OPERATION

REVERSIBLE

See Figure 4.

Your drill has the feature of being reversible. The direction of chuck rotation is controlled by a lever located above the switch trigger. With your drill held in normal operating posi- tion, the direction of rotation lever should be positioned to the left of the switch for drilling operation. The direction of rotation is reversed when the lever is to the right of the switch.

The design of the switch will not permit changing the direction of rotation while the drill is running. Release the switch trigger and allow the drill to stop before changing its direction.

NOTE: Your drill will not run unless switch lever is pushed fully to the left or right.

VARIABLE SPEED

See Figure 5.

Your drill has a variable speed control selector designed to allow operator control and adjustment of speed and torque limits. The speed and torque of your drill can be increased or decreased by rotating the variable speed control selector in the direction of the arrows shown in figure 5.

NOTE: Hold your drill in normal operating position and turn the variable speed control selector clockwise to increase the speed and torque of your drill. Turn counterclockwise to decrease the speed and torque of your drill.

If you desire to lock the switch on at a given speed, depress the switch trigger, push in and hold the lock-on button, and release the switch trigger. Next, adjust the variable speed control selector until the desired speed is reached.

NOTE: If the variable speed control selector is fully turned in the counterclockwise direction (zero setting) your drill may not run.

If you desire not to use the variable speed control selector, turn it in the full clockwise direction. This will allow the speed of your drill to be fully controlled by the amount of switch trigger depression.

Avoid running your drill at low speeds for extended periods of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may cause your drill to become overheated. If this occurs, cool your drill by running it without a load and at full speed.

The following guidelines may be used in determining correct speed for various applications:

LOW speed is ideal when minimum speed and power is required. For example: starting holes without center punch- ing, driving screws, mixing paint, and drilling in ceramics.

MEDIUM speed is suitable for drilling hard metals, plastics, and laminates.

HIGH speed produces best results when maximum power is required. For example: drilling in wood; soft metals such as aluminum, brass, and copper; and when using driving acces- sories.
