DWD024, DWD024S, DWD025S

The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING: The declared vibration

emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.22 ENGLISH Markus Rompel Director Engineering

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury,

read the instruction manual. General Power Tool Safety Warnings WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) 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. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) 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. b) 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. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) 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. e) 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.

EC-Declaration of Conformity MACHINERY DIRECTIVE

VARIABLE SPEED PERCUSSION DRILL

DWD024, DWD024S, DWD024S-XE, DWD025S-XE DEWALT declares that these products described under Technical Data are in compliance with: 2006/42/EC, EN60745-1:2009 +A11:2010, EN60745-2-1:2010. These products also comply with Directive 2004/108/EC (until 19.04.2016), 2014/30/EU (from

20.04.2016) and 2011/65/EU. For more information,

please contact DEWALT at the following address or refer to the back of the manual. The undersigned is responsible for compilation of the technical file and makes this declaration on behalf of DEWALT.23 ENGLISH c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

a) 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. Additional Specifi c Safety Rules for Percussion Drills

• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

• Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.

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

• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control. f) 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.

a) 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. b) 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. c) 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. d) 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. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) 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.

4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.24 ENGLISH Package Contents The package contains: 1 Drill 1 Chuck key (DWD024) 1 Depth rod 1 Side handle 1 Instruction manual

Trigger Switch (fi g. 1) To start the drill, depress the trigger switch; to stop the drill, release the trigger switch. NOTE: Use lower speeds for starting holes without a center punch, drilling in metal or plastics, driving screws or drilling ceramics. Higher speeds are better for drilling wood and composition boards and using abrasive and polishing accessories. VARIABLE SPEED A variable speed trigger switch (a) permits speed control—the farther the trigger is depressed, the higher the speed of the drill. For continuous operation, press and hold the variable speed switch, press the lock-on button (b), then release the switch. To stop continuous operation, press the switch briefly and release it. Always switch the tool off when work is finished and before unplugging. Proper Hand Position (fi g. 9)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

serious personal injury, ALWAYS use proper hand position as shown in figure 9.

4. Adjust the drilling depth as shown in figure 3.

1. Open the chuck jaws by turning collar by hand

and insert the shank of the bit about 19 mm (3/4") into chuck. Tighten the chuck collar by hand.

2. Place chuck key in each of the three holes, and

tighten in clockwise direction. It’s important to tighten chuck with all three holes. To release the bit, turn the chuck counterclockwise in just one hole, then loosen the chuck by hand. REMOVAL OF KEYED CHUCK (FIG. 4) Tighten the chuck around the shorter end of a hex key. Using a soft hammer, strike the key sharply in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front of the tool. This will loosen the chuck so that it can be removed by hand. KEYED CHUCK INSTALLATION (FIG. 5) Screw the chuck on by hand as far as it will go. Insert the shorter end of a hex key and strike it in the clockwise direction with a soft hammer. Keyless Chuck (fi g. 1, 6–8)

DWD024S, DWD024S-XE, DWD025S-XE

The DWD024S, DWD024S-XE and DWD025S-XE feature a keyless chuck (d) for greater convenience. TO INSERT A DRILL BIT OR OTHER ACCESSORY

1. Grasp the rear half of the chuck with one hand

and use your other hand to rotate the front half counterclockwise, as shown in Figure 6. Rotate far enough so that the chuck opens sufficiently to accept the desired accessory.

2. Insert the bit or other accessory about 19 mm

(3/4") into the chuck and tighten securely by holding the rear half of the chuck and rotating the front portion in the clockwise direction. When the chuck is nearly tightened, you will hear a clicking sound. After 4–6 clicks, the chuck is securely tightened around the accessory.

3. To release the accessory, repeat step 1 listed

WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten

drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the front part of the chuck27 ENGLISH

7. With variable speed drills there is no need to

center punch the point to be drilled. Use a slow speed to start the hole and accelerate by squeezing the trigger harder when the hole is deep enough to drill without the bit skipping out.

Start drilling with slow speed and increase to full power while applying firm pressure on the tool. A smooth even flow of metal chips indicates the proper drilling rate. Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and brass which should be drilled dry. NOTE: Large [5/16" (8 mm) to 1/2" (13 mm)] holes in steel can be made easier if a pilot hole [5/32" (4 mm) to 3/16" (5 mm)] is drilled first.

Start drilling with slow speed and increase to full power while applying firm pressure on the tool. Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drills used for metal. These bits may overheat unless pulled out frequently to clear chips from the flutes. Work that is apt to splinter should be backed up with a block of wood.

When drilling in masonry, use carbide-tipped bits rated for percussion drilling and be certain that the bits are sharp. Use a constant and firm force on the tool to drill most effectively. A smooth, even flow of dust indicates the proper drilling rate. MAINTENANCE Your DEWALT power tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

injury, turn unit off and disconnect tool from power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set- ups or when making repairs. Be sure the trigger switch is in the OFF position. An accidental start-up can cause injury. Motor Brushes DEWALT uses an advanced brush system which automatically stops the drill when the brushes wear out. This prevents serious damage to the motor. New brush assemblies are available at authorized DEWALT service centers. Always use identical replacement parts.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

serious personal injury, ALWAYS hold securely in anticipation of a sudden reaction. Proper hand position requires one hand on the main handle (j), with the other hand on the side handle (g). Drilling

WARNING: To reduce the risk

of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

personal injury, ALWAYS ensure workpiece is anchored or clamped firmly. If drilling thin material, use a wood “back-up” block to prevent damage to the material.

1. Use sharp drill bits only. For WOOD, use the

low speed setting and twist drill bits, spade bits, power auger bits, or hole saws. For METAL, use the low speed setting and steel twist drill bits or hole saws. For MASONRY, such as brick, cement, cinder block, etc., use carbide-tipped bits rated for percussion drilling.

2. Always apply pressure in a straight line with the

bit. Use enough pressure to keep drill biting, but do not push hard enough to stall the motor or deflect the bit.

3. Hold tool firmly with both hands to control the

twisting action of the drill. CAUTION: Drill may stall if overloaded causing a sudden twist. Always expect the stall. Grip the drill firmly to control the twisting action and avoid injury.

4. IF DRILL STALLS, it is usually because

it is being overloaded or improperly used. RELEASE TRIGGER IMMEDIATELY, remove drill bit from work, and determine cause of stalling. DO NOT CLICK TRIGGER ON AND OFF IN AN ATTEMPT TO START A

5. To minimize stalling or breaking through the

material, reduce pressure on drill and ease the bit through the last fractional part of the hole.

6. Keep the motor running when pulling the bit

back out of a drilled hole. This will help prevent jamming.28 ENGLISH Separate collection of used products and packaging allows materials to be recycled and used again. Re-use of recycled materials helps prevent environmental pollution and reduces the demand for raw materials.
