OPERATION

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
place the forward/reverse button in the lock-off position or
turn tool off and disconnect battery pack before making any
adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories.
Installing and Removing the Battery Pack
(Fig. 3)
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack is fully charged.
To install the battery pack (F) into the tool handle, align the battery with
the rails inside the tool's handle and slide it firmly into the handle until
you hear the lock snap into place.
FIG. 3
To remove the battery pack from the tool, press the release button (G)
and firmly pull the battery pack out of the tool handle. Insert it into the
charger as described in the charger section of this manual.
Variable Speed Trigger Switch (Fig. 2)
To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch (A). To turn the tool off,
release the trigger switch. Your tool is equipped with a brake. The
chuck will stop when the trigger switch is fully released.
The variable speed switch enables you to start the application at a
slow speed. The further you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool
will operate. For maximum tool life, use variable speed only for starting
holes or fasteners.
NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not recommended.
It may damage the switch and should be avoided.
Forward/Reverse Control Button (Fig. 2)
A forward/reverse control button (B) determines the direction of the tool
and also serves as a lock-off button.
To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and depress the
forward/reverse control button on the right side of the tool.
To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control button on the left
side of the tool. The center position of the control button locks the tool
in the off position. When changing the position of the control button, be
sure the trigger is released.
NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing the direction of rotation,
you may hear a click on start up. This is normal and does not indicate a
problem.

Worklights (Fig. 2)
F
There are three worklights (H) located around the chuck collar (D). The
worklight will be activated when the trigger switch is squeezed.
NOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface and is
not intended to be used as a flashlight.
Torque Adjustment Collar (Fig. 2)
The torque adjustment collar (C) is clearly marked with numbers and
the max position.The collar should be rotated until the desired setting
is located at the top of the tool. Locators are provided in the collar to
eliminate the guess work when selecting fastening torque. The higher the
number on the collar, the higher the torque and the larger the fastener
which can be driven. To lock the clutch for drilling operations, move to
the max position.
