GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles.
A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

Service

Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS

Safety instructions for all operations

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory or fasteners may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory or fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

Safety instructions when using long drill bits

Never operate at higher speed than the maximum speed rating of the drill bit.
At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the work piece, resulting in personal injury.
Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip in contact with the work piece.
At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the work piece, resulting in personal injury.
Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do not apply excessive pressure.
Bits can bend causing breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.

SAFETY WARNINGS FOR BATTERY PACK

Do not dismantle, open or shred battery pack.
Do not expose battery pack to heat or fire. Avoid storage in direct sunlight.

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or fire.
Do not subject battery pack to mechanical shock.
In the event of battery leaking, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has been made, wash the affected area with copious amounts of water and seek medical advice.
Do not use any battery pack which is not designed for use with the equipment.
Keep battery pack out of the reach of children.
Always purchase the battery pack recommended by the device manufacturer for the equipment.
Keep battery pack clean and dry.
Wipe the battery pack terminals with a clean dry cloth if they become dirty.
Battery pack needs to be charged before use. Always use the correct charger and refer to the manufacturer’s instructions or equipment manual for proper charging instructions.
Do not leave battery pack on prolonged charge when not in use.
After extended periods of storage, it may be necessary to charge and discharge
the battery pack several times to obtain maximum performance.
Recharge only with the charger specified by Worx. Do not use any charger other than that specifically provided for use with the equipment.
Retain the original product literature for future reference.
Use only the battery pack in the application for which it was intended.

LED Light Indicator(See Fig. G)
Before operation, the LED light will be activated when the On/Off switch is slightly depressed.
WARNING: To turn on the light, press the On/Off switch and make sure the Forward/Reverse Rotation Control is on right/left position.
The tool and battery pack are equipped with a protection system. When the LED Light is quickly flashing, the system will automatically cut power to the tool to extend battery life. The tool will automatically stop during operation if the tool and/or battery pack are placed under one of the following conditions:

Overloaded: The tool is operated in a manner that causes it to draw an abnormally high current. In this situation, release the On/Off Switch on the tool and stop the application that caused the tool to become overloaded. Then pull the On/Off Switch again to restart.
Overheated: Under the condition above, if the tool
does not start, the Tool and Battery are overheated. In this situation, let the Tool and Battery cool before pulling the On/Off Switch again.
Low battery voltage: The remaining Battery capacity is too low and the tool will not operate. In this situation, remove and recharge the Battery.

TROUBLESHOOTING

WHY DOES THE DRILL NOT TURN ON WHEN YOU PRESS THE SWITCH?
The Forward/Reverse Rotation Control, which is on top of the On/Off Switch, is positioned in the lock function. Unlock the Forward/Reverse Rotation Control by putting it into the required rotation position. Push the On/Off Switch and the drill will start to rotate.Check that the battery is charged and properly connected to the tool.
THE DRILL STOPS BEFORE THE SCREW IS COMPLETELY TIGHTENED. WHY?
Verify the torque position of the torque adjusting ring. Find the torque adjusting ring between the chuck and the drill body. Position 1 is the lowest torque (screw driving force) and position 20 is the highest torque (screw driving force). Position is for drill operation. Regulate the torque adjusting ring to a higher position to reach the best result.
REASONS FOR DIFFERENT BATTERY PACK WORKING TIMES
Charging time problems, as above, and having not used a battery pack for a prolonged time will reduce the battery pack working time. This can be corrected after several charge and discharge operations by charging & working with your drill. Heavy working conditions such as large screws into hard wood will use up the battery pack energy faster than lighter working conditions. Do not re-charge your battery pack below 0°C and above 40°C as this will affect performance.

MAINTENANCE

Remove the Battery Pack from the tool before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
Your tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance.
There are no user serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust. Occasionally you may see sparks through the ventilation slots. This is normal and will not damage your power tool.

FOR BATTERY TOOLS
