IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Before using charger, read and understand all instructions and cautionary markings on

(1) charger, (2) battery pack, and (3) product using battery pack.

DANGER: 120 volts present at charging terminals. Do not probe with conductive objects. Danger of electric shock or electrocution.

DANGER: If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Danger of electric shock or electrocution.

DANGER: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.

WARNING: Don’t allow any liquid to get inside charger. Electric shock may result. CAUTION: To reduce risk of injury, charge only Black & Decker rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal injury and damage.

To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.

Do not expose charger to rain or snow.

Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Black & Decker may result in risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

This charger is not intended for any uses other than charging Black & Decker rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.

To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.

Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock, or electrocution. If an extension cord must be used, make sure:

That the pins on plug of extension cord are the same number, size and shape of those of plug on charger.

That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition and the wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating of charger as specified below.

An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

The charger is ventilated through slots in the housing. Do not place any object on top of charger or place the charger on a soft surface that might block the ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the charger in a position away from any heat source.

Do not operate charger with damaged cord or plug — have them replaced immediately.

Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; take it to an authorized service center.

Do not disassemble charger; take it to an authorized service center when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.

The charger is designed to operate on standard120 VAC, 60Hz household electrical power. Do not attempt to use it on any other voltage.

To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from outlet before attempting any cleaning. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.

NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.

DO NOT store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 105°F (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).

A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur under extreme usage, charging or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin:

a.Wash quickly with soap and water.

b.Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.

c.If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek immediate medical attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a 25-35% solution of potassium hydroxide.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CHARGING THE BATTERY

THE BATTERIES IN YOUR POWER PACK ARE NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE FACTORY. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THEM, THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.

The charger is designed to use standard household 120 volt 60 Hz power. NOTE: Do not charge by means of an engine generator or DC power source. Use only 120V AC.

1.Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet.

2.Slide the charger onto the battery pack as shown in Figure 1 and let it charge initially for 9 hours. After the initial charge, under normal usage, your power pack should be fully charged in 3 to 9 hours.

3.Remove pack from the charger and place in tool. NOTE: To remove the battery from the saw, press down on the release button on the back of the battery (Figure 2) and pull out.

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES

1.Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature below +40°F(+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

2.The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not indicate a problem.

3.If the battery pack does not charge properly — (1) Check power at receptacle by plug- ging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately 65°F - 75°F (18°- 24°C). (4) If charging problems persist, take or send the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service center.

4.The battery pack should be recharged when it does not produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE use under these conditions. Follow the charging procedures. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.

5.Black & Decker battery packs that are labeled “NiMH” should only be used with chargers labeled “NiMH“ or “NiCd/NiMH.”

6.Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the exposed charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.

7.Do not immerse charger in water or any other liquid.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

TRIGGER SWITCH & REVERSING BUTTON - FIGURE 3

The drill is turned ON and OFF by pulling and releasing the trigger switch shown in Figure 3. The farther the trigger is depressed, the higher the speed of the drill. A forward/reverse control button determines the direction of the tool and also serves as a lock off button. To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and depress the forward/reverse control

button. To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control button the opposite direction. The center position of the control button locks the tool in the off position. When changing the position of the control button, be sure the trigger is released.

TORQUE CONTROL - FIGURE 4

To set the tool’s torque, rotate the adjustable torque collar as required. There are 32 clutch settings in all. These are indicated by numbers depicted on the torque collar. For light duty work when using small screws, set the collar to the smallest number. Each click in a clockwise direction means an increase in the torque produced. If the clutch slips on the lightest setting, turn the clutch collar to a higher number. The highest position is the drill mode and is indicated by a drill bit icon. In this position the clutch will not operate. This permits heavy duty drilling.

DUAL RANGE GEARING - FIGURE 5

The dual range feature of your drill allows you to shift gears for greater versatility. To select position 1, turn tool off and permit to stop. Slide gear shifter back (away from chuck). Position 1 is for driving and removing screws and drilling with bits that require high torque. To select position 2, turn tool off and permit to stop. Push button forward towards the chuck. Position 2 is for drilling using smaller bits. NOTE: Do not change gears when tool is running. If you are having trouble changing gears, make sure that the dual range gear button is either completely pushed forward or completely pushed back.

KEYLESS CHUCK

To insert a drill bit or other accessory:

Loosen the chuck by rotating the sleeve counterclockwise. Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck, and tighten securely by rotating in the clockwise direction as viewed from the chuck end.

WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the front part of the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury may occur when changing accessories.

SCREW DRIVING

For driving fasteners, the reversing button should be pushed to the left. Use reverse (button pushed to the right) for removing fasteners. When moving from forward to reverse, or vice versa, always release the trigger switch first.

DRILLING

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 with two hands 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.

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.

Make sure switch turns drill on and off.

WARNING: It is important to support the work properly and to hold the drill firmly to prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. If you have any questions on how to properly operate tool, call: 1-800-54-HOW-TO(544-6986).

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.

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 (other than those listed in this manual) should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using identical replacement parts.
