OPERATING THE ON/OFF SWITCH

Squeeze the trigger switch to turn the tool “ON”. Release the trigger switch to turn the tool “OFF”.

When drilling for extended periods, the “Lock-On” switch may be used, but do not use this switch in situations where the drill is likely to bind or kickback. If kickback does occur, the sudden motion of the tool may make it difficult to release the “Lock- On” switch and turn the drill off.

SPEED CONTROL ADJUSTING SWITCH

To increase the operating speed of the drill, squeeze the trigger switch. To decrease the speed, release the trigger switch.

LOCK-ON SWITCH

DIRECTION CONTROL LEVER

The direction control lever changes the rotation of the drill chuck. It is located just above the trigger switch. ALWAYS turn the motor off and let the bit come to a complete stop before moving the switch.

Depress the “R” arrow switch on the left side of the drill for a forward rotation of the bit. Depress the direction switch lever on the right of the drill for the bit to rotate in reverse.

Do not change the direction of a moving bit. Make sure the bit comes to a complete standstill before moving switch. Changing direction while the bit is moving can cause damage to the drill.

BIT INSERTION

Unplug the drill. Never change bits on a live drill.

• Make sure the bit is undamaged, sharp and free from wood or metal

shavings. Foreign material on the bit may keep the chuck from tight-

ening fully. A loose bit may cause injury.

• Push the bit into the chuck as far as it will go.

• Make sure the bit is in the center of the chuck. If the bit is off-cen- ter, it will not be held securely and may fly loose during use causing serious injury.

Insert the chuck key into one of the three chuck holes. Rotate the chuck key clockwise to lock the bit in place.

Remove the chuck key.

Always run the drill for one minute before drilling to make sure the bit is properly seated. If the bit needs to be adjusted, unplug the drill before touching the bit.

BIT REMOVAL

• Unplug the drill.

• Insert the chuck key into one of the three chuck holes. Rotate the chuck key counterclockwise to unlock the bit.

• Remove the bit.
