VARIABLE SPEED CONTROLLED

TRIGGER SWITCH

Your tool is equipped with a variable speed trigger switch. The tool speed can be controlled from the minimum to the maximum nameplate RPM by the pressure you apply to the trigger. Apply more pressure to increase the speed and release pressure to decrease speed. This accurate speed control enables you to drill without center punching. It also permits you to use as a power screwdriver. Bits are available for driving screws as well as running bolts and nuts.

FORWARD/REVERSING LEVER &

TRIGGER LOCK

Your tool is equipped with a forward/ reversing lever and trigger lock located above the trigger (Fig. 1). This lever was designed for changing rotation of the chuck, and for locking the trigger in an “OFF” position to help prevent accidental starts and accidental battery discharge.

*FORWARD/REVERSE INDICATOR LIGHTS Your tool is equipped with lights which indicates the rotation of the chuck.

For forward rotation, (with chuck pointed away from you) move the lever to the far left and the green indicator will light up.

For reverse rotation move the lever to the far right and the red indicator light will light up .

To activate trigger lock move lever to the center off position.

! CAUTION	Do not change direction of
	rotation until the tool
	rotation until the tool

comes to a complete stop. Shifting during rotation of the chuck can cause damage to the tool.

ADJUSTABLE CLUTCH

Your tool features 26 clutch settings. Output torque will increase as the clutch ring, is

rotated from 1 to 25. The drill “ ” position will lock up the clutch to permit drilling and driving heavyduty work, and also enables bits to be changed quickly and easily in the keyless chuck.

BRAKE

When the trigger switch is released it activates the brake to stop the chuck quickly.

This is especially useful in the repetitive driving and removal of screws.

GEAR SHIFTING

Your tool is equipped with two separate gear ranges, low gear and high gear. Low gear provides high-torque and slower drilling speeds for heavy duty work or for driving screws. High gear provides faster speeds for drilling lighter work. To change speeds slide switch, to the high or low position.

* AUXILIARY HANDLE

The auxiliary handle will provide additional control, support and guidance for the tool. The handle can be positioned on either side of the tool. To mount, insert mounting bolt into mounting hole, and simply thread handle onto bolt until tight.
