DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS

1. Safety instructions for all operations
2. 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.
3. Safety instructions when using long drill bits
4. 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 workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
5. Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
6. 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

1. Do not dismantle, open or shred cells or battery pack.
2. Do not short-circuit a battery pack. Do not store battery packs haphazardly in a box or drawer where they may short-circuit each other or be short-circuited by conductive materials. 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 a fire.
3. Do not expose battery pack to heat or fire. Avoid storage in direct sunlight.
4. Do not subject battery pack to mechanical shock.
5. In the event of battery leaking, do not allow the liquid to come into contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has been made, wash the affected area with copious amounts of water and seek medical advice.
6. Seek medical advice immediately if a cell or battery pack has been swallowed.
7. Keep battery pack clean and dry.

TECHNICAL DATA

Type Designation DX11 DX11.1 DX11B (11 – designation of machinery, representative of drill driver )

NOISE INFORMATION

Wear ear protection.

VIBRATION INFORMATION

Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to EN 62841:

Drilling into metal

| Vibration emission value: ah = 1,4 m/s2
Uncertainty K = :1.5 m/s²

The declared vibration total value and the declared noise emission value have been measured in accordance with a standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another. The declared vibration total value and the declared noise emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING :

• The vibration and noise emissions during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is processed dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used:
• How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled.
• The tool being in good condition and well maintained.
• The use of the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.
• The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration and noise accessories are used.
• And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.

WARNING : To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Helping to minimise your vibration and noise exposure risk. Always use sharp chisels, drills and blades. Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate). If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration and noise accessories. Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days.

BEFORE PUTTING INTO OPERATION

1. CHARGE YOUR BATTERY PACK(SEE FIG. A)
2. CHECKING THE BATTERY POWER CONDITION(SEE FIG. A)
   5 LED lights show the battery power condition. Before starting or after use, press the button beside the lights to check the battery power condition.

ASSEMBLY

1. TO REMOVE OR INSTALL BATTERY PACK(SEE FIG. B)
   Depress the battery pack release button to release and slide the battery pack out from your tool. After recharge, slide it back into your tool. A simple push and slight pressure will be sufficient.

OPERATION

1. ON / OFF SWITCH (SEE FIG. C)
   Depress the On/Off switch to start and release it to stop your drill. The on/off switch is fitted with a brake function which stops your chuck immediately when you quickly release the switch. It is also a variable speed switch that delivers higher speed and torque with increased trigger pressure. Speed is controlled by the amount of switch trigger depression.
   WARNING : Do not operate for long periods at low speed because excess heat will be produced internally.
   WARNING : When overload occurs, release the on/off switch immediately to avoid the motor overheating.

2. SWITCH LOCK
   The switch trigger can be locked in the OFF position. This helps to reduce the possibility of accidental starting when not in use. To lock the switch trigger, place the rotation control in the center position.

3. FORWARD AND REVERSE ROTATION CONTROL (SEE FIG.C)
   Forward rotation: Push and press the ” ” from body back side to body front side for drilling. Reverse rotation: Push and press the” ” from body front side to body back side for removing the drill bits.
   WARNING : Never change the direction of rotation while the tool is rotating, wait until it has stopped.

4. TWO-SPEED GEAR CONTROL(SEE FIG. D)
   The drill has a two-speed gear control designed for drilling or driving at LO (mark is 1) or HI (mark is 2) speeds. A slide switch is located on top of the drill to select either LO or HI speed. When using the drill in the LO speed range, the speed will decrease and the drill will have greater power and torque. When using the drill in the HI speed range, the speed will increase and the drill will have less power and torque.
   Gear I
   Low-speed range: for screwdriver or working with large drilling diameter
   Gear II
   High speed range: for working with small drilling diameter
   WARNING : To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck to come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation or the twospeed gear control.
   WARNING : When overload occurs frequently on the high-speed gear, switch to the low-speed gear to avoid the motor overheating.

