OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Installing side grip (auxiliary handle) (Fig. 1)
For DP4700 only
Screw the side grip on the tool securely.
Installing or removing drill bit
Important:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the bit.
For tools with standard keyed chuck (Fig. 2)
To install the bit, place it in the chuck as far as it will
go. Tighten the chuck by hand. Place the chuck key
in each of the three holes and tighten clockwise. Be
sure to tighten all three chuck holes evenly. To
remove the bit, turn the chuck key counterclockwise
in just one hole, then loosen the chuck by hand.
After using the chuck key, be sure to return it to the
original position.
For tools with keyless chuck (Fig. 3)
Hold the ring and turn the sleeve counterciockwise to
open the chuck jaws. Place the bit in the chuck as far
as it will go. Hold the ring firmly and turn the sleeve
clockwise to tighten the chuck. To remove the bit,
hold the ring and turn the sleeve counterclockwise.
Switch action (Fig. 4)
CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that
the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the
"OFF" position when released.
To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Tool speed is
increased by increasing pressure on the trigger.
Release the trigger to stop. For continuous operation,
pull the trigger and then push in the lock button. To
stop the tool from the locked position, pull the trigger
fully, then release it. A speed control screw is pro-
vided so that maximum tool speed can be limited
(variable). Turn the speed control screw clockwise for
higher speed, and counterclockwise for lower speed.
Reversing switch action
(Fig. 5 for DP4700 & Fig. 6 for 6402)
CAUTION:
• Always check the direction of rotation before drill-
ing.
• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes
to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rota-
tion before the tool stops may damage the tool.
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direc-
tion of rotation. Move the reversing switch lever to the
i position (DP4700)/the "FWD" position (6402) for
clockwise rotation or the j position (DP4700) /the
"REV" position (6402) for counterclockwise rotation.
