ELECTRIC BRAKE
This drill has an electric brake. When the trigger switch
is released, the chuck stops turning. When the brake is
functioning properly, sparks will be visible through the
vent slots on the housing. This is normal and is the action
of the brake.
KEYLESS CHUCK
See Figure 5.
Your drill has a keyless chuck. As the name implies,
you can hand tighten or release drill bits in the
chuck jaws. Rotate the chuck with your hand. Rotate
the chuck body with your other hand. The arrows on the
chuck indicate which direction to rotate the chuck body in
order to LOCK (tighten) or UNLOCK (release) the drill bit.
WARNING
Do not hold chuck body with one hand and use
power of the drill to tighten chuck jaws on drill bit.
Chuck body could slip in your hand or your hand
could slip and come in contact with rotating drill bit.
This could cause an accident resulting in serious
personal injury.
