4.

VERIFY the drill’s rotation before starting the drill so it is correct for the

operation being performed.
5.

NEVER change direction or rotation of reversing model until motor has

completely stopped.
6.

NEVER hold work in your hand, lap, or against other parts of your body

when drilling.
7.

DO NOT use drill as a router or try to elongate or enlarge holes by twisting

the drill. Drill bits may break and cause injury.
8.

APPLY FORWARD FORCE on the pistol grip handle ONLY, and ONLY

with your hands. Models with auxiliary handle: grasp auxiliary handle with one
hand to resist rotational force.
9.

SOME WOOD CONTAINS PRESERVATIVES WHICH CAN BE TOXIC.

Take extra care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with
these materials. Request, and follow, any safety information available from
your material supplier.

REPLACEMENT PARTS

When servicing use only identical replacement parts.

MOTOR

Many Porter-Cable tools will operate on either D.C., or single phase 25 to 60
cycle A.C. current and voltage within plus or minus 5 percent of that shown on
the specification plate on the tool. Several models, however, are designed for
A.C. current only. Refer to the specification plate on your tool for proper
voltage and current rating.

CAUTION: Do not operate your tool on a current on which the voltage
is not within correct limits. Do not operate tools rated A.C. only on
D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the tool.

EXTENSION CORD SELECTION

If an extension cord is used, make sure the conductor size is large enough to
prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of power and possible
motor damage. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found in
this section. This table is based on limiting line voltage drop to 5 volts (10 volts
for 230 volts) at 150% of rated amperes.

If an extension cord is to be used outdoors it must be marked with the suffix
W-A or W following the cord type designation. For example – SJTW-A to
indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
