AUTOLOCK™

Your tool is equipped with an automatic locking system. This feature will lock the chuck in one position when the trigger switch is released.

This will allow you to tighten or loosen a nut or screw by rotating the tool by hand with the switch off. This is convenient when higher turning torque is needed.

INSERTING BIT

Move reverse switch lever to the center “OFF” position. Remove battery pack and rotate the

clutch ring to the drill bit symbol “ ”.

Rotate the chuck sleeve counter-clockwise viewing from chuck end, and open chuck to approximate bit diameter.

For small bits, open jaws enough to insert the bit up to the flutes. For large bits, insert the bit as far as it will go. Center the bit as you close the jaws by hand. This positions the bit properly, giving maximum contact between the chuck jaws and the bit shank.
