Important information – Product care
This drill/driver uses lithium ion battery cells. Care
MUST be taken to ensure both the safety and life of the
pack is maintained. Ensure you have read all of the safety
notes in the previous pages before using the drill/driver.
Safety devices and circuitry for this tool are located in
the battery pack of this tool. The battery pack is a vital
component, not just for the power source, but also for
the full safety control for both the charging and also the
tool operation. Treat the battery pack with care and within
the guidelines of this manual. If the pack does become
immersed in water or any fluids, or is subject to a severe
drop etc, or it does not operate within the guidelines of
this manual, immediately STOP using the battery pack
and have it checked.
During operation avoid overloading the drill/driver. If
the drill driver is overloaded it will automatically STOP.
Overloading may occur for a number of reasons including
when the drill driver is pushed too hard or when using a
drill bit or attachment greater than what is specified. If you
do overload the drill driver during operation refer to the
“Overload” section in this manual.
Note:
When the battery of the drill is at the lower end of the
charge, the drill is more susceptible to the overload condition.
As mentioned above the battery pack is an integral
component of this tool and it is fitted with thermal safety
devices. Running the drill at close to maximum load, or
continual resetting of the overload will cause the battery
pack to over heat. When a preset cell temperature is
detected, the battery pack will automatically STOP
operating and will not restart until the battery pack has
cooled to a safe level.
In this condition, DO NOT force cool the pack by placing in
a freezer or similar device. Refer to the “
Overload
” section
in this manual.
Another feature of the drill/battery pack is the
low voltage
cut out
feature. This feature operates when the voltage
drops below a pre set value. When this occurs the tool will
automatically stop operating. To correct the situation you
need to either insert another charged battery into the drill
or recharge the existing battery, and then proceed with the
drilling/driving application.
Note:
Attempting to restart the tool in this condition without
either recharging the battery or installing a battery with
charge will lead to drill restarting and then stopping again
after only a few seconds of operation.
These safety devices have been fitted for the safety,
reliability and life of the tool.
Fitting and removing the battery pack
To remove the battery pack from
the drill firmly press the battery
release tabs (5) at the sides of
the battery pack, and slide the
battery down and out of the tool.
To install the battery pack with
the drill or charger base, align the
battery pack with the drill handle
or charger base and insert
firmly into place. In the drill, the
battery pack should “Click” into
the locked position when fully
inserted. In the charger base, the
locking tabs do not engage.
