Dewalt DC925 Drill Instructions
The Dewalt DC925 is a heavy duty 1/2-inch, cordless hammerdrill/drill/driver. Powered by an 18-volt DC motor that produces 500 watts of power, the DC925 has a patented three-speed transmission to allow matching the drill speed and torque to the application. Its self-tightening 1/2-inch chuck automatically tightens during the drilling process, insuring maximum bit grip. In hammerdrill mode, it can produce 34,000 blows-per-minute for tough masonry drilling. The DC925 weighs 2.5 pounds and operates off a rechargeable 18-volt battery pack. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
-
Battery Pack
-
1
Make sure that the battery pack is fully charged.
-
2
Line up the notch inside the drill's handle with battery pack. Firmly slide the pack into the handle until the lock snaps in place.
-
-
3
Remove the battery pack by pressing the two release buttons on opposite sides of the battery pack and sliding the battery pack out of the drill handle.
Self-Tightening Chuck
-
4
Clamp a drill bit or other tool in the self-tightening chuck by first locking the trigger in the "OFF" position.
-
5
Grasp the chuck sleeve with one hand while using the other hand to hold the tool. Rotate the sleeve counterclockwise to open the chuck far enough to accept the bit.
-
6
Insert the drill bit about 3/4-inch into the chuck. Rotate the chuck sleeve clockwise as far as it will turn. As the drill is operated, the chuck will self-tighten onto the bit.
Three Speed Transmission
-
7
Select the torque and speed setting for your application by sliding the gear shift lever.
-
8
Select position "1", which is furthest to the left, for the highest torque.
-
9
Select position "2" in the middle for medium torque and speed.
-
10
Select the highest speed setting by turning to position "3" which is all the way to the right.
Standard Drilling
-
11
Turn the collar to the symbol representing either drilling or hammerdrilling mode according to your application.
-
12
Use the gear shifter to select the desired speed/torque range.
-
13
Pull the trigger to begin drilling. Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Do not push so hard that you stall the motor or deflect the bit.
-
14
Hold the drill tightly to control twisting action caused by torque.
Hammerdrill Operation
-
15
Turn the collar to the hammerdrill symbol.
-
16
Pull the trigger to begin drilling. Drill straight, keeping the body of the drill in line with the bit. Apply just enough force to keep the drill bit from bouncing.
-
17
Use carbide-tipped bits or masonry bits for drilling in masonry.
Screwdriver Operation
-
18
Select the desired speed/torque range using the gear shift lever.
-
19
Clamp the screwdriver bit in the chuck in the same manner as you would with a standard drill bit.
-
20
Make a few test runs driving screws in scrap pieces to determine the proper torque and speed for the size of the screw and the material.
