Trigger Switch Action

Turn the drill on by depressing the trigger switch.

Depressing the switch further will produce more speed and torque.

Use the reversing switch (6-FIG 1) to change the direction of rotation of the drill.

The Reversing Switch has three positions: Forward, Reverse, and Off (middle).

Always check the rotation before beginning your work.

LED Work Light

Your tool has a built-in LED work light to illuminate the work area. When you turn on the tool, the work light will automatically turn on.

Electric Brake

This drill is equipped with an electric brake. Like the torque settings, an electric brake provides you with another element of control during various operations. If the tool consistently fails to quickly stop after trigger switch release, have a qualified serviceman examine the tool.

Level

This drill is equipped with a bubble level located on the top of motor housing. It helps you to keep the drill bit level during the use.

Chuck

Your drill is equipped with a keyless chuck, so you can quickly change bits with no extra tools required.

To insert or change bits, put the reversing switch in the off position. Hold the collar of the chuck with one hand and rotate the body of the chuck to tighten or loosen.

Always make sure that bits are seated firmly between the chuck jaws. Never attempt to operate a bit that is wobbly, unstable, or broken.

WARNING: Make sure the drill bit is inserted straight into chuck jaws. Do not insert the drill bit into the chuck jaws at an angle and tighten. This could cause the drill bit to be thrown from the drill, resulting in possible serious personal injury.

Clutch (Torque) Settings

English

During screw driving applications, you can adjust the maximum torque that the drill will produce.

This feature can be used to prevent the stripping and breaking of screws, or to set a series of screws to a depth that fits your project.

Set the clutch ring at the front of the drill to settings from 1 (lightest) to 16 (heaviest). Setting 16 is direct drive (torque is not limited) and used primarily for drilling operations.

In general, you will find the lower settings more useful with smaller screws and the higher settings more useful for larger screws.

General Screwdriving

1.Clamp your work piece.

2.Drill pilot holes for larger screws or when driving screws into hardwoods.

3.Exert enough pressure to start the screw and keep it turning. Do not force the screw. Let the tool do the work.

4.Use a speed that will not strip the screw head or break the screw. Maintain your balance.

General Drilling

1. Clamp your work piece. Use torque setting 16 then exert enough pressure to start the drill bit and keep it cutting. Do not force or stall the bit. Don’t bend or twist the bit. Let the tool and the blade do the work.

2. Maintain your balance and be prepared for binding and for when the bit breaks through the material.
