OPERATION
INSTALLING BITS
See Figures 7 - 8.
Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation selector in the center position.
Open or close the chuck jaws to a point where the opening is slightly larger than the bit size you intend to use. Also, raise the front of the drill slightly to keep the bit from falling out of the chuck jaws.
Insert the drill bit.
WARNING:
Make sure to insert the drill bit straight into the chuck jaws. Do not insert the drill bit into the chuck jaws at an angle then tighten, as shown in figure 8. This could cause the drill bit to be thrown from the drill, resulting in possible serious personal injury or damage to the chuck.
Tighten the chuck jaws securely on the bit.
Note: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the arrow marked LOCK to close the chuck jaws. Do not use a wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.
REMOVING BITS
See Figures 7 - 8.
Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation selector in the center position.
Open the chuck jaws.
Note: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the arrow marked UNLOCK to open the chuck jaws. Do not use a wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.
Remove the drill bit.
Caution:
Do not operate switch trigger with middle finger and index finger extended. This could cause fingers to contact moving chuck and may result in a minor injury.
DRILLING
See Figures 9 - 10.
Check the direction of rotation selector for the correct setting (forward or reverse).
Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or with clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit rotates.
Hold the drill firmly and place the bit at the point to be drilled.
