To remove the battery pack from the tool, press the release buttons (G) and firmly pull the battery pack out of the tool handle. Insert it into the charger as described in the charger section of this manual.

Variable Speed Switch (Fig. 1)

To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch (A). To turn the tool off, release the trigger switch. Your tool is equipped with a brake. The chuck will stop as soon as the trigger switch is fully released.

NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not recommended. It may damage the switch and should be avoided.

Forward/Reverse Control Button (Fig. 1)

A forward/reverse control button (B) determines the direction of the tool and also serves as a lock off button. To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and depress the forward/reverse control button on the right side of the tool. To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control button on the left side of the tool. The center position of the control button locks the tool in the off position. When changing the position of the control button, be sure the trigger is released.

NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing the direction of rotation, you may hear a click on start up. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.

Torque Adjustment Collar (Fig. 1)

Your tool has an adjustable torque screwdriver mechanism for driving and removing a wide array of fastener shapes and sizes and in some models, a hammer mechanism for drilling into masonry. Circling the collar (C) are numbers, a drill bit symbol, and in some models, a hammer symbol. These numbers are used to set the clutch to deliver a torque range. The higher the number on the collar, the higher the torque and the larger the fastener which can be driven. To select any of the numbers, rotate until the desired number aligns with the arrow.

Dual Range Gearing (Fig. 1)

The dual range feature of your driver/drill allows you to shift gears for greater versatility.

To select the low speed, high torque setting, turn the tool off and permit to stop. Slide the gear selector (D) forward (towards the chuck) as shown in Figure 1.

To select the high speed, low torque setting, turn the tool off and permit to stop. Slide the gear selector back (away from chuck).

NOTE Do not change gears when the tool is running. If you are having trouble changing gears, make sure that the dual range gear selector is either completely pushed forward or completely pushed back.

Worklight (Fig. 1)

There is a worklight (E) located just above the trigger switch (A). The worklight will be activated when the trigger switch is squeezed.

NOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface and is not intended to be used as a flashlight.

Keyless Single Sleeve Chuck (Fig. 1)

Your tool features a keyless chuck (F) with one rotating sleeve for one-handed operation of the chuck. To insert a drill bit or other accessory, follow these steps.

1.Lock the trigger in the OFF position as previously described.

2.Grasp the black sleeve of the chuck with one hand and use the other hand to secure the tool. Rotate the sleeve counterclockwise far enough to accept the desired accessory.

3.Insert the accessory about 19 mm (3/4") into the chuck and tighten securely by rotating the chuck sleeve clockwise with one hand while holding the tool with the other. Your tool is equipped with an automatic spindle lock mechanism. This allows you to open and close the chuck with one hand.

To release the accessory, repeat step 2 above.

WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the front part of the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury may result. Always lock off trigger switch when changing accessories.

Be sure to tighten chuck with one hand on the chuck sleeve and one hand holding the tool for maximum tightness.

Drill Operation (Fig. 4)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/ installing attachments or accessories.
