Tool Use and Care  
parts, breakage of parts, and any other condi-  
tion that may affect the tool’s operation. If dam-  
aged, have the tool serviced before using. Many  
accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.  
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and  
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Hold-  
ing the work by hand or against your body is un-  
stable and may lead to loss of control.  
Use only accessories that are recommended by  
the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that  
may be suitable for one tool, may become hazard-  
ous when used on another tool.  
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your  
application. The correct tool will do the job better  
and safer at the rate for which it is designed.  
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or  
off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch  
is dangerous and must be repaired.  
Service  
Tool service must be performed only by quali-  
fied repair personnel. Service or maintenance per-  
formed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk  
of injury.  
Disconnect the plug from power source before  
making any adjustments, changing accessories,  
or storing the tool. Such preventive safety mea-  
sures reduce the risk of starting the tool acciden-  
tally.  
When servicing a tool, use only identical replace-  
ment parts. Follow instructions in the Mainte-  
nance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized  
parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions  
may create a risk of electric shock or injury.  
Store idle tools out of the reach of children and  
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in  
the hands of untrained users.  
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp  
and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp  
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier  
to control.

ing this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or  
fire.  
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently  
and use them to instruct others who may use  
this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan them  
these instructions also.  
Check damaged parts. Before further use of the  
tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should  
be carefully checked to determine that it will  
operate properly and perform its intended func-  
tion. Check for alignment of moving parts, bind-  
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts, mount-  
ing, and any other conditions that may affect its  
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged  
should be properly repaired or replaced by an  
authorized service center. Following this rule will  
reduce the risk of shock, fire, or serious injury.  
WARNING:  
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,  
grinding, drilling, and other construction activities  
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth  
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples  
of these chemicals are:  
• lead from lead-based paints,  
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement  
and other masonry products, and  
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-  
treated lumber.  
Do not abuse cord. Never carry the tool by the  
cord or yank it to disconnect it from the recep-  
tacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp  
edges. Following this rule will reduce the risk of elec-  
tric shock or fire.  
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending  
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce  
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well  
ventilated area, and work with approved safety  
equipment, such as those dust masks that are  
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

WARNING:  
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with  
side shields when operating your drill. Failure to do  
so could result in dust, shavings, loose particles or  
foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, causing  
possible serious injury.  
DRILLING  
See Figure 8.  
When drilling hard smooth surfaces use a center punch  
to mark desired hole location. This will prevent the drill  
bit from slipping off center as the hole is started. How-  
ever, the low speed feature allows starting holes with-  
out center punching if desired. To accomplish this, sim-  
ply operate your drill at a low speed until the hole is  
started.  
The material to be drilled should be secured in a vise or  
with clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit ro-  
tates.  
Fig. 8  
LEVEL DRILLING  
See Figures 8 and 9.  
Hold tool firmly and place the bit at the point to be drilled.  
Depress the switch trigger to start tool.  
Move the drill bit into the workpiece applying only  
enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force or  
apply side pressure to elongate a hole.  
Two levels are recessed in the motor housing of your  
drill-driver. One is located on top, while the other is  
located on the end. They can be used to keep drill bits  
level during both horizontal and vertical drilling  
operations.

MAINTENANCE  
WARNING:  
When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or  
cause product damage.  
GENERAL  
DOUBLE INSULATION  
All parts represent an important part of the double  
insulation system and should be serviced only at an  
authorized service center.  
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power  
tools, which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire  
groundedpowercord.Allexposedmetalpartsareisolated  
fromtheinternalmetalmotorcomponentswithprotecting  
insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be  
grounded.  
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most  
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types  
of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their  
use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.  
IMPORTANT  
Servicingofatoolwithdoubleinsulationrequiresextreme  
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  
authorized service center for repair. Always use original  
factory replacement parts when servicing.  
WARNING:  
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petro-  
leum-based products, penetrating oils, etc. come in  
contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that  
can damage, weaken or destroy plastic.  
EXTENSION CORDS  
It has been found that electric tools are subject to  
accelerated wear and possible premature failure when  
theyareusedonfiberglassboats,sportscars,wallboard,  
spacklingcompounds,orplaster.Thechipsandgrindings  
from these materials are highly abrasive to electric tool  
parts, such as bearings, brushes, commutators, etc.  
Consequently, it is not recommended that this tool be  
used for extended work on any fiberglass material,  
wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. During any  
use on these materials, it is extremely important that the  
tool is cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet.  
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of  
power. To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent  
tool overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy  
enough to carry the current the tool will draw.  
A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is recommended  
for an extension cord 100 feet or less in length. When  
working outdoors, use an extension cord that is suitable  
for outdoor use. The cord's jacket will be marked WA.  
CAUTION:  
LUBRICATION  
Keep extension cords away from the drilling area and  
position the cord so that it will not get caught on lum-  
ber, tools, etc., during drilling operation.  
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a  
sufficient amount of high-grade lubricant for the life of  
the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore,  
no further lubrication is required.  
WARNING:  
WARNING:  
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged  
replace immediately. Never use tool with a damaged  
cord since touching the damaged area could cause  
electrical shock resulting in serious injury.  
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with  
side shields during power tool operation or when  
blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust  
mask.  
Extension cords suitable for use with your drill are  
available at your nearest authorized service center.
