Overview

The BLACK+DECKER BCD700S Impact drill is a versatile power tool designed for screwdriving and drilling in wood, metal, and masonry, intended for consumer use. This cordless drill operates on a battery system, offering portability and ease of use without the constraint of a power cord.

Function Description

At its core, the BCD700S functions as a drill and screwdriver. It is equipped with a variable speed switch (1) that allows the user to control the rotational speed of the chuck. The farther the trigger is depressed, the higher the speed of the drill, providing precise control for various tasks. A forward/reverse slider (2) determines the direction of rotation, enabling both tightening and loosening of screws, as well as drilling. This slider also acts as a lock-off button, preventing unintentional starting when in the center position.

The tool features a torque adjustment collar (3) that allows the user to select the operating mode and set the torque for tightening screws. This is particularly useful for screwdriving, where different torque settings are required for various screw sizes and material hardness. For drilling in wood, metal, and plastics, the collar is set to the drilling position symbol. For screwdriving, the collar can be adjusted to a desired setting, with higher settings for larger screws and harder materials. The clutch mechanism ratchets when the set torque is reached, preventing overtightening and damage to the workpiece or fastener.

A keyless chuck (4) facilitates quick and easy installation and removal of drill bits and other accessories without the need for a separate chuck key. The chuck is tightened by holding its rear half and rotating the front portion clockwise, and loosened by rotating counterclockwise. This design enhances user convenience and efficiency during bit changes.

The BCD700S also incorporates dual range gearing (5), which provides greater versatility for different applications. Position 1 offers low speed and high torque, ideal for heavy-duty screwdriving or drilling large holes. Position 2 provides high speed and low torque, suitable for faster drilling in softer materials or smaller screwdriving tasks. The gear shifter button (5) is used to switch between these two ranges, though it is important to do so when the tool is off and stopped to prevent damage to the gears.

The tool is powered by a rechargeable battery (6), which is inserted into the base of the handle. A battery release button (7) allows for easy removal of the battery pack. For convenience, the drill also includes a screwdriver bit holder (8), keeping frequently used bits readily accessible.

Usage Features

The BCD700S is designed with user safety and efficiency in mind. Before any operation, users are advised to read all safety warnings and instructions to prevent electric shock, fire, or serious injury. Personal protective equipment, including eye protection, is recommended.

For battery charging, the battery pack (6) is slid into the charger (9) until an audible click is heard. A green LED on the charger indicates the charging status, flashing during charging and remaining continuously lit when fully charged. It's crucial to charge batteries within the recommended ambient temperature range (10 °C to 40 °C) to ensure optimal battery life and prevent hazards. When disconnecting the charger, the charger should be unplugged from the outlet first, then disconnected from the tool.

When installing or removing the battery pack, the lock-off button (2) should be engaged to prevent accidental switch actuation. The battery pack is inserted into the tool until it clicks into place and removed by depressing the battery release button (7) and pulling the pack out.

For drilling, sharp drill bits are essential. The workpiece should be properly supported and secured using clamps or other practical methods to ensure stability and prevent loss of control. Starting drilling at a low speed with light pressure, keeping the bit tip in contact with the workpiece, helps prevent the bit from slipping and bending. Pressure should be applied in a straight line with the bit, maintaining enough force to keep the bit biting without stalling the motor or deflecting the bit. Holding the drill firmly with two hands provides better control over its twisting action. To avoid damage, users should not repeatedly click the trigger of a stalled drill. When drilling through a workpiece, pressure should be reduced as the bit breaks through to minimize stalling. Keeping the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled hole helps reduce jamming.

For screwdriving, selecting the correct type and size of screwdriver bit is important. If screws are difficult to tighten, a small amount of lubricant like washing liquid or soap can be applied. The tool and screwdriver bit should always be held in a straight line with the screw.

Maintenance Features

The BLACK+DECKER BCD700S is engineered for long-term operation with minimal maintenance, provided proper tool care and regular cleaning are performed.

Before any maintenance, the battery should be removed from the tool, and the charger unplugged from the outlet. Regular cleaning of the ventilation slots in both the tool and charger using a soft brush or dry cloth is recommended to prevent dust buildup, which can affect performance and lead to overheating. The motor housing should be cleaned with a damp cloth, avoiding abrasive or solvent-based cleaners. The chuck should also be opened regularly and tapped to remove any dust from its interior.

The charger itself requires minimal maintenance beyond regular cleaning. Users should never attempt to open the battery packs or chargers, as this can void warranties and pose safety risks. Defective cords on the charger should be replaced immediately by the manufacturer or an authorized service provider.

For batteries, it is important to store them in locations where the temperature does not exceed 40 °C and to avoid exposing them to water. If liquid is accidentally ejected from the battery, contact should be avoided, and the affected area flushed with water. If liquid contacts eyes, medical help should be sought. Damaged or modified battery packs should not be used, as they may exhibit unpredictable behavior. Batteries should not be exposed to fire or excessive temperatures above 130 °C.

When disposing of batteries or the tool, users should follow local provisions for separate collection and recycling, as these products contain materials that can be recovered or recycled, reducing demand for raw materials and protecting the environment. Information on recycling is often available through dedicated services or websites.
