Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the 18v XR battery is fully charged before first use. Insert the battery into the designated slot until it clicks into place. To insert an SDS+ bit, pull back the locking collar on the chuck, insert the bit shank fully, and release the collar. Ensure the bit is securely locked.
Compatibility: This tool uses the DeWALT 18v XR battery system. It is compatible with DeWALT 18v XR batteries of varying amp-hour ratings. It requires SDS+ bits and chisels; standard drill bits are not compatible.
Care: Keep the tool clean by wiping it with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Ensure the ventilation slots are clear of dust and debris. Store the drill, battery, and charger in a clean, dry place, preferably in the included Tstak case. Regularly inspect bits and chisels for wear and replace as needed. Avoid exposing the tool or battery to extreme temperatures or moisture.