5. CHUCK ADJUSTMENT (SEE FIG. E)
   To open the chuck jaws rotate the front section of the chuck. Insert the drill bit between the chuck jaws and rotate the front section in the opposite direction. Ensure the drill bit is in the center of the chuck jaws. Finally, firmly rotate the front chuck section in the opposite directions. Your drill bit is now clamped in the chuck.

6. TORQUE ADJUSTMENT(SEE FIG. F)
   The torque is adjusted by rotating the torque adjustment ring. The torque is greater when the torque adjustment ring is set on a higher setting. The torque is less when the torque adjustment ring is set on a lower setting. Make the setting as follows:1 – 6| for driving small screws
   ---|---
   7 – 12| for driving screws into soft material
   13 – 18| for driving screws into soft and hard

material

 | for heavy drilling
7. AUTOMATIC SPINDLE LOCK
The automatic spindle lock allows you to use it as a regular screwdriver. You can give an extra twist to firmly tighten a screw, loosen a very tight screw or continue working when the battery energy has expired. For manual screwdriver purposes, the chuck is automatically locked when the tool is off.

8. USING THE LED LIGHT
   To turn on the light simply press the on/off switch. When you release the on/off switch, the light will be off. LED lighting increases visibility-great for dark or enclosed area. LED is also a battery capacity indicator. It will flash when power gets low.

9. BELT CLIP
   Screw the belt clip on the tool with the screw. The belt clip can be hooked on your belt or pocket, etc.

10. DRILLING
    When drilling into a hard smooth surface, use a center punch to mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the drill bit from slipping off center as the hole is started. Hold the tool firmly and place the tip of the bit at the point to be drilled. Depress the switch trigger to start the tool. Move the drill bit into the workpiece, applying only enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force or apply side pressure to elongate a hole. If you want to activate the drill function (For drilling metal wood or plastic), turn the torque adjustment ring on the drill position.
    WARNING : When drilling in metal, only use HSS drill bits in good condition. Always use a magnetic bit holder (not included) when using short screwdriver bits. When screw-driving, apply a small quantity of liquid soap or similar to the screw threads to ease insertion.

11. OVERLOAD PROTECTION
    When overloaded, the motor comes to a stop. Relieve the load on the machine immediately and allow cooling for approx. 30 seconds at the highest no-load speed.

12. TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT OVERLOAD PROTECTION
    When using as intended for the power tool cannot be subject to overload. When the load is too high or the allowable battery temperature of 75 °C is exceeded, the electronic control switches off the power tool until the temperature is in the optimum temperature range again.

13. PROTECTION AGAINST DEEP DISCHARGING
    The Li-ion battery is protected against deep discharging by the “Discharging Protection System”. When the battery is empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.

PROBLEM SOLUTION

1. WHY DOES THE DRILL NOT TURN ON WHEN YOU PRESS THE SWITCH?
   The forward/reverse rotation control, which is on top of the trigger, is positioned in the lock function. Unlock the forward/reverse rotation control by putting it into the required rotation position. Push the trigger and the drill will start to rotate. Check that the battery is charged and properly connected to the tool.

2. THE DRILL STOPS BEFORE THE SCREW IS COMPLETELY TIGHTENED. WHY?
   Verify the torque position of the torque adjusting ring, you can find the torque-adjusting ring between the chuck and the drill body. Position 1 is the lowest torque (screw driving force) and position 18 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.

3. REASONS FOR DIFFERENT BATTERY PACK WORKING TIMES
   Charging time problems, 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. Heavy working conditions will use up the battery pack energy faster than lighter working conditions. Do not re-charge your battery pack below 0oC and above 40oC as this will affect performance.

MAINTENANCE

Remove the battery pack from the tool before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
Your power 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
The ambient temperature range for the use and storage of tool and battery is 0 °C-45°C. The recommended ambient temperature range for the charging system during charging is 0 °C-40 °C.
