as a lock off button. To select forward rotation, release the
trigger switch and depress the forward/reverse control
button.To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse
control button in the opposite direction.
The center position of the control button locks the tool in the

Adjusting Torque Control - Figure G
This tool is fitted with a torque adjustment collar (3)to select
the operating mode and to set the torque for tightening
screws. Large screws and hard workpiece materials require
a higher torque setting than small screws and soft
workpiece materials.
For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar to
the drilling position symbol .
For screw driving, set the collar to the desired setting. If
you do not yet know the appropriate setting, 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.
Keyless Chuck
To insert a drill bit or other accessory:
1. Grasp the chuck (5) and rotate it in the counterclock-
wise direction, as viewed from the chuck end.
2. Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck,
and tighten securely by rotating the chuck in the
clockwise direction as viewed from the chuck end.
WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or any
other accessory) by gripping the front part of the chuck and
turning the toolon. Damage to the chuck and personal
injury may occur when changing accessories.
QUICK CONNECT
BIT CHANGE SYSTEM-

FIGURE H
Another unique feature of your drill is the ability to remove
the chuck quickly and easily. This allows for a drill bit to be
in the keyless chuck, while another accessory such as a
screwdriver bit, can be inserted into the Quick Connect
shaft at the same time.
To remove the chuck:
1. Grasp the drill and depress the two orange buttons on
the chuck collar as shown inFigure H.
2. With the buttons depressed, pull straight out.
To replace the chuck:
1. Push the quick connect chuck straight on with a slight
twisting motion until you hear it click into place.To
insert a screwdriver bit into the Quick Connect
shaft, push the bit in until you hear it click into place.
2. To remove the bit, hold the drill as shown in figure I.
Push in evenly on the spring loaded disc with two
fingers and pull the bit straight out. Do not use the 1
inch bits without the magnetic bit holder.
Screw Driving
(Button pushed to the right) for removing fasteners. When
moving from forward to reverse, or vice versa, always
release the trigger switch first.
On Board Bit Storage
A bit storage slot is built-in to the area just above the
battery.
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 one hand on the grip and the
other hand on the bottom of the battery pack to control
its twisting action.
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 break through 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.
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.
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.
