WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles or glasses with side shields.

Using Keyless Chucks

This tool is equipped with a spindle lock. The chuck can be tightened with one hand, creat- ing higher grip strengths on the bit.

Always remove the battery pack or lock the trigger before inserting or removing bits.

1.To open the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the counterclockwise direction.

When using drill bits, allow the bit to strike the bottom of the chuck. Center the bit in the chuck jaws and lift it about 1/16" off of the bottom.

When using screwdriver bits, insert the bit far enough for the chuck jaws to grip the hex of the bit.

2.To close the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the clockwise direction. The bit is se- cure when the chuck makes a ratcheting sound and the sleeve can not be rotated any further.

3.To remove the bit, turn the sleeve in the counterclockwise direction.

NOTE: A ratcheting sound may be heard when the chuck is opened or closed. This noise is part of the locking feature, and does not indicate a problem with the chuck's operation.
