Using an extension cable

An extension cord should not be used unless

absolutely necessary. Use an approved triple-core

extension cable suitable for the power input of your

charger (see technical data). The minimum conductor

size is 0.5 mm

; the maximum length is 30 m.

Assembly and adjustment

Prior to assembly and adjustment,

always remove the battery pack.

Always switch OFF the tool before

inserting or removing the battery pack.

Battery pack (fig. A)

Charging the battery pack

When charging the battery pack for the first time, or

after prolonged storage, it will only accept an 80%

charge. After several charge and discharge cycles,

the battery pack will attain full capacity.

Always check the mains prior to charging the battery

pack. If the mains is functioning but the battery pack

does not charge, take your charger to an authorised

DEWALT repair agent. Whilst charging, the charger

and the battery pack may become warm to touch.

This is a normal condition and does not indicate a

problem.

Do not charge the battery pack at

ambient temperatures <4 °C or >40 °C.

Recommended charging temperature:

approx. 24 °C.

• To charge the battery pack (8), insert it into the

charger (10) as shown and plug in the charger.

Be sure that the battery pack is fully seated in the

charger. The red charging indicator (11) will blink.

After approx. 1 hour, it will stop blinking and

remain on. The battery pack is now fully charged.

The battery pack can be removed at any time or

left in the connected charger indefinitely.

Inserting and removing the battery pack

• Insert the battery pack into the pistol grip (7) until

it clicks in place.

• To remove the battery pack, press the two

release buttons (9) simultaneously and pull the

pack out of the pistol grip (7).

Inserting and removing a bit (fig. A & B)

This DEWALT Cordless Power Tool is equipped with

a bit compartment (6).

• Open the chuck by turning the sleeve (12)

counterclockwise and insert the bit shank.

• Tighten firmly by turning the sleeve clockwise

while holding the rear part of the chuck with one

hand.

• To remove the bit, proceed in reverse order.

DW976 & DW996 - Selecting the operating mode

(fig. C)

The percussion drills can be used in two operating

modes:

Drilling: for steel, wood and plastics.

Percussion drilling: simultaneous rotating

and impacting for concrete and masonry

drilling operations.

• Select the required operating mode by aligning

the symbol on the mode selector (4) with the

arrow (13) on the housing.

Forward/Reverse slider (fig. D)

• To select forward or reverse rotation, use the

forward/reverse slider (2) as shown (see arrows

on tool).

Always release the variable speed switch

and wait until the motor has come to a

complete standstill before changing the

direction of rotation.

Two gear selector (fig. C)

Your tool is fitted with a two gear selector (3) to vary

the speed/torque ratio.

1 low speed/high torque (drilling large holes or

driving large screws)

2 high speed/low torque (smaller holes, drilling in

wood)

For speed rates, refer to the technical data.

Always push the two gear selector

completely forward or completely back.

Do not change gears at full speed or

during use.
