PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specified on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If
the plug is connected to a receptacle while the power
switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start
operating immediately, inviting serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power
source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as practicable.
4. Selecting the appropriate drill bit
When boring metal or plastic
Use an ordinary metalworking drill bit.
When boring wood
Use an ordinary woodworking drill bit.
However, when drilling 6.5 mm or smaller holes, use
a metalworking drill bit.
5. Mounting and dismounting of the bit
For keyed chuck (Fig. 1)
(1) Open the chuck jaws, and insert the bit into the
chuck.
(2) Place the chuck wrench in each of the three holes
in the chuck, and turn it in the clockwise direction
(viewed from the front side). Tighten securely.

then turn the sleeve to loosen by hand (Fig. 3).
6. Check the rotational direction (Fig. 4)
The bit rotates clockwise (viewed from the rear side)
by pushing the R-side of the push button.
The L-side of the push button is pushed to turn the bit
counterclockwise.
(The L and marks are provided on the body.)

7. Fixing the side handle (Fig. 5)
Attach the side handle to the mounting part.
Rotate the side handle grip in a clockwise direction
to secure it.
Set the side handle to a position that is suited to the
operation and then securely tighten the side handle
grip.
To attach a depth gauge on the side handle, insert
the gauge into the U-shaped groove on the side
handle, adjust the position of the depth gauge in
accordance with the desired depth of the hole, and
firmly tighten the side handle grip (Fig. 6)
8. High-speed/Low-speed changeover
Prior to changing speed, ensure that the switch is in
the OFF position, and the drill has come to a complete
