Using The Drill
CAUTION: Always make sure that the tool is switched OFF and the battery pack is removed from the drill before changing any bits. Loosen the keyless chuck by holding the ring and turning the sleeve counter clockwise. Select the drill bit or screwdriver you want to use and place it in the keyless chuck.Twist the sleeve of the keyless chuck clockwise to tighten it, making sure the drill bit remains in the center of the keyless chuck’s teeth.
Owner’s Manual
Twist the 24 setting torque control ring to the desired setting. Lower settings are better for light work such as driving screws into soft materials. Higher settings are recommended for drilling into harder surfaces.
When properly adjusted, the clutch will slip at its present torque setting to prevent driving the screw too deep or to prevent damage to the tool.
To operate the drill in forward setting, sim- ply keep the Forward/Lock/Reverse switch flat against the side of the drill as shown.To change to reverse setting, move the Forward/ Lock/Reverse switch until it is flat against the
opposite side of the drill. Keeping the Forward/Lock/Reverse switch in the center position locks the drill and prevents unintentional use. It is recommended that the Drill is in the locked position when it is not in use or is being stored.
CAUTION: Always check the direction of the rotation before using the drill.
The speed of the drill is increased by the amount of pressure you place on the ON/OFF trigger switch.The less pressure you put on the trigger switch, the slower the drill will go.
Your drill comes with an automatic braking function that quickly stops the chuck from turning when the trigger switch is released.
Your drill has two speed ranges; low speed (position 1)
Screwdriver Operation
Place the point of the screwdriver bit into the head of the screw and apply slight pressure to the tool. Press the trigger switch slightly and then gradually increase the drill speed. Release the trigger switch as soon as the clutch engages. Note: Starting the drill at too high of a speed can damage the drill bit or reduce the life of the bit.
Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight in the screw head or the screw may become damaged or will not be inserted properly. When driving wood
screws,
Note: When drilling, the drill bit can become stuck. When this happens a very high torque will be produced. Always take care to hold the drill firmly to prevent possible damage or injury.
