OPERATION cont.
BUBBLE LEVEL (Fig. 11)
In order to insure a perfect right angle when
drilling / driving into a workpiece, you can use
the built-in bubble level on the top of the
drill / driver (see Fig. 11). The bubble level
is designed to work when drilling / driving
in horizontal position. Center the air bubble
between the two lines on the Level viewer
as shown, and the drill / driver is in a
perpendicular angle to the workpiece.
This will insure that you drill/drive straight
into the workpiece.
