tion of the drill using the forward/reverse switch when the trigger is NOT depressed.

FORWARD / REVERSE SWITCH

This switch (4) will allow you to change the direc- tion of the motor while the trigger switch is not de- pressed. 7

Drilling uses the forward mode. The reverse mode is intended for the removal of screws.

DRILLING POSITIONS

This symbol indicates the “DRILLING MODE”. Used for all normal drilling (Wood, Aluminium, and Steel) in this mode the clutch is deactivated.

This symbol indicates the “HAMMER MODE”. This mode will activate hammer action, whilst drilling. For best results in hammer mode, set the gear selector to high gear.

TORQUE ADJUSTMENT / HAMMER SELECTION COLLAR

By rotating the torque adjustment / hammer selec- tion collar (2) behind the chuck, it is possible to adjust the torque to each of 20 settings, or select hammer action or the drill setting.

The range of 20 torque settings allows better con- trol when using the drill as a screwdriver as it pre- vents over-tightening of the screws.

The symbols circling the collar are used to indi- cate the level of torque. The larger the symbol on the collar, the higher torque and the larger the fastener which can be driven. To select any of the symbols, rotate the collar (2) until the desired symbol aligns with the arrow head indicator on the housing.

2 SPEED GEARBOX

The 2 Speed Gearbox allows you to select a gear with the optimum speed and torque to suit the ap- plication.

NOTE. When changing the gear selector ensure the drill is not operating.

1.To select the LOW gear (low speed, high torque setting), push the gear selector (13) forward, towards the chuck. The word LOW will be dis- played. 8

2.To select the HIGH gear (high speed, low torque setting), push the gear selector (13) back, away from the chuck. The word HIGH will be dis- played.

INSERTING AND REMOVING BITS

The drill is fittedwithautospindlelockwhichmeans if you try and rotate the chuck by hand the spindle of the drill will automatically lock. This means you only need to grasp the chuck and rotate the chuck housing to remove or fit accessories.

This drill has a keyless chuck, hence a chuck key is not needed to secure a bit in the drill. Always set the forward/reverse switch (4) to the locked ‘OFF’ position when installing and removing bits. It is also recommended to remove the battery pack to avoid unintentional starting.

1.Open the chuck jaws by firmly holding the chuck housing and rotating the housing in an anti-clockwise direction. Open the jaws suffi- ciently so as to fit the desired accessory. 9

2.Ensure the accessory is fully inserted, so that the jaws of the chuck grip onto the flat section of the accessory.

3.To firmly clamp the accessory in the chuck, grasp the chuck housing and rotate the chuck housing in a clockwise direction. Ensure the bit is retained firmly or damage to the chuck jaws can result.

4.To remove the accessory, open the chuck jaws by firmly holding the chuck housing and rotat- ing the housing in an anti clockwise direction. Open the jaws sufficiently so as to remove the specific accessory.

ADJUSTABLE SIDE HANDLE

1.Turn the side handle clamp knob (6) anti-clock- wise to loosen the collar fully and slip it over the chuck (1) onto the drill. 10

2.Adjust the position of the side handle (5) to suit the application and tighten the side handle clamp knob (6) to secure it in place.

DRILLING

Drilling metals

▪For maximum performance, use high speed steel bits for metal or steel drilling.

▪Ensure that the torque adjustment / hammer se- lection collar (2) is in normal drilling mode.

▪Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit from slipping off the starting point.

▪Always clamp sheet metal.

▪Support thin metal with a block of wood to avoid distorting it.

▪Use a punch to mark the centre of the hole.

▪Use a suitable lubricant for the material you are working on.
