pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as
in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off
when you turn out the lights.
c. Move charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air
temperature is approximately 65°F - 75°F (18°- 24°C).
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your
local service center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on
jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these
conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack
whenever you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.
5. 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.
6. Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside charger. 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.
SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: DRILLS
1. Hold drill firmly with one hand on the grip and the other hand on the bottom of the
battery pack.
2. When attaching accessories in the drill chuck, hand tighten the keyless chuck firmly.
WARNING: Drill may stall (if overloaded or improperly used) causing a twist.

determines the toolʼs direction and also
serves as a lock off button.
• To select forward rotation, release the
trigger switch and depress the

TORQUE CONTROL (SMART SELECT TECHNOLOGY) (FIGURE E)
This tool is fitted with a collar (3) which depicts various drilling and screwdriving
applications. They are used to select the operating mode and to set the torque for
tightening screws. Large screws and hard workpiece materials require a higher torque
setting than small screws and soft workpiece materials.
When the optimal performance selector collar (3) is rotated to any of the images shown in
the chart below, the tool shifts to deliver either the recommended torque or speed for that
application.
