BATTERY CHARGE CONDITION
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Your tool is equipped with charge condition indicator lights (Fig. 4). The indicator lights shows the charge condition of the battery during operation.
The charge condition can be checked for a few seconds when the trigger is depressed fully or halfway.
When the green light illuminates, this indicates the battery is
When the yellow lights illuminates, this indicates the battery is
When the red light illuminates, this indicates the battery is 30% charged.

Operating Tips
You will extend the life of your bits and do neater work if you always put the bit in contact with the work before pulling the trigger. During the operation, hold the tool firmly and exert light, steady pressure. Too much pressure at low speed will stall the tool. Too little pressure will keep the bit from cutting and cause excess friction by sliding over the surface. This can be damaging to both tool and bit.
DRILLING WITH VARIABLE SPEED
The trigger controlled variable speed feature will eliminate the need for center punches in hard materials. The variable speed trigger
allows you to slowly increase RPM. By using a slow starting speed, you are able to keep the bit from “wandering”. You can increase the speed as the bit “bites” into the work by squeezing the trigger.
DRIVING WITH VARIABLE SPEED
Variable speed drills will double as a power screwdriver by using a screwdriver bit in the drill mode. The technique is to start slowly, increasing the speed as the screw runs down. Set the screw snugly by slowing to a stop. Prior to driving screws, pilot and clearance holes should be drilled.
FASTENING WITH SCREWS
FIG. 5
The procedure shown in figure. 5 will enable you to fasten materials together with your Cordless Screwdriver without stripping, splitting, or separating the material.
First, clamp the pieces together and drill the first hole 2/3 the diameter of the screw. If the material is soft, drill only 2/3 the proper length. If it is hard, drill the entire length.
Second, unclamp the pieces and drill the second hole the same diameter as the screw shank in the first or top piece of wood.
Third, if a flat head screw is used, countersink the hole to make the screw flush with the surface. Then, simply apply even pressure when driving the screw. The screw shank clearance hole in the first piece allows the screw head to pull the pieces tightly together.
FASTENING WITH SCREWS
1.Drill 2/3 diameter and 2/3 of screw length for soft materials, full length for hard materials.
Apply a slight even pressure when driving screws.
2. Drill same diameter as screw shank.
3. Countersink same diameter as screw head.
