Switch action

Tool speed is increased by increasing pres- sure on the trigger. To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Release the trigger to stop. For continuous operation, pull the trigger and then push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the trigger fully, then release it. A speed con- trol screw is provided so that maximum tool speed can be limited (variable). Turn the speed control screw clockwise for higher speed, and counterclockwise for lower speed.

CAUTION:

Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the trigger switch actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released.

Reversing switch action

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of rotation. Move the revers- ing switch lever to the &>position for clockwise rotation or the 4%)position for counterclockwise.

CAUTION:

*Always check the direction of rotation before drilIing.

*Use the reversing switch only when the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before the tool stops may ruin the tool.

Torque limiter

The torque limiter will actuate when a certain torque level is reached. The motor will disengage from the output shaft. When this happens, the bit will stop turning.

CAUTION :

*As soon as the torque limiter actuates, switch off the tool immediately. This will help prevent premature wear of the tool.

0 Hole saws, core bits, diamond core bits, etc. cannot be used with this tool. They tend to pinch or catch easily in the hole. This will cause the torque limiter to actuate too frequently .
