Safety Information
Always follow basic safety precautions when using power tools and accessories to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.
- Read all instructions: Familiarize yourself with the operation and limitations of the attachment and the screwdriver.
- Wear eye protection: Always wear safety glasses or goggles when operating power tools.
- Secure workpiece: Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
- Keep work area clean: Cluttered areas invite accidents.
- Do not overreach: Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
- Disconnect power: Always remove the battery pack from the screwdriver before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool.
- Use correct accessory: Do not use the attachment for any purpose other than driving screws.
Setup
The BDCSRAA Right Angle Attachment is compatible with BLACK+DECKER 4V MAX cordless screwdrivers, specifically models BDCS20, BDCS30, and BDCS40.
- Ensure Screwdriver is Off: Before attaching, ensure your cordless screwdriver is turned off and the battery is removed for safety.
- Align and Attach: Align the hexagonal shaft of the right angle attachment with the chuck of your compatible BLACK+DECKER 4V MAX cordless screwdriver. Push the attachment firmly into the chuck until it clicks into place or is securely seated.

Operating Instructions
The right angle attachment allows you to access fasteners in confined spaces.
- Select Appropriate Bit: Choose the correct 1/4 inch hex drive screw bit for your fastener.
- Position the Attachment: The pivoting 90-degree head allows you to orient the bit for optimal access. Position the angled head so the drill bit sits flush with the screw head to prevent stripping or damaging the material.
- Apply Gentle Pressure: With the bit engaged in the screw head, apply steady, gentle pressure to the screwdriver and activate the tool.
- Control Speed: Use the variable speed control of your cordless screwdriver (if available) to maintain control, especially when starting or finishing a screw.
- Avoid Over-tightening: Be mindful of the torque settings on your screwdriver to prevent over-tightening or damaging the workpiece.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your attachment.
- Cleaning: Keep the attachment clean and free from debris. Wipe with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the attachment in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the attachment for any signs of wear or damage. If damage is observed, discontinue use and replace the attachment.
