Getting Started
Unpacking
Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely that your drill/driver is faulty or
that a part is missing. If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the parts have
been replaced or the fault has been rectified. Failure to do so could result in serious personal
injury. Use only Workzone® replacement parts for your product. Non-conforming parts or
modifications made to parts will void your warranty.
Important information – Product care
This drill/driver uses Lithium-ion Battery Cells. Care MUST be taken to ensure both the safety
and life of the pack is maintained. Ensure you have read all of the safety notes in the previous
pages before using the drill/driver.
Treat the battery pack with care and within the guidelines of this manual. If the pack does
become immersed in water or any fluids, or is subject to a severe drop etc, or it does not
operate within the guidelines of this manual, immediately STOP using the battery pack and
have it checked.
During operation avoid overloading the drill/driver. If the drill/driver is overloaded it will
automatically STOP. Overloading may occur for a number of reasons including when the
drill/driver is pushed too hard or when using a drill bit or attachment greater than what is
specified. If you do overload the drill/driver during operation refer to the “Overload” section
in this manual.
Note When the battery of the drill/driver is at the lower end of the charge, the drill/driver is
more susceptible to the overload condition.
Running the drill/driver at close to maximum load, or continual resetting of the overload will
cause the battery pack to overheat. When a preset cell temperature is detected, the battery
pack will automatically STOP operating and will not restart until the battery pack has cooled
to a safe level.
In this condition, DO NOT force cool the pack by placing in a freezer or similar device.
Refer to the “Overload” section in this manual.
Another feature of the drill/battery pack is the low voltage cut out feature. This feature
operates when the voltage drops below a preset value. When this occurs the tool will
automatically stop operating. To correct the situation you need to either insert another
charged battery into the drill/driver or recharge the existing battery, and then proceed with
the drilling/driving application.
Note Attempting to restart the tool in this condition without either recharging the battery
or installing a battery with charge will lead to drill/driver restarting and then stopping again
after only a few seconds of operation.
These safety devices have been fitted for the safety, reliability and life of the tool.
