ENVIRONMENT Black & Decker cordless tools use nickel cadmium (NiCad) batteries or battery packs which can be charged many times to give long life and repeatedly full power. This symbol indicates th NiCad batteries contained within this unit must be disposed of properly and not discarded in everyday household waste which may be disposed of in an incinerator or landfill site. NiCad batteries can be harmful to the environment and can explode when exposed to fire. Do not incinerate Therefore, when your tool or battery pack needs replacing, think of the protection of our environment. Black & Decker recommends the following:

• Discharge batteries completely by running the unit until the energy is completely discharged and then remove from the tool.

• Take the battery pack to your local dealer or your recycling station. If necessary, contact your local council for disposal information. The collected batteries will be disposed of properly and/or used for recycling purposes whilst protecting the environment. Note: You as a customer are responsible for proper disposal or recycling of the battery pack. CHARGER Your charger accepts Black & Decker 12V NiCad battery packs with a 1.5Ah rating.

MAINS PLUG REPLACEMENT

(U.K. & IRELAND ONLY)

• Should your mains plug need replacing and you are competent to do this, proceed as instructed below. If you are in doubt, contact an authorised repair agent or a qualified electrician.

• Disconnect the plug from the supply.

• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug with bared copper conductors is dangerous if engaged in a live socket outlet.

• Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1).

• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked at the connection points of most good quality plugs. Attach the wires to their respective points in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2) and Blue is for Neutral (N) (4).

• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug ensure that the cable restraint (3) is holding the outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the two leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws. Never use a light socket. Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N) wires to the earth pin marked E or .

USING AN EXTENSION CABLE

An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use an approved extension cable suitable for the power input of your charger (see technical data). The minimum conductor size is 0.5

; the maximum length is 30 m. BATTERY PACK The Battery pack of your drill is not charged when supplied as new. A new Battery, or one that has not been used for an extended period, achieves full performance only after approximately 5 charging and discharging cycles.

CHARGING YOUR CORDLESS DRILL

Before attempting to charge your drill, read all the safety instructions. To charge your drill, proceed as follows:- Put the forward/reverse switch in the centre (lock-off) position. Remove all accessories from the chuck. To remove the battery pack, depress the two release buttons and withdraw the battery pack. Plug the charger into a standard 220/240V socket. Place the pack in the charger. While charging, your battery pack may hum and become warm to touch; this is normal. After normal use your battery pack should be fully charged in 15 minutes. If your power pack has been run down completely, it may take up to 30 minutes to be fully charged. To prolong your power packs life, avoid leaving it on charge for more than 8 hours. Do not charge the battery pack at ambient temperatures < 4°C or > 40°C. Recommended charging temperature 24°C/74°F.

CHARGING INDICATION MODES

• Red charging indicator blinks. This indicates that the battery is being charged.

• Red light remains on. This indicates that the battery is fully charged.

• Red indicator flashes rapidly. This indicates there is a fault. Remove battery from charger and reinsert. If this fails try a new pack. If your new pack also refuses to charge, have your charger tested by an authorised repair agent.

• Red indicator blinks twice. This indicates a temporary problem with the power source; switch off supply and repeat charging process.
