OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

VARIABLE SPEED TRIGGER SWITCH (FIG. E)

To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch (1). E To turn the tool off, release the trigger switch. Your tool is equipped with a brake. The chuck will stop

as soon as the trigger switch is fully released. The variable speed switch enables you to select the best speed for a particular application. The more you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool will operate. Use lower speeds for starting holes without a center punch, drilling in metals or plastics, or driving screws. For maximum tool life, use variable speed only for starting holes or fasteners.

NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not recommended. It may damage the switch and should be avoided.

FORWARD/REVERSE CONTROL BUTTON

F

(FIG. F)

A forward/reverse control button (2) determines the direction of the tool and also serves as a lock off button. To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and depress the forward/reverse control button on the right side of the tool. To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control button on the left side of the tool. The center position of the control button locks the tool in the OFF position. When changing the position of the control button, be sure the trigger is released.

NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing

the direction of rotation, you may hear a click on start up. This and the impacting noise that the tool makes is normal and does not indicate a problem.

LED WORKLIGHT (FIG. G)
