•
For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar to the
drilling position symbol
•
For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting. If
you do not yet know the appropriatesetting, proceed as
follows:
•
Set the collar to the lowest torque setting.
•
Tighten the first screw.
•
If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is achieved,
increase the collar setting and continue tightening the
screw. Repeat until you reach the correct setting. Use this
setting for the remaining screws.
5. Dual Range Gearing - figure G
The dual range feature of your drill allows you to shift
gears for greater versatility.
•
To select low speed, high torque setting (position1), turn
tool off and permit to stop. Slide gear shifter button (4)
away from the chuck.
•
To select the high speed, low torque setting (position 2),
turn tool off and permit to stop. Slide gear shifter button
back toward the chuck.
NOTE: Do not change gears when tool is running. If you are
having trouble changing gears, make sure that the dual
range gear button is either completely pushed forward or
completely pushed back.
@ WARNING: Make certain the battery pack is removed to
6. keyless Chuck - figure H
prevent tool actuation before installing or removing
accessories.
To insert a drill bit or other accessory:
•
Grasp the chuck (5) and rotate it in the counterclockwise
direction, as viewed from the chuck end.
•
Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck, and
tighten securely by rotating the chuck in the clockwise
@ WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten or loosen drill bits (or
direction as viewed from the chuck end.
any other accessory) by gripping the front part of the chuck
and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal
injury may occur when changing accessories.
7. Screw Driving
•
For driving fasteners, the forward/reverse button should be
pushed to the left.
•
Use reverse (button pushed to the right) for removing
fasteners.
NOTE: When moving from forward to reverse, or vice versa,
always release the trigger switch first.
8. Drilling
•
Use sharp drill bits only.
•
Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the
Safety Instructions.
•
Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as
instructed in the Safety Instructions.
•
Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the Safety
Instructions.
•
Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole
is started enough to keep the drill bit from slipping out of it.

•
Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough
pressure to keep the bit biting but not so much as to stall
the motor or deflect the bit.
•
Hold the drill firmly with two hands, one hand on the
handle, and the other gripping the bottom around the
battery area or the auxillary handle if provided.
•
DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF A STALLED DRILL
OFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPT TO START IT. DAMAGE
TO THE DRILL CAN RESULT.
•
Minimize stalling on breakthrough by reducing pressure
and slowly drilling through the last part of the hole.
•
Keep the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled
hole. This will help reduce jamming.
•
Make sure switch turns drill on and off.
1) Drilling in Wood
Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drill bits
used for metal or with spade bits. These bits should be
sharp and should be pulled out frequently when drilling to
clear chips from the flutes.
2) Drilling in Metal
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The
exceptions are cast iron and brass which should be drilled
dry. The cutting lubricants that work best are sulfurized
cutting oil or lard oil.
3) Drilling in Masonry
Use carbide tipped masonry bits. Refer to Drilling section.
Keep even force on the drill but not so much that you crack
the brittle material. A smooth, even flow of dust indicates
the proper drilling rate.
9. LED Work Light
When drill is activated by pulling the trigger switch
(1), the integrated LED work light (10) will automatically
illuminate the work area.
NOTE: he work light is for lighting the immediate work surface
and is not intended to be used as a flashlight.
10. Bit Tip Storage
Two magnetic bit storage slots (6) are built into the area on
the top of the tool.
1) Battery fuel Gauge - figure I
The tool is equipped with a battery fuel gauge (9). This can
be used to display the current level of charge in the battery
during use and during charging. It does not indicate tool
functionality and is subject to variation based on product
components, temperature and end-user application.
Checking battery charge during use:
•
Press the battery fuel gauge button (I1).
•
The three LEDs (I2) will illuminate indicating the percent of
charge in the battery (figure I).
•
If LED light does not lluminate, charge battery.
NOTE: This battery is designed to not operate when a charge
below 20% of its capacity is reached. After the battery
charge is depleted, the tool will not operate until after the
battery has been recharged.
2) Belt Clip - figure J
A belt clip (11) is provided which can be switched to either side
