Protecting The Environment - Black and Decker XTC18BK Manual De Instrucciones

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)
N
to the drilling position by aligning the symbol with the
marking (20).
For drilling in masonry, set the collar (3) to the hammer
N
drilling position by aligning the symbol
marking (20).
For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting.
N
If you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as
follows:
Set the collar (3) to the lowest torque setting.
N
Tighten the first screw.
N
If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is
N
achieved, increase the collar setting and continue
tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct
setting. Use this setting for the remaining screws.
Two-gear selector (fig. G)
For drilling in steel and for screwdriving applications,
N
slide the two-gear selector (5) towards the rear of the tool
(1st gear).
For drilling in materials other than steel, slide the two-
N
gear selector (5) towards the front of the tool (2nd gear).
Drilling/screwdriving
Select forward or reverse rotation using the forward/
N
reverse slider (2).
To switch the tool on, press the switch (1). The tool speed
N
depends on how far you press the switch.
To switch the tool off, release the switch.

Hints for optimum use
Drilling
Always apply a light pressure in a straight line with the
N
drill bit.
Just before the drill tip breaks through the other side of
N
the workpiece, decrease pressure on the tool.
Use a block of wood to back up workpieces that may
N
splinter.
Use spade bits when drilling large diameter holes in
N
wood.
Use HSS drill bits when drilling in metal.
N
Use masonry bits when drilling in soft masonry.
N
Use a lubricant when drilling metals other than cast iron
N
and brass.
Make an indentation using a centre punch at the centre of
N
the hole to be drilled in order to improve accuracy.
Screwdriving
Always use the correct type and size of screwdriver bit.
N
If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small
N
amount of washing liquid or soap as a lubricant.
Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straight line
N
with the screw.
