Unpacking

Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely

that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is missing.

If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the

parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified.

Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.

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 sever

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 (7) at either side of the battery pack,

and slide the battery backward out of the tool.
To install the battery pack, align

rails, on the tool with the tabs

on the battery pack and slide

the battery pack on to the drill.

Ensure the battery pack is sitting

straight on the foot and correctly

entering the runners. The battery

should slide fully on to the drill

foot until the battery pack “clicks”

into position.
