FAQ/Troubleshooting
Do I need to charge the battery before use?
Yes, new battery packs are usually shipped in a below full charge condition and should be fully
charged before use. It takes approx. 1 hour to fully charge your new battery.
Follow the section in this manual on the details to charge the battery (8). If the charger (10) is
connected to the battery (8) and the green charge indicator light is on and the red light does not
come on, then the battery (8) may already be charged. This does NOT indicate a fault. In this case,
t the battery (8) into the drill and run for approx 3- 5 minutes. Then remove the battery (8) from
the drill reconnect to the battery charger (10). The red light should illuminate. Charge the battery
(8) until the green light comes on.
Follow the full section “Battery Charging “ in this manual on page 14-15.
Charging of batteries should not be undertaken casually. Through the charging cycle the
condition of the battery pack should be monitored and the charge cycle turned o at
completion or at the end of the recommended time.
How do I obtain the best life for the battery?
- Never allow the drill to come to a complete stand still before recharging. The battery should
be placed on charge whenever the battery is noticeably running down or the drill no longer
performs a task it previously performed.
- Avoid allowing lose items like screws or nails etc. to be stored with battery packs as these or
similar items can short battery packs and cause a re or explosion.
- Always unplug the battery charger (10) when not in use and store in a dry secure place.
- Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures below 0ºC and above 45ºC.
How do I use the 2 gears on the drill?
To select the LOW gear (low speed, high torque setting), push the gear selector forward, towards
the chuck. The number “1” will be displayed.
To select the HIGH gear (high speed, low torque setting), push the gear selector backwards. The
number “2” will be displayed.
NOTE: The gears cannot be changed if the variable speed / on o trigger (7) is depressed.
