8.High-speed/Low-speed changeover

Prior to changing speed, ensure that the switch is in the OFF position, and the drill has come to a complete stop.

To change speed, rotate the gear shift dial as indicated by the arrow in Fig. 7. The numeral “1” engraved on the drill body denotes low speed, the numeral “2” denotes high speed.

If it is hard to turn the gear shift dial, turn the chuck slightly in either direction and then turn the gear shift dial again.

HOW TO USE

1. Switch operation

￿When the trigger is depressed, the tool rotates. When the trigger is released, the tool stops.

￿The rotational speed of the drill can be controlled by varying the amount that the trigger switch is pulled. Speed is low when the trigger switch is pulled slightly and increases as the trigger switch is pulled more.

￿The desired rotation speed can be pre-selected with the speed control dial.

Turn the speed control dial clockwise for higher speed and counterclockwise for lower speed (Fig. 8).

￿Pulling the trigger and pushing the stopper, it keeps the switched-on condition which is convenient for continuous running. When switching off, the stopper

can be disconnected by pulling the trigger again.

CAUTION

If the L-side of push button is pressed for reverse bit rotation, the stopper cannot be used.
