The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation)
Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to
recycle the battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by
Black & Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in the
trash or municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally
conscious alternative.
RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established
programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel-
cadmium batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by
returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center
or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for
information on where to drop off the spent battery, or call
1-800-8-BATTERY
.

b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for
safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. 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 extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

9. Use only the supplied charger when charging your tool. The use of any other charger
could damage the drill or create a hazardous condition.
10. Use only one charger when charging.
11. Do not attempt to open the charger. There are no customer serviceable parts inside.
Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.
12. DO NOT incinerate the battery packs even if they are severely damaged or completely
worn out. The batteries can explode in a fire.
13. 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.
Charging the Battery Pack
THE BATTERY PACK IS NOT FULLY CHARGED AT THE FACTORY. BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO CHARGE THE BATTERY PACK, THOROUGHLY READ ALL OF THE
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
The charger is designed to use standard household 120 volt 60 Hz power.
1. Plug the charger into any standard 120 Volt 60 Hz electrical outlet.
NOTE: Do not
charge by means of an engine generator or DC power source. Use only 120V AC
2. Slide the charger onto the battery pack as shown in
Figure A
and let the battery charge
initially for
9 hours
. After the initial charge, under normal usage, your battery pack
should be fully charged in
3 to 6 hours
.
3. Unplug charger, and remove the battery pack.
Place the battery in the tool and be
certain that it is inserted fully into the tool cavity until it “clicks” into place.
NOTE:
To remove the battery from the tool, press down on the release button on the
back of the battery (
Figure B
) and slide out.
Important Charging Notes
1. After normal usage, your battery pack should be fully charged in 3 to 6 hours. If the
battery pack is run-down completely, it may take up to 6 hours to become fully charged.
Your battery pack was sent from the factory in an uncharged condition. Before
attempting to use it, it must be charged for at least 9 hours.
2. 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.
Longest life and best performance can be obtained if battery pack is charged when air
temperature is about 75°F.(24°C).
3. While charging, the charger may hum and become warm to touch. This is a normal
condition and does not indicate a problem.
4. If the battery pack does not charge properly—(1) Check current at receptacle by
plugging 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 surrounding air temperature of 40°F (4,5 °C) to 105°F.(40,5 °C) (4) If
the receptacle and temperature are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or
send the battery pack and charger to your local Black & Decker service center. See
Tools Electric in yellow pages.
5. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using product with its battery
pack in a depleted condition.
6. To prolong battery pack life, avoid leaving the battery pack on charge for extended
periods of time (over 30 days without use). Although overcharging is not a safety concern,
it can significantly reduce overall battery pack life.
7. The battery pack will reach optimum performance after being cycled 5 times during
normal usage. There is no need to run the batteries down completely before recharging.
Normal usage is the best method of discharging and recharging the batteries.
Maintenance Stage
The trickle charge feature of the charger allows the battery pack to remain in the charger and
ready for use. With the charger connected to standard household current, the red charging
indicator light will glow constantly. The charger will keep the power pack fully charged. A
battery pack will slowly lose its charge when kept out of the charger.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Operation
Variable Speed Trigger Switch (Fig. 1)
To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch. To turn the tool off, release the trigger switch.
Your tool is equipped with a brake. The chuck will stop as soon as the trigger switch is fully
released. The variable speed switch enables you to select the best speed for a particular
application. The more you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool will operate. Use lower
speeds for starting holes without a center punch, drilling in metals or plastics, or driving
screws. For maximum tool life, use variable speed only for starting holes or fasteners.
NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not recommended. It may damage the
switch and should be avoided.
Forward/Reverse Control Button (FIG. 1)
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 on the right side of the tool. To select reverse, depress the
forward/reverse control button on the left side of the tool. 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.
Quick Release Chuck – (FIG. 2)
NOTE:
The chuck accepts 1/4" (6.35 mm) hex accessories only.
Place the switch in the locked off (center) position or remove battery pack before changing
accessories.
To install an accessory,
pull the chuck collar away from the front of the tool, insert the
accessory, and release the collar. The accessory is locked in place.
To remove an accessory,
pull the chuck collar away from the front of the tool, remove the
accessory and release the collar.
Maintenance
Cleaning
With the motor running, blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with dry air. Wear safety
glasses when performing this procedure. Exterior plastic parts may be cleaned with a damp

RÈGLES DE SÉCURITÉ CONCERNANT LES OUTILS À
PILE – GÉNÉRALITÉS
AVERTISSEMENT! LIRE, COMPRENDRE ET SUIVRE TOUTES LES DIRECTIVES
précisées ci-dessous, y compris les consignes de sécurité, afin d’éviter les risques de choc
électrique, d’incendie ou de blessure grave.
CONSERVER CES DIRECTIVES
Aire de travail
• L’aire de travail doit être propre et bien éclairée.
Les établis encombrés et les endroits
sombres peuvent entraîner des accidents.
•
Ne pas utiliser les outils électriques dans une atmosphère explosive, comme à
proximité de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inflammables;
le moteur peut créer des
étincelles et enflammer les vapeurs ou les poussières environnantes.
•
Tenir les enfants, les visiteurs ou toute autre personne éloignés lorsqu’on utilise un
outil électrique;
les distractions peuvent faire perdre la maîtrise de ce dernier.
Mesures de sécurité – Électricité
•
Ne pas utiliser le cordon de manière abusive, ni transporter l’outil en le tenant par le
cordon. On doit tenir le cordon éloigné des sources de chaleur, de l’huile, des bords
tranchants ou des pièces mobiles. Remplacer immédiatement les cordons
endommagés,
car ces derniers augmentent les risques d’incendie.
•
Un outil à piles intégrées ou à bloc-pile externe doit être rechargé seulement au
moyen du chargeur approprié,
car un chargeur destiné à une pile particulière pourrait
entraîner un risque d’incendie lorsqu’il est utilisé avec une autre.
•
N’utiliser l’outil à piles qu’avec le bloc-pile désigné,
car l’utilisation d’un autre type de
piles peut entraîner un risque d’incendie.
Sécurité personnelle
•
Rester vigilant en tout temps et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’on utilise un outil
électrique; ne pas utiliser l’outil lorsqu’on est fatigué ou sous l’influence de drogues,
d’alcool ou de médicaments,
car un moment d’inattention pourrait entraîner des
blessures graves.
•
Porter des vêtements appropriés; ne pas porter de vêtements amples ni de bijoux.
Couvrir ou attacher les cheveux longs.
Garder les cheveux, les vêtements, les bijoux et
les gants éloignés des pièces mobiles, car ceux-ci peuvent s’y coincer. Se tenir éloigné des
évents puisque ces derniers pourraient camoufler des pièces mobiles.
•
Éviter les démarrages accidentels; s’assurer que l’interrupteur est en position de
verrouillage ou d’arrêt avant d’insérer un bloc-pile dans l’outil.
Ne pas transporter
l’outil en laissant le doigt sur l’interrupteur ni y insérer un bloc-pile lorsque l’interrupteur est
en position de marche, car cela pourrait causer un accident.
•
Retirer les clés de réglage avant de démarrer l’outil;
une clé laissée sur une pièce
rotative pourrait entraîner des blessures.
•
Ne pas trop étendre les bras; les pieds doivent rester ancrés fermement au sol afin
de maintenir son équilibre
en tout temps et de mieux maîtriser l’outil dans des situations
imprévues.
