
Use
Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
Warning! Before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings, check for
the location of wiring and pipes.
Charging the battery (fig. A)
The battery needs to be charged before first use and
whenever it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs that were
easily done before. When charging the battery for the first
time, or after prolonged storage, it will only accept an 80%
charge. After several charge and discharge cycles, the battery
will attain full capacity. The battery may become warm while
charging; this is normal and does not indicate a problem.
Warning! Do not charge the battery at ambient temperatures
below 4 °C or above 40 °C. Recommended charging
temperature: approx. 24 °C.
Using the 3 hr charger
To charge the battery (8), remove it from the tool and slide

the charger receptacle (10) onto the battery.
Plug in the charger (9).

The battery will become warm while charging. After approx.
3 hours of charging, the battery will be sufficiently charged for
use in regular applications. After approx. 6 hours of charging,
the battery will be fully charged.
Remove the charger receptacle from the battery.

Using the 1hr charger
To charge the battery (8), remove it from the tool and

insert it into the charger (9). The battery will only fit into
the charger in one way. Do not force. Be sure that the
battery is fully seated in the charger.
Plug in the charger.

Check if the red charging indicator (11) lights up. If the

green end of charge indicator (12) lights up now instead,
the battery is too hot and cannot be charged. If this
happens, remove the battery from the charger, let the
battery cool down for approx. 1 hour and re-insert it.
After approx. 1 hour of charging, the red charging indicator
(11) will stop lighting and the green end of charge indicator
(12) will light up. The battery is now fully charged.
Remove the battery from the charger.

Checking the battery condition (fig. E)
This tool is fitted with a battery charge indicator, which allows
you to check the condition of the battery.
Press and hold down the button (17).

Check to see how many of the lights (18) are on:

1 light
2 lights
3 lights
Selecting the direction of rotation (fig. F)
For drilling and for tightening screws, use forward (clockwise)
rotation. For loosening screws or removing a jammed drill bit,
use reverse (counterclockwise) rotation.
To select forward rotation, push the forward/reverse slider

(2) to the left.
To select reverse rotation, push the forward/reverse slider

to the right.
To lock the tool, set the forward/reverse slider into the

centre position.
Selecting the operating mode or torque (fig. G)
This tool is fitted with a collar to select the operating mode and
to set the torque for tightening screws. Large screws and hard
workpiece materials require a higher torque setting than small
screws and soft workpiece materials. The collar has a wide
range of settings to suit your application.
For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar (3) to

the drilling position by aligning the symbol with the
marking (19).
For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting.

If you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as
follows:
- Set the collar (3) to the lowest torque setting.
- Tighten the first screw.
- If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is
achieved, increase the collar setting and continue
tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct
setting. Use this setting for the remaining screws.
CP122/CP142 - Drilling in masonry (fig. G & H)
For drilling in masonry, set the collar (3) to the hammer

drilling position by aligning the symbol with the marking
(19).
Slide the two-gear selector (5) towards the front of the tool

(2nd gear).
CP122/CP142 - Two-gear selector (fig. H)
For drilling in steel and for screwdriving applications, slide

the two-gear selector (5) towards the rear of the tool
(1st gear).
