OPERATION

REVERSIBLE

See Figure 3.

This tool is reversible. The direction of rotation is controlled by a selector located above the switch trigger. With the drill held in normal operating position, the direction of rotation selector should be positioned to the left of the switch for drilling. The drilling direction is reversed when the selector is to the right of the switch. When the selector is in center position, the switch trigger is locked.

CAUTION:

To prevent gear damage, always allow chuck to come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation.

To stop, release switch trigger and allow the chuck to come to a complete stop.

WARNING:

Battery tools are always in operating condition. Therefore, switch should always be locked when not in use or when carrying at your side.

KEYLESS CHUCK

See Figure 5.

A keyless chuck has been provided with your drill to allow for easy installation and removal of bits. As the name implies, you can hand tighten or release drill bits in the chuck jaws. Grasp and hold the collar of the chuck with one hand. Rotate the chuck body with your other hand. The arrows on the chuck indicate which direction to rotate the chuck body in order to GRIP (tighten) or RELEASE (unlock) the drill bit.

WARNING:

Do not hold the chuck body with one hand and use the power of the drill to tighten chuck jaws on drill bits. Chuck body could slip in your hand or your hand could slip and come in contact with rotating drill bit. This could cause an accident resulting in serious personal injury.

INSTALLING BITS

See Figure 5.

Place the direction of rotation selector in center position. This will turn off the power to your drill.

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 your drill slightly to keep the bit from falling out of the chuck jaws.

Insert your drill bit into the chuck the full length of the jaws. See Figure 6.

Tighten the chuck jaws on the drill bit. To tighten, grasp and hold the collar of the chuck with one hand, while rotating the chuck body with your other hand.

WRONG

Fig. 7

Note: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the arrow marked GRIP to tighten the chuck jaws. DO NOT use a wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.

WARNING:

Do not insert drill bit into chuck jaws and tighten as shown in figure 7. This could cause drill bit to be thrown from drill resulting in possible serious personal injury or damage to the chuck.
