Electrical Safety; Assembly And Adjustments - DeWalt DCD720 Manual De Instrucciones

Electrical Safety

The electric motor has been designed for one
voltage only. Always check that the battery pack
voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating
plate. Also make sure that the voltage of your
charger corresponds to that of your mains.
Your D WALT charger is double insulated
E
in accordance with EN 60335; therefore
no earth wire is required.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by a specially prepared cord available through the
D WALT service organisation.
E
Mains Plug Replacement
(U.K. & Ireland Only)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
• Safely dispose of the old plug.
• Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in
the plug.
• Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.
WARNING: No connection is to be
made to the earth terminal.
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good
quality plugs. Recommended fuse: 3 A.
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 1 mm 2 ; the maximum length is 30 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable
completely.

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: Prior to assembly and
adjustment, always remove the battery
pack. Always switch off the tool before
inserting or removing the battery pack.
WARNING: Use only D
packs and chargers.
Inserting and Removing the
Battery Pack from the Tool (fi g. 2)
NOTE: For best results, make sure your battery
pack is fully charged. The light will shut off without
warning when the battery is fully discharged.
TO INSTALL THE BATTERY PACK INTO THE TOOL HANDLE
1. Align the battery pack (i) with the rails inside the
tool's handle (fig. 2).
2. Slide it into the handle until the battery pack is
firmly seated in the tool and ensure that it does
not disengage.
TO REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK FROM THE TOOL
1. Press the battery release button (j) and firmly pull
the battery pack out of the tool handle.
2. Insert battery pack into the charger as
described in the charger section of this manual.
Variable Speed Paddle Switch
(fi g. 1)
To turn the tool on, squeeze the paddle switch (a).
To turn the tool off, release the paddle switch. Your
tool is equipped with a brake. The chuck will stop as
soon as the paddle switch is fully released.
The variable speed switch enables you to select
the best speed for a particular application. The
farther you squeeze the paddle, the faster the tool
will operate. Use lower speeds for starting holes
without a centerpunch, drilling in metals or plastics,
driving screws and drilling ceramics. Higher speeds
are better for drilling in wood, wood compositions
and for using abrasive and polishing accessories.
For maximum tool life, use variable speed only for
starting holes or fasteners.
NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is
not recommended. It may damage the switch and
should be avoided.
Forward/Reverse Control Button
(fi g. 1)
A forward/reverse control button (b) determines the
direction of the tool and also serves as a lock-off
button.
To select forward rotation, release the paddle switch
and depress the forward/reverse control button on
the right side of the tool.
To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse
control button on the left side of the tool.
The center position of the control button locks the
WALT battery
tool in the off position.
E
NOTE: When the tool is not in use or being
transported, keep the button in the middle lock
position.
When changing the position of the control button, be
sure the paddle is released.
NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing
the direction of rotation, you may hear a click on
start up. This is normal and does not indicate a
problem.
