(excluding masonry).

Unpacking Your Tool

• Carefully unpack and inspect your new sander. Familiarise yourself with all its features
and functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts are
missing or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool

Before Use

Removing a battery
• To remove the Battery (10) from the drill, press the Battery Release (11) on both sides of
the tool, then pull the Battery out of the Hand Grip (8)
WARNING: DO NOT try to remove the Battery without pressing the Battery Release button.
The drill or Battery could be damaged.
Fitting a battery
1. To fit a charged battery, slide it in to the Hand Grip (8) of the drill until it clicks and
locks into position
Note: Make sure the Battery and drill are lined up correctly. If the Battery does not slide
into the drill easily, don't force it. Instead, slide the Battery out of the drill again, check the
top of Battery and the drill battery slot are clean and undamaged and that the contacts
are not bent.
Setting up the battery charger
1. If fitted, remove any battery from the Battery Charger (12)
2. Insert the Mains Plug (13) into a suitable mains socket
Note: The Green LED (14) on the Battery Charger will illuminate to indicate that the charger
is ready to charge the battery.
WARNING: ONLY use this charger to charge the supplied battery or additional purchased
batteries that are specifically designed for this tool.
WARNING: The charger is designed for indoor use only, and MUST NOT be used in damp
or wet conditions.
Charging the battery
WARNING: Failure to follow the correct procedure when charging batteries will result in
permanent damage.
Note: Normal charging time is 3 hour for a recently discharged battery. However, if the
Battery (10) has been left in a discharged state for some time, it may take up to 5 hours
to charge.

1. Slide a fully or partially discharged Battery into the Battery Charger (12)
Note: Make sure the Battery and Battery Charger are lined up correctly. If the Battery
does not slide into the Battery Charger easily, don't force it. Instead, remove the Battery,
check the top of Battery and the Battery Charger slot are clean and undamaged and that
the contacts are not bent.
2. Once charging commences, the Green and Red LEDs will illuminate
3. When the Battery is fully charged only the Green LED will be illuminated
Notes about battery charging:
• The battery should be charged at ambient temperatures between 10 and 40°C (ideally
around 20°C)
• After charging, allow 15 minutes for the battery to cool before use
• Ensure that the charger is disconnected from the mains supply after use, and is stored
correctly
• DO NOT leave batteries on charge for extended periods and NEVER store batteries on
charge
• The Battery Charger monitors battery temperature and voltage while charging. Remove
the Battery once charging has been completed to maximise charge cycles of the battery
and not waste power
• Batteries can become faulty over time, individual cells in the battery can fail and the
battery could short. The charger will not charge faulty batteries. Use another battery,
if possible, to check correct functionality of the charger and purchase a replacement
battery if a faulty battery is indicated
• DO NOT store Lithium-Ion battery packs in a discharged state long term. This can
damage the Lithium-Ion cells. For long-term storage, store batteries in a high charge
state disconnected from the power tool
• The capacity of batteries will reduce over time. After 100 charge cycles, the battery's
operation time and the maximum torque performance of the drill will slightly reduce.
This decline will continue until the battery has minimal capacity after 500 charge cycles.
This is normal and not a fault with the battery pack
Fitting drill bits and accessories
WARNING: ALWAYS remove the Battery from the drill before attaching, adjusting or
removing accessories.
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the
front part of the chuck and switching the tool on. This can lead to personal injury and can
cause damage to the chuck.
WARNING: NEVER fit any accessory or bit with a maximum speed lower than the no load
speed of the power tool.
1. Open the Chuck Jaws (1) by holding the rear of the Chuck Collar (2) and rotating the
front of the Chuck Collar anti-clockwise
2. Place the drill bit or accessory centrally into the chuck
3. Tighten the Chuck Jaws by rotating the front of the Chuck Collar clockwise while
holding the rear of the Chuck Collar
4. When the drill bit or accessory is securely fastened, carefully run the machine to test
that it is running centrally, smoothly and evenly. If the bit is 'wobbling' or not running
centrally, release the chuck, check the accessory for damage, correct its position,
retighten and test again
Operation
Direction control
WARNING: NEVER change the direction of rotation while the tool is running. This may
cause permanent damage to the tool.
• The direction of rotation can be set using the Forward/Reverse Switch (6)
• For anti-clockwise rotation, push the switch to the right
• For clockwise rotation, push the switch to the left
Note: When the Forward/Reverse Switch is in the central position, the drill is locked and
cannot be switched on. Use this setting as a safety feature to prevent the drill from being
switched on accidentally.
Torque control
Note: This cordless drill is equipped with a torque control clutch allowing the machine to
be set to the correct torque for the individual application.
• The clutch settings are indicated by the symbols on the Torque Selector (3)
• Rotate the Torque Selector to select the desired setting: the higher the number displayed
on the torque ring, the higher the torque produced by the tool
Gear selection
• Select gear 1 on the Gear Switch (4) for the higher torque. A lower speed gear is
generally more suitable for driving screws and fasteners
• Select gear 2 on the Gear Switch for the lower torque. A higher speed gear is for drilling
and must not be used for driving screws and fasteners
Note: ALWAYS read the documentation provided with drill bits and accessories for the
recommended or maximum speed setting and use the most appropriate gear. See
'Specification' for the maximum no load speed of each gear.
