The LED light on the foot of the drill will come on when the switch trigger is depressed. This provides additional lighting on the surface of the workpiece for operation in lower-light areas.

INSTALLING BITS

See Figure 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.

Tighten the chuck jaws securely on the bit.

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