Charging  the battery 
ffig.  C)
The  battery  needs  to be charged
before first use and  whenever it
fails to produce  sufficient power
on jobs that were easily done
before. When charging the
battery for the first time,  or after
prolonged  storage, it will  only
accept an B0%  charge.  After
several  charge  and  discharge
cycles, the  battery will  attain full
capacity.  The  battery  may
become warm  while charging;
this is normal  and  does not
indicate a problem.

Always  hold the tool and
screwdriver  bit in a straight
line  with the  screw.
When screwing in wood,  it is
recommended  to drill  a pilot
hole  with  a depth  equal  to
the  length  of  the  screw.
A pilot  hole  guides  the screw
and  prevents  splintering or
distortion  of the  wood.  For  the
optimum  size  of the pilot  hole,
refer to the  table below.
When screwing in hardwood,
also drill  a clearance  hole  with
a depth  equal  to half the
length  of the  screw.  For  the
optimum  size  of the clearance
hole, refer  to the table  below.
