Executive Summary

The Black & Decker® DR202 3/8” Variable Speed/Reversible Drill is a must-have tool for almost any project. This six-pound power tool is light enough to be used for the everyday 'do it yourself' tasks while the five-amp motor is powerful enough for professional carpentry and construction jobs.

The main purpose of the DR202 is to drive and remove screws, and drill holes through various materials such as dry wall, steel, soft and hard woods, and plastics. It operates by taking electrical energy supplied by a standard household power outlet which it converts to rotational energy used within the motor. The rotational energy is transferred to mechanical energy, moving the gears within the motor, which supplies the torque to move the bit. It has variable speed: the farther the trigger is depressed, the higher the speed of the drill. The drill can also be locked for continuous use by squeezing the trigger while pushing in on the trigger lock mechanism. Additionally, the drill has a 8’ electrical cord with a two-prong plug. It has a direction reverse switch: push the switch to the right for forward rotation (clockwise rotation), push the switch to the left for reverse rotation (counterclockwise). The drill has a fifteen-position keyless chuck and a convenient bit holder located on top of the drill.

Product Reassembly Plan

The product's reassembly is best approached by reassembling each "Product Reassembly By Steps" table seen below details a step-by-step process for reassembling the drill.

It is recommended that photographs of parts, assemblies, and stages be used as aides during the disassembly process.

Tool required:
Torx #15 screw driver
Flat-head screwdriver
Needle-nose pliers


Armature Assembly Reassembly Steps
Step Description Tool Required Time Required Difficulty (1-3) Step Photograph
1 Slide red washer over rear end of the armature. Hands 0:15 1

Red washer replaced
2 Slide heat sink over rear end of the armature. The fin side of the heat sink should be closes to the armature core. Hands 0:15 1

4 Replace retaining ring to secure all of the components on the end of the armature.
Note: The retaining ring is easily replaced by positioning the open side of the "C" shaped clamp against the armature and then squeezing the ring into place with pliers.

Motor Assembly Reassembly Steps
Step Description Tool Required Time Required Difficulty (1-3) Step Photograph
1 Slide reverse ring and field together and then secure the two pieces with the 1 7/8"torx screws.
Note: The reverse ring can be combined with the field in two ways. To easily identify the proper orientation hold the field in one hand with the serial numbers on top and slide the reverse ring into position from the left such that the "B" is further away.

Internal Assembly Reassembly Steps
1 Slide the geared end of the motor assembly into the center of the rear bearing. Hands 0:15 1

2 Reconnect power wires into the rear of the reverse ring.
Note: The black wire enters the reverse ring terminal marked with a "B" and the white wire enters the unmarked terminal.

Total reassembly time: 10 minutes, 50 seconds.
*Note: the break down for the difficulty levels are as follows:
1 = easy; requiring little effort.
2 = medium; some prior thinking required.
3 = hard; required multiple attempts; two people recommended.

Post-Reassembly Analysis

Below are a few sample questions that address the final condition of the product, disassembly/reassembly differences and further product recommendations:

- Does your product run the same as it did before you disassembled it?

The product runs the same as it did before the disassembly process. We attribute the successful disassembly and reassembly of the process to the detailed notes and photography making it easy to retrace the steps.

- What were the differences between the disassembly/reassembly processes?

The main differences between the disassembly and the reassembly processes were the attention to detail needed. For example, it's easy to remove all of the small washer, the heat sink, and the red washer, but when returning the armature to its original form, the person doing the reassembly needs to know the order and the orientation of the heat sink so that the product will fit in the drill housing properly. similarly, when combining the field and the reverse ring, there are many opprotunities for mistakes: wire placement and the proper orientation of the reverse ring on the field itself.

Taking good notes and paying close attention to each piece prior to removing it is allowed the group to reassemble the entire product.

Different tools used:
Needle-nose pliers

- What additional recommendations would the group make at the product level

The only area of the drill that the group felt could benefit from modification was the field and reverse ring. The first modification that could be made would be to implement a notch into the field and a protrusion on the reverse ring such that the two could only fit together one way. This would prevent the two from being reassemble improperly. The second modification would be to replace the current system of connecting the wires individually into the reverse ring with a single plug in system which would further reassmbly confussion.reduce faughlty reconstruction of the motor assembly

Housing Reassembly Steps
Step Description Tool Required Time Required Difficulty (1-3) Step Photograph
1 Seat internal assembly into the groves of the drill housing.
Note: Ensure that the serial numbers on the field are towards the top of the drill housing and that the retaining brushes on the armature are still on the copper track.

The internal assembly should slide into place with minimal effort.
