areas and work benches invite injuries.
2. CONSIDERWORKAREAENVIRONMENT.Keep
work area well lit. Do not use tool in presence of
flammable liquids or gases.
IMPORTANT
3. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK BY
PREVENTING BODY CONTACT WITH
GROUNDED SURFACES. For example: Pipes,
radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
Servicing of a tool requires extreme 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 Ryobi Authorized Service Center for
repair. When servicing, use only identical Ryobi replacement
parts.
4. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All
visitors should wear safety glasses and be kept a
safe distance from work area. Do not let visitors
contact tool or extension cord.
WARNING:
5. STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use tools
should be stored in a dry and high or locked-up
place - out of the reach of children.
Do not attempt to operate this tool until you have read
thoroughly and understand completely all instructions,
safety rules, etc. contained in this manual. Failure to
comply can result in accidents involving fire, electric
shock, or serious personal injury. Save this owner's

TWO SPEED GEAR TRAIN
See Figure 5.
Your drill has a two-speed gear train designed for drilling or
driving at LO (1) or HI (2) speeds. A slide switch is located
on top of your drill to select either LO (1) or HI (2) speed.
When using drill in the LO (1) speed range, speed will
decrease and unit will have more power and torque. When
using drill in the HI (2) speed range, speed will increase and
unit will have less power and torque. Use LO (1) speed for
high power and torque applications and HI (2) speed for
fast drilling or driving applications.
To stop, release switch trigger and allow the chuck to come
to a complete stop.
WARNING:
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Therefore,
switch should always be locked when not in use or when
carrying at your side.

■ Remove drill bit from chuck jaws.
DRILLING
See Figure 10.
When drilling hard, smooth surfaces, use a center punch to
mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the drill bit
from slipping off center as the hole is started. However, the
lower speed feature allows starting holes without center
punching if desired. To accomplish this, simply operate your
drill at lower 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 rotates.
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.

WARNING:
TO DECREASE
TORQUE
Be prepared for binding or breakthrough. When these

in the opposite direction, and could cause loss of control
when breaking through material. If you are not prepared,
this loss of control can result in possible serious injury.

When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill bit to keep it
from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit and
increase the drilling action.

trigger immediately. Remove the bit from the workpiece and
determine the reason for jamming.

BATTERIES
Your drill's battery pack is equipped with Nickel-Cadmium
rechargeable batteries. Length of service from each charg-
ing will depend on the type of work you are doing.
CAUTION:
Your drill-driver contains special high temperature
batteries to help prevent battery damage when left on
charge for extended periods of time. However, once the
batteries become fully charged, we recommend that you
unplug the charger from power supply and remove it from
battery pack.
The batteries in this tool have been designed to provide
maximum trouble-free life. However, like all batteries, they
will eventually wear out. Do not disassemble the battery
pack and attempt to replace the batteries. Handling of
these batteries, especially when wearing rings and jewelry,
could result in a serious burn.
To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the
following:
OVERLOAD
■ Store and charge your batteries in a cool area.
Temperatures above normal room temperature will
shorten battery life.
(For Models R10520 and R10530 only)
Your drill has a built-in overload protector to protect the motor
during overloading or prolonged use. The overload protector
automatically activates to break the circuit. When this occurs,
allow your drill to cool a few seconds before resuming
operation.
■ Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Wait for
battery to cool and charge immediately.
■ All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the
temperature, the quicker they lose their charge. If you
store your tool for long periods of time without using it,
recharge the batteries every month or two. This practice
will prolong battery life.
