Operating Instructions
VARIABLE SPEED CONTROLLED
TRIGGER SWITCH
Your tool is equipped with a variable speed trigger switch. The tool speed can be controlled from the minimum to the maximum nameplate RPM by the pressure you apply to the trigger. Apply more pressure to increase the speed and release pressure to decrease speed. This accurate speed control enables you to drill without center punching. It also permits you to use as a power screwdriver. Bits are available for driving screws as well as running bolts and nuts.
FORWARD/REVERSING LEVER &
TRIGGER LOCK
Your tool is equipped with a forward/ reversing lever and trigger lock located above the trigger (Fig. 1). This lever was designed for changing rotation of the chuck, and for locking the trigger in an “OFF” position to help prevent accidental starts and accidental battery discharge. For forward rotation, (with chuck pointed away from you) move the lever to the far left. For reverse rotation move the lever to the far right. To activate trigger lock move lever to the center off position.
Do not change direction of ! CAUTION rotation until the tool
comes to a complete stop. Shifting during rotation of the chuck can cause damage to the tool.
ADJUSTABLE CLUTCH
Your tool features 6 clutch settings. Output torque will increase as the clutch ring, is
rotated from 1 to 5. The drill “ 
” position will lock up the clutch to permit drilling and driving heavyduty work, and also enables bits to be changed quickly and easily in the keyless chuck.
BRAKE
When the trigger switch is released it activates the brake to stop the chuck quickly. This is especially useful in the repetitive driving and removal of screws.
INSERTING BIT
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.
To tighten, hold the chuck collar firmly with one hand and securely tighten the chuck sleeve with the other hand (Fig. 2).
!WARNING Do not use the power of the drill while grasping
chuck to loosen or tighten bit. Friction burn or hand injury is possible if attempting to grasp the spinning chuck.
REMOVING CHUCK
