KNOW YOUR DRILL-DRIVER
See Figure 1.
Before attempting to use any tool, familiarize yourself with all
operating features and safety requirements.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you careless.
Remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict severe injury.
CHARGING YOUR DRILL-DRIVER
The battery pack for this tool has been shipped in a low
charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore,
you should charge it at least 6 hours prior to use.
Note: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time they
are charged. Allow several cycles (drilling followed by re-
charging) for them to fully charge.
