OPERATING TIPS AND MAINTE-

Operating Guides and Tips

Avoid overloading the drill or sander.

Do not apply excessive pressure to the drill or sander while using. If the speed drops abnormally, decrease pressure immediately. When drilling, if the bit stops abruptly or becomes blocked, release the trigger at once. Reverse the direction to free the drill bit.

Ensure the safety of the workplace.

Clear the work area of all parts and debris that may cause injury by flying objects. Securely fix the object to be drilled or sanded in a vise or other- wise clamp to avoid injury. Do not attempt to hold workpiece by hand.

Inspect the drill or sander before use.

Run the drill before using to ensure all parts are running smoothly and there are no abnormal sounds or sparks. If any defect is found, have unit serviced.

Match your drill speed to your torque.

Use low torque and high speeds for boring through light materials. Use low torque and low speeds for driving screws into light materials. For the highest setting, combine a low speed with the “Drill Bit” symbol on the Torque Setting Ring.

Know your worksite. Only drill as deep as necessary. Check behind walls for wires, other electrical hazards, or plumbing.

Use accessories properly. Use the low- est possible torque setting when dri- ving fasteners. This will increase the life span of the driving bit and pre- vent damage to the fastener.

Maintenance

Your cordless power tool will give you hun- dreds of hours of operation time before ever needing service. The electrical com- ponents of this cordless drill are not user serviceable. Repair should always be undertaken by a qualified electrical repair technician.

Keep the drill free from dirt and grease. Always store it in a dry place, preferably in the case that is supplied.

The battery will require periodic recharg- ing, and eventually replacement after it has exceeded its recharge life (approxi- mately 800-1000 recharge cycles). You will notice extended charging times or shortened operation time as the battery experiences more cycles. Battery must

be recycled or disposed of properly.

Refer to the Grizzly catalog for replace- ment batteries.

Disassembly and improper reassem- bly of this device can result in electri- cal shock danger. Always have this device serviced by an qualified elec- trical repair technician. Serious injury will result.
