2 Speed gearbox

The 2 speed gearbox allows you to select a gear with the optimum speed and torque to suit the application.

To select the first gear (low speed, high torque setting), turn the tool off and wait until it stops.

Push the gear selector (5) back, towards the chuck, so that “LOW” is displayed.

Note. Use the first gear for high torque applications such as driving screws into decking.

To select the second gear (high speed, low torque setting), turn the tool off and wait until it stops. Slide the gear selector (5) away from the chuck so that “HIGH” is displayed.

Note. Use the second gear for high speed applications such as driving screws into drywalls

CAUTION. Do not change gears when the tool is running.

Variable speed

The variable speed feature enables you to select the best speed for a particular application.

The farther you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool will operate.

Use lower speeds when starting

the driving process or when removing screws or other fasteners as it delivers higher torque and helps overcome initial resistance.

Note. Do not continuously operate the drill at different speeds. It may damage the switch.

Removing the adjustment collar and nose cone assembly

WARNING. Ensure that the tool is switched off and the battery is removed before changing accessories or carrying out other adjustment or maintenance procedures.

Turn the locking collar (4) clockwise (viewed from the front) until it reaches a stop.

Ensure that the marker opening on the locking collar (4) aligns with the marker line on the adjustment collar (3).

Pull out the adjustment collar (3) and nose cone (1).
