SWITCH
TRIGGER
See Figure 2.
To turn the drill ON, depress the switch trigger. To turn it
OFF, release the switch trigger.
VARIABLE SPEED
The variable speed switch delivers higher speed with in-
creased trigger pressure and lower speed with decreased
trigger pressure.
NOTE: You might hear a whistling or ringing noise from
the switch during use. Do not be concerned; this is a
normal part of the switch function.

DIRECTION OF ROTATION SELECTOR
(FORWARD/REVERSE)
See Figure 2.
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled
by a selector located above the switch trigger. With the
drill held in normal operating position, the direction of
rotation selector should be positioned to the left of the
switch trigger for forward drilling. The drilling direction is
reversed when the selector is to the right of the switch
trigger.
CAUTION; To prevent gear damage, always allow
the chuck to come to a complete stop before chang-
ing the direction of rotation.
To stop the drill, release the switch trigger and allow the
chuck to come to a complete stop.
NOTE: The drill will not run unless the direction of rotation
selector is pushed fully to the left or right.
Avoid running the drill at low speeds for extended periods
of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may
cause the drill to become overheated. If this occurs, cool
the drill by running it without a load and at full speed.
KEYLESS CHUCK
See Figure 2.
The drill has a keyless chuck that makes it simple to tight-
en or release drill bits in the chuck jaws. Grasp and hold
the collar of the chuck with one hand. Rotate the chuck
body with your other hand. The arrows on the chuck indi-
cate which direction to rotate the chuck body in order to
LOCK (tighten) or UNLOCK (release) the drill bit.
