Installing Bits
Always remove the battery before inserting or removing bits. Select the proper style and size bit for the job.
This tool is equipped with a spindle lock. The chuck can be tightened with one hand, creating higher grip strengths on the bit.
1.To open the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the counterclockwise direction.
When using drill bits, allow the bit to strike the bottom of the chuck. Center the bit in the chuck jaws and lift it about PP1/16” off of
the bottom.
When using screwdriver bits, insert the bit far enough for the chuck jaws to grip the hex of the bit.
2.To close the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the clockwise direction. The bit is secure when the chuck makes a ratcheting sound and the sleeve can not be rotated any further.
3.To remove the bit, turn the sleeve in the coun- terclockwise direction.
NOTE: A ratcheting sound may be heard when the chuck is opened or closed. This noise is part of the locking feature, and does not indicate a problem with the chuck’s operation.
Selecting Hammer, Drill or Drive Action
1.To use the hammerdrilling mode, rotate the application
selector collar until the hammer
symbol appears in line with the arrow. Apply pressure to the bit to engage the hammering mechanism. NOTE: The number selected on the torque selector collar has no effect on operation of the drill in hammer mode.
NOTE: When using carbide bits, do not use wa- ter to settle dust. Do not attempt to drill through steel reinforcing rods. This will damage the carbide bits.
2.To use the drilling only mode,
rotate the application selector collar until the drill symbol appears in line with the arrow. NOTE: The number selected on the torque selector collar has no effect on operation of the drill in drilling mode.
3.To use the driving screws mode rotate the application
selector collar until the drive symbol appears in line with the arrow. Then rotate the torque selector collar until the desired clutch setting appears in line with the arrow.
The adjustable clutch, when properly adjusted, will slip at a preset torque to prevent driving the screw too deep into different materials and to prevent damage to the screw or tool.
