Always use the side grip to ensure operating safety.
Install the side grip so that the teeth on the grip fit in
between the protrusions on the tool barrel.
Then tighten the grip by turning clockwise at the desired
position. It may be swung 360° so as to be secured at
any position.

The depth gauge is convenient for drilling holes of
uniform depth. Loosen the side grip and insert the depth
gauge into the hole in the side grip. Adjust the depth
gauge to the desired depth and tighten the side grip.
NOTE:
The depth gauge cannot be used at the position
where the depth gauge strikes against the tool
body.

OPERATION

Holding tool

When drilling a large hole with a hole saw, etc., the side
grip (auxiliary handle) should be used as a brace to
maintain safe control of the tool.
Grasp the rear handle and the front grip firmly when
starting or stopping the tool, since there is an initial and
final reaction.
When drilling action is forward (clockwise), the tool
should be braced to prevent a counterclockwise reaction
if the bit should bind. When reversing, brace the tool to
prevent a clockwise reaction. If the bit must be removed
from a partially drilled hole, be sure the tool is properly
braced before reversing.
