WARNING: Drill may stall (if overloaded or improperly used) causing a twist. Always expect the stall. Grip the drill firmly to control the twisting action and prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. If a stall does occur, release the trigger immediately and determine the reason for the stall before
•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.
MOTOR
Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. 120 Volts AC only means your drill will operate on standard 60 Hz household power. Do not operate AC tools on DC. A rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that your tool will operate on standard 60 Hz AC or DC power. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of power and can result in
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always use the proper size extension cords with the tool – that is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw. Use of an undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. For proper size cords see chart below.

NOTE: WHEN THE SWITCH CONTROL LEVER IS IN THE CENTER POSITION THE DRILL WILL NOT OPERATE. DO NOT FORCE TRIGGER. SELECT FORWARD OR REVERSE BEFORE TURNING DRILL ON.
CHUCK & KEY OPERATION (DR501, DR601)
Turn chuck collar to open chuck jaws. Place bit in chuck as far as it will go. Tighten chuck collar by hand. Place chuck key in each of the three holes, and tighten in clockwise direction (Fig. 2). Tighten chuck with all three holes to prevent slippage.
KEYLESS CHUCK OPERATION
To attach accessories, grasp the rear half of the chuck with one hand and use your other hand to rotate the front half in the counterclockwise direction as viewed from the chuck end shown in Figure 3. Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck, and tighten securely by holding the rear half of the chuck and rotating the front portion in the clockwise direction.
QUICK CONNECTTM BIT CHANGE SYSTEM - (DR211,DR220, DR220G)
A unique feature of the DR211 and DR220 drills is the ability to remove the chuck quickly and easily. This allows for a drill bit to be in the keyless chuck, while another accessory such as a screwdriver bit, can be inserted into the Quick ConnectTM hex shaft at the same time.
To remove the chuck:
1.Grasp the drill and depress the two orange buttons on the chuck collar as shown in Figure 4.
2.With the buttons depressed, pull straight out.
To replace the chuck:
1.Push the quick connect chuck straight on with a slight twisting motion until you hear it click into place.
To insert a screwdriver bit into the Quick ConnectTM hex shaft, push the bit in until you hear it click into place. To remove the bit, hold the drill as shown in figure 5. Push in evenly on the spring loaded disc with two fingers and pull the bit straight out.
SWITCH
To turn the drill ON squeeze the trigger switch. The farther the trigger is depressed, the higher the speed of the drill. To turn the tool OFF release the trigger switch. The drill can be locked ON (maximum RPM only) for continuous use by squeezing the trigger while pushing in on the locking button (Fig .1). Hold the locking button in while you release the trigger switch and then release the locking button. The drill will continue to run. To turn the drill OFF from a locked ON condition, squeeze and release the trigger.
WARNING: The drill should only be locked ON when it is held stationary in a drill press stand or other means; NOT BY HAND! Never unplug the tool with the locking feature engaged. To do so will cause the tool to start immediately the next time it is plugged in.
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.
•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 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. Bacon grease will also serve.
•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.
•Plug in drill. Make sure switch turns drill on and off.
KEYLESS CHUCK REMOVAL (DR201, DR202, DR211, DR220, DR220G, DR403)
UNPLUG DRILL. Tighten the chuck around the shorter end of a hex key (not supplied) of 1/4" (6.4mm) or greater size. Using a soft hammer, strike key sharply in a counterclockwise direction (when viewed from the front of the tool). This will loosen the chuck so that it can be unscrewed by hand.
KEYED CHUCK REMOVAL (DR501, DR601)
UNPLUG DRILL. NOTE: Before attempting to remove chuck, shift the drill into the drilling mode (not hammer, if so equipped).
Place chuck key in any one of the three holes in the chuck. Using a soft hammer, strike the key in a clockwise direction. This will loosen the torx screw inside the chuck. Open chuck jaws fully, insert a torx screwdriver into front of chuck between jaws to engage screw head. Remove screw by turning clockwise
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; bacon grease will also serve the purpose.
HAMMER ACTION (DR403, DR601)
Your drill has hammer action which is engaged by rotating the hammer/drill selector lever on the top of the unit. To select hammering, turn off the drill and rotate the lever shown in either Figure 7A or 7B so that the arrow on the lever points to to the hammer symbol on the drill housing. To select drilling, turn off the drill and rotate the lever so that the arrow on the lever points to the drill symbol.
DRILLING IN MASONRY (Shift drill into hammer mode as shown in Fig. 7A or 7B)
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.
DR601 ONLY:
CAUTION: Hold drill firmly to control the twisting action of the drill. If your drill is equipped with a side handle, always use the side handle.
Under some conditions, when removing the drill bit from a masonry workpiece (with the drill running) while drilling in the hammer mode, the transmission can be temporarily shifted into the lower speed, higher torque drill mode. To control the unit in this condition, hold the drill firmly, using both the main handle of the tool and the side handle. The unit is designed to return to the hammer mode automatically as soon as the drill bit is cleared from the workpiece; no change of the hammerdrill/drill selector lever position by the user is required.
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 should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service personnel, always using identical replacement parts.
