How to Use
OPERATING THE DRILL
1. The speed of the cordless drill depends on the amount of pressure you put on
the trigger switch. The more pressure you apply, the faster the drill will go.
Decrease the pressure and the drill will slow down.
WARNING:
Never tape the trigger switch down to provide continuous high
speed! The drill may fail under such conditions, causing fire or
injury.
2. The forward/reverse and trigger lock lever is used to change the direction the
accessory turns AND to lock the drill. ALWAYS Be sure the trigger switch is
released when changing the position of the lever. ALWAYS check the direction of
the rotation before use.
A. To select forward rotation, press the lever from right to left
B. To select reverse, press the lever from left to right.
C. To lock the drill, center the lever.
3. The torque settings control ring controls the level of torque. For light duty work,
use lower settings. For heavy duty work, use higher settings.
DRIVING SCREWS
1. Set the ring on the lowest setting to begin.
2. Hold the drill with both hands to ensure control if the bit should stick or slip. Try
tightening the first screw. If the drill drives smoothly, proceed with the next
screw.
3. If the drill's clutch slips, release the trigger and increase the torque setting and
try again until the drill drives the screw without incident.
4. Always keep the driver bit straight to prevent damage to the screw.
5. To prevent wood from splitting, drill pilot holes into the wood before driving in
the screws.
DRILLING WOOD
1. Use a twist bit to drill holes in wood. Make sure the bit is sharp.
2. Hold the drill with both hands to ensure control if the bit should stick or slip.
Start the hole slowly, allowing the bit to drill deep enough to prevent slipping at
higher speeds.
3. While drilling the hole, pull the bit out frequently to clear chips from between the
grooves of the bit (an overburdened bit may overheat).
