State of lamp
Battery Remaining Power
The battery remaining power
is enough.
The battery remaining power
is a half.
The battery remaining power
is nearly empty.
Re-charge the battery soonest
possible.
As the remaining battery indicator shows somewhat
differently depending on ambient temperature and
battery characteristics, read it as a reference.
NOTE:
Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or
break it. It may lead to a trouble.
To save the battery power consumption, the
remaining battery indicator lamp lights while pressing
the remaining battery indicator switch.
9. How to use the LED light
Every time you press the light switch on the switch
panel, the LED light lights or goes off. (Fig. 14)
To prevent the battery power consumption, turn off
the LED light frequently.
CAUTION:
Do not expose directly your eye to the light by looking
into the light.
If your eye is continuously exposed to the light, your
eye will be hurt.
NOTE:
To prevent the battery power consumption caused
by forgetting to turn off the LED light, the light goes
off automatically in about 15 minutes.
10. Mounting and dismounting of the bit
(1) Mounting the bit
Loosen the sleeve by turning it toward the left (in the
counterclockwise direction as viewed from the front)
to open the clip on the keyless chuck. After inserting
a driver bit, etc., into the keyless drill chuck, and
tighten the sleeve by turning it toward the right (in
the clockwise direction as viewed from the front).
(See Fig. 15)
If the sleeve becomes loose during operation, tighten
it further.
The tightening force becomes stronger when the
sleeve is tightened additionally.
(2) Dismounting the bit
Loosen the sleeve by turning it toward the left (in the
counterclockwise direction as viewed from the front),
and then take out the bit ect. (See Fig. 15)
NOTE:
If the sleeve is tightened in a state where the clip of
the keyless chuck is opened to a maximum limit, a
click noise may occur. This is the noise that occurs
when the loosening of the keyless chuck is prevented
and is not a malfunction.
Table 6
CAUTION:
When it is no longer possible to loosen the sleeve,
use a vise or similar instrument to secure the bit. Set
the clutch mode between 1 and 11 and then turn the
sleeve to the loose side (left side) while operating the
clutch. It should be easy now to loosen the sleeve.
11. Automatic spindle-lock mechanism
This unit has automatic spindle-lock mechanism for
quick bit changes.
12. Confirm that the battery is mounted correctly
13. Check the rotational direction
The bit rotates clockwise (viewed from the rear side)
by pushing the R-side of the selector button.
The L-side of the selector button is pushed to turn the
bit counterclockwise. (See Fig. 16) (The
marks are provided on the selector button.)
14. Switch operation
When the trigger switch is depressed, the tool rotates.
When the trigger is released, the tool stops.
The rotational speed of the drill can be controlled by
varying the amount that the trigger switch is pulled.
Speed is low when the trigger switch is pulled slightly
and increases as the trigger switch is pulled more.
NOTE:
A buzzing noise is produced when the motor is about
to rotate; This is only a noise, not a machine failure.
15. For drilling into brick <DV14DSDL / DV18DSDL>
Excessive pressing force never increases drilling
speed. It will not only damage the drill tip or reduce
working efficiency, but could also shorten the service
life of drill bit. Operate the impact driver drill within
10-15 kg pressing force while drilling into brick.
16. Installing / Removing the side handle
CAUTION
Firmly install the side handle. If loose, the side handle
may gyrate or fall out and cause bodily injury.
(1) Install the side handle so that the protrusions on the
main unit and grooves on the side handle interlock.
Tighten the grip after checking that the side handle is
not riding on the slip prevention protrusion (Fig. 21).
(2) Loosen the grip to remove the side handle.
OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS
1. Resting the unit after continuous work
(1) The power tool is equipped with a temperature
protection circuit to protect the motor.
Continuous bolt-tightening work may cause the
temperature of the unit to rise, activating the
temperature protection circuit and automatically
stopping operation.
If this happens, allow the power tool to cool before
resuming use.
(2) After use for continuous tightening wood screw
works, rest the unit for 15 minutes or so when
replacing the battery. The temperature of the motor,
switch, etc., will rise if the work is started again
immediately after battery replacement, eventually
resulting in burnout.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
1. Inspecting the tool
Since use of as dull tool will degrade efficiency and
cause possible motor malfunction, sharpen or replace
the tool as soon as abrasion is noted.
