INTRODUCTION
DOUBLE INSULATION Is a concept Ill safety, in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the
usual three wire grounded power cord and grounded
supply system. Wherever there is electric current in
the tOOl there are two complete sets of insulattan to
protect the user. All exposed metal parts are isolated
from the Internal metal motor components with prctactlng insulation,

IMPORTANT -- Servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the
system and should be performed only by a qualified
service technician. For service we suggest you
return the tool to your nearest Sears Store for repair.
Always use original factory replacement parts when
servicing.

MAKE SURE YOUR EXTENSION
CORD IS IN
GOOD CONDITION.
When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. A wire gage size (A,W.G.)
of at least 16 is recommended for an extension

KNOW YOUR ELECTRONIC DRILL
Before attempting
to use your drill, familiarize
yourseif with all operating features and safety requirements. See Figure 1,

on!y,
REVERSIBLE
YOUr electronic drill has the feature of being reversible, The direction of rotation Is controlled by s lever
located above the trigger switch. See Figure I. W_th
dr he d n normal operating position the direction
of rotation lever should be positioned to the right of
the switch for qriglng. The drill d_rectlon is reversed
when the _ever is to the left of the switch. THE
DESIGN OF THE SWITCH WILL NOT PERMIT
CHANGING
DIRECTION
OF ROTATION WHILE
DRILL IS RUNNING, RELEASE THE SWITCH TRiGGER AND ALLOW THE DRILL TO STOP SEFORE
CHANGING
ITS DIRECTION. NOTE: YOUR DRILL
WILL NOT RUN UNLESS THE SWITCH LEVER IS
PUSHED FULLY TO LEFT OR RIGHT.
LOCK-ON SWITCH
The switch of your electronic drill is equipped with a
"lock.on"
feature for added utility and convenience
when drilling in soft woods or soft metals. TO lockon, depress the trigger of the switch, push In the
lock button located on the side of the handle, then
while holding the lock button pushed In, release the
trigger, To release the lock, depress the trigger and
raleaae it.

VARIABLE SPEED
Your alectronic
ddll has avadable
speed control
selector designed to allow operator control of speed
and torque limits. See Figure 1. To increase the
speed and torque of your electronic drill, hold your
drill in normal operating position and turn the
variable speed control selector clockwise. Turn
counterclockwise to decrease the speed and torque
of your electronic drill. If you desire to lock the
switch on at a given speed, pull the trigger of the

the handle, then while the holding lock button pushed in release the trigger. Next, adjust the variable
speed control selector until the desired s,peed Is
reached. NOTE: IF THE VARIABLE SPEED CON.
TROL SELECTOR
IS FULLY TURNED
IN THE

DIRECTION
(ZERO SET.

IF YOU DESIRE NOT TO USE TH E VARIABLE SPEED

SPEED OF YOUR ELECTRONIC DRILL TO BE FULLY
CONTROLLED BY THE AMOUNT OF SWITCH TRIG.
GER DEPRESSION.
The following guidelines may be used In determlnin_gcorrect speed for various applications:
L(_W speed is ideal when minimum speed and power
is required. For example: starting holes without
center punching, mixing
paint, and drilti_g in
ceramics.
MEDIUM speed is suitable for drilling hard metals,
plastics, and laminates,
HIGH speed produces best results when maximum
bower is requLred. For example: drilling in wood; soft
metals such as aluminum, brass, and copper, and
when using ddvlng accessories.

POWER CORD
See Figure 6.
An added feature of your new e_ectronic drill is an
extra-long 10' power cord that stays soft and flexible
in cord weather, The plug design is shaped 8o that it
won't snag on your work during use. A molded cord
clip on the plug makes cord storage easier.
DRILLING
See Figure 7,
1.

Depress and release the switch trigger to be sure
your drill is in the "Off" position before connecting it to power supply.
Check the direction of rotation lever for correct
setting (forward or reverse).

Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or with
clamps to keep tt from turning as the drill bit
rotates,

Plug your drill into power supply source.

6. Depress the switch trigger to start your drill. DO
not lock the switch "On" for Jobs where the drill
may need to be stopped suddenly.

Fig. 6

Move the ddll bit into the workplece applying only enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do
not force your drill or apply side pressure to
slon ate a hole. Let your drill and bit do the work.
See _=lgure 7.

When drilling hard smooth surfaces use a center
punch to mark the desired hole location. This will
prevent the drill bit from slipping oft center as the
hole is started, However, the variable speed feature
allows starting holes without center punching it
desired. TO accomplish this, simply operate your
drill at a low speed until the hole is started.
When drilling metals use a light oll on the drill bit to
keep it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life
of the bit and tncrease the drilling action,
If the bit jams in the workplace or if your drill stalls,
stop the tool Immediately. Remove the bit from the
workpiece and determine the reason for Jamming.
Avoid running your drill at low speeds for extended
periods of time. At lower speeds under constant
usage, your drill may become overheated, It this occurs, operate drill without a load and at full speed to
cool it more quickly.

Figure 10.
6. Remove chuck key.

TO TIGHTEN CHUCK
The chuck may at times become loose on the spindle and develop a wobble. Also, the chuck screw
may become loose causing the chuck Jaws to bind
and prevent them from closing. To tighten, follow
these steps:

GENERAL
Only the parts shown on parts list, page eleven, are
intended to be repaired or replaced by the customer.
All other parts represent an important part of the
double insulation system and should be serviced only by a qualified service technician,
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts.
Most plastics are susceptible to various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their
use, Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust,
etc.

When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats,
sports cars, etc, it has been found that they are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature
failure, as the fiberglass chips and grindings are
highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutator,
etc. Consequently it is not recommended that this
tool be used for extended work on any fiberglass
material. Curing any use on fiberglass it is extremely
im_ortant that the tool is cleaned frequently by blowing with an air et. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GOG.

EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss
of power. To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent tool overheating, follow the recommended cord
sizes on the chart below, When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords suitable for outdoor
