WARNING
Always remove battery
pack before changing or removing acces-
sories. Only use accessories specifically
recommended for this tool. Others may be
hazardous.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury,
wear safety goggles or glasses with side
shields.
Fuel Gauge
To determine the amount of charge left in the bat-
tery, pull the trigger. The Fuel Gauge will light up
for 2-3 seconds.
To signal the end of charge, 1 light on the fuel gauge
will fl ash for 2-3 seconds.
Installing Bits
Always remove the battery before inserting or
removing bits. Select the proper style and size bit
for the type of screw you are using.
This tool is equipped with a spindle lock. The chuck
can be tightened with one hand, creating higher grip
strengths on the bit.
Always remove the battery pack or lock the trigger
before inserting or removing bits.
1. To open the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the
counterclockwise direction.
When using drill bits, allow the bit to strike the
bottom of the chuck. Center the bit in the chuck
jaws and lift it about 1/16" off of the bottom.
When using screwdriver bits, insert the bit far
enough for the chuck jaws to grip the hex of the
bit.
ASSEMBLY
WARNING
Recharge only with the char-
ger specifi ed for the battery. For specifi c charg-
ing instructions, read the operator's manual
supplied with your charger and battery.

Inserting/Removing the
Battery
To remove the battery, push
in the release buttons and pull
the battery pack away from
the tool.
To insert the battery, slide the
pack into the body of the tool.
Make sure it latches securely
into place.
OPERATION
2. To close the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the
clockwise direction. The bit is secure when the
chuck makes a ratcheting sound and the sleeve
can not be rotated any further.
3. To remove the bit, turn the sleeve in the counter-
clockwise direction.
NOTE: A ratcheting sound may be heard when the
chuck is opened or closed. This noise is part of the
locking feature, and does not indicate a problem
with the chuck's operation.
Using the Adjustable Clutch
This tool has an adjustable clutch for driving differ-
ent types of screws into different materials. When
properly adjusted, the clutch will slip at a preset
torque to prevent driving the screw too deep and
to prevent damage to the screw or tool.
To adjust the clutch, turn the clutch adjusting ring
so that the desired setting lines up with the arrow
on the motor housing, as shown.
The torque specifications shown here are ap-
proximate values obtained with a fully charged
battery pack.
NOTE: Because the settings shown in the table are
only a guide, use a piece of scrap material to test
the different clutch settings before driving screws
into the workpiece.

WARNING
tric shock, check work area for hidden pipes
and wires before drilling or driving screws.
This tool provides a quick, convenient means of
drilling small holes and installing and removing
screws. Because of the many screw sizes, types,
thread engagements and materials available, it is
diffi cult to limit the application of this tool by screw
size. However, for applications in wood, a #6 wood
screw with a full pilot hole is recommended as a
practical limit.

Battery Pack Protection
To protect the battery from damage and extend
its life, the tool's intelligent circuit monitors current
draw, temperature, and voltage drops.
Low = 1
High = 2
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling, and short
circuit situations that cause high current draw, the
tool will vibrate for about 5 seconds, the fuel gauge
will fl ash, and then the tool will turn OFF. To reset,
release the trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal tem-
perature of the battery could become too high.
If this happens, the fuel gauge will fl ash and the
battery pack will shut off. Let the battery pack cool
and then continue work.
APPLICATIONS
Drilling in Wood, Composition Materials and
To reduce the risk of elec-
Plastic
Always use sharp bits. When using twist drill bits,
pull the bit out of the hole frequently to clear chips
from the bit fl utes. To reduce the chance of splinter-
ing, back work with a piece of scrap wood. Select
low speeds for plastics with a low melting point.
Driving Screws
Drill a pilot hole when driving screws into thick or
hard materials. Set the clutch adjusting ring to the
proper position and set the speed to low. Use the
proper style and size screwdriver bit for the type
of screw you are using.
