speed for fast
drilling or driving applications.
Low
When using drill/driver in the low-speed
range, the speed will decrease and the drill/
driver will have more power and torque.
Use low speed for starting holes without
a center punch, drilling metals or plastic,
drilling ceramics, or in applications requiring
a higher torque.
High speed is better for drilling wood and
wood composites.
NOTICE: Avoid running the drill/driver at
high speed for extended periods of time.
Running at high speed under constant us-
age may cause the drill/driver to become
overheated.
NOTICE: Make sure that the two-speed
gearbox switch is fully adjusted at the front
or the back position.
NOTICE: Never adjust the speed while the
tool is running. Failure to obey this caution
could result in serious damage to the drill/
driver.
Page 13
OPERATION
The torque clutch can be adjusted to any
of 24 different settings (23 driving and 1
drilling). The higher the torque setting,
the more force the drill/driver produces to
turn an object in either low or high rotation
speed.
When using the drill/driver for different
driving applications, increase or decrease
the torque in order to help prevent damage
to the screw heads, threads, workpiece, etc.
Adjust the torque by rotating the torque-
adjustment ring. The proper setting depends
on the job and the type of bit, fastener, and
material you will be using.
In general, use greater torque for larger
screws. If the torque is too high, the screws
may be damaged or broken. For delicate
operations, such as removing a partially
stripped screw, use a low torque setting. For
operations such as drilling into hardwood,
use a higher torque setting.
NOTICE: Do not change the torque setting
when the tool is running.
DRILL MODE (FIG. 11)
FIG. 11
Select the drill mode for drilling and other
heavy-duty applications.

OPERATION
IMPULSE MODE (FIG.12)
FIG. 12
1. Impulse mode creates a pulsating on-
off-on motor power cycle, which leads to
a short impulse of torque, together with
low speed, that can be more effective
than a pure rotational motion for certain
applications. The impulse mode can be
used to remove stubborn screws and
prevent the bit tip from walking when
drilling into smooth surfaces, such as
ceramic tiles and steel pipes.
2. Attach the battery to the tool.
3. Turn the direction-of-rotation selector
fully to the left or right and then press the
trigger switch to shine the LED worklight.
4. If the impulse indicator is off, you can
press the impulse button to turn on
the impulse indicator. If the impulse
indicator is on, it indicates that the
impulse mode has been turned.
WARNING:
Do not work for long
periods with the impulse mode activated
as the motor can be overheated.
NOTICE: The impulse mode has a memory
function. If the impulse mode is activated
and not turned off, you can continue to
use the mode directly next time.
NOTICE: With the impulse mode on, the

DRILLING IN WOOD
For maximum performance, use high-
speed-steel (available separately) or brad-
point bits (available separately) for wood
drilling.
1. When drilling “through” holes, place a
block of wood behind the workpiece to
prevent ragged or splintered edges on
the back side of the hole.
2. Begin drilling at a very low speed to
prevent the bit from slipping off the
starting point.
3. Increase speed as the drill bit bites into
the material.
DRILLING IN METAL
For maximum performance, use high-
speed-steel bits (available separately) for
metal or steel drilling. It’s recommended to
use the impulse mode to drill into the steel
pipes.
1. When drilling metals, use light oil on
the drill bit to keep it from overheating.
The oil will prolong the life of the bit and
increase the drilling action.
2. Begin drilling at a very low speed to
prevent the bit from slipping off the
starting point.
3. Maintain a speed and a pressure that
allow cutting without overheating the
bit. Applying too much pressure will:
• Overheat the drill/driver
• Wear the bearings
• Bend or burn bits
• Produce off-center or irregularly shaped
holes
OPERATION
WARNING:
Make sure to insert
the bit straight into the chuck jaws. Do
not insert the bit into the chuck jaws at an
angle and then tighten. This could cause
the bit to be thrown from the drill/driver,
resulting in possibly serious personal
injury or damage to the chuck.
WARNING:
Use protective gloves
when removing the bit from the tool, or
first allow the bit to cool down. The bit
may be hot after prolonged use.
DRILLING
1. Check that the direction-of-rotation
selector is at the forward setting.
2. Secure the material to be drilled in a vise
or with clamps to keep it from turning as
the drill bit rotates.
3. Hold the drill/driver firmly and place the
bit at the point to be drilled.
4. Depress the variable-speed trigger
switch to start the drill/driver.
5. Move the drill bit into the workpiece,
applying only enough pressure to keep
the bit drilling. Do not force the drill or
apply side pressure to elongate a hole.
Let the tool do the work.
6. When drilling hard and smooth surfaces,
use a center punch to mark the desired
location of the hole. This will prevent the
drill bit from slipping off-center as the
hole is started.
7. When drilling metals, use light oil on
the drill bit to keep it from overheating.
The oil will prolong the life of the bit and
increase the drilling action.
8. If the bit jams in the workpiece or if the
drill stalls, stop the tool immediately.
Remove the bit from the workpiece and
determine the reason for jamming.
Page 16
OPERATION
DRILLING IN CERAMIC TILES
For maximum performance, use carbide-
tipped masonry bits (available separately)
for ceramic tile drilling. It’s recommended
to use the impulse mode to drill into the
ceramic tiles.
1. Use just enough force on the drill to
keep it from bouncing excessively. Too
much force will cause slower drilling
speeds, overheating and a lower drilling
rate.
2. Do not exert side pressure on the bit
when drilling, as this will cause clogging
of the bit flutes and a slower drilling
speed.
3. If the drill speed starts to drop off when
drilling deep holes, pull the bit partially
out of the hole with the tool still running
to help clear debris from the hole.
SCREWDRIVER OPERATION
1. Select the desired speed/torque range
to match the planned operation.
2. Attach the desired fastener accessory
into the chuck.
3. Make a few practice runs in a scrap
piece before working.
WARNING:
When servicing, use
only identical replacement parts. Use of
any other parts may create a hazard or
cause product damage.
WARNING:
To avoid serious
personal injury, always remove the battery
pack from the product when cleaning or
performing any maintenance.
WARNING:
Avoid using solvents
when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics
are susceptible to damage from various
types of commercial solvents and may be
