UNPACKING
Due to modern mass production
techniques, it is unlikely that your Triton
Power Tool is faulty or that a part is
missing. If you find anything wrong, do not
operate the tool until the parts have been
replaced or the fault has been rectified.
Failure to do so could result in serious
personal injury.

the latching ramp to
lock the switch on.
To turn the tool off,
press the rear of the
switch and lift it over
the latching ramp.

when holding the tool whilst drilling.
CARBON BRUSH CAPS

covers (3).
BIT HOLDER
To replace or change
drill bits, rotate the bit
holders (4) until the bit

the clamping screws (5)
with the hex key (20) provided.
8 Functions
Remove the unwanted drill bits and insert
the replacement bits (6) with the flat of the
shank under the clamping screw.
Tighten the clamping screws and check that
the bits are firmly secured.
After replacing drill bits it is necessary
to reset the zero position as detailed in

workshop vacuum or
dust collector to the
dust extraction port (7).
HANDLE
Hold the tool with two
hands during operation.
One hand on the
housing (2) and the
other on the handle (8).
BEVEL GUIDE
The bevel guide (9)
can be swiveled
through 90° to suit
the angle at which the
dowel holes are to
be drilled in the work
piece. It is commonly
used when working on
a mitred edge.
OPERATION
The angle of bevel can be read on the scale.
There are "click" stops at 22.5°, 45°
and 67.5° to allow quick setting to these
common angles.
BEVEL GUIDE LOCKING KNOB
Loosen the bevel guide locking knob (10)
before adjusting the bevel angle and retighten
it when you have made the adjustment.
PERSPEX WINDOW
The three lines on the
window (11) in the bevel
guide (9) show the
position of the centre
of each drill bit and
the mid-point between
them. They are used
as a guide when drilling to marks made on
the work piece to designate the desired
position of the holes.
FACE PLATE
Hold the face plate (12) firmly and flush
against the work piece when drilling.
DEPTH GUIDE
The drilling depth can
be adjusted between
0 and 1.56" by setting
the position of the
depth guide (14) to
the desired value.
DEPTH GUIDE LOCKING KNOB
Loosen the locking knob (14), move the
depth guide (13) and retighten the locking
knob (14).
ZERO MARKER
The position of the
zero marker (15) can be
adjusted using a small flat
screwdriver to prise it to
the left or right.
EDGE GUIDE
The edge guide (16)
can be used to adjust
the distance of the
holes from the edge
of the work piece.
Continuous adjustment is possible between
approximately 0.28" (7mm) – 1.65" (42mm).
EDGE GUIDE RATCHET KNOB
The ratchet knob (17) allows fine
adjustment of the movement of the
edge guide.

each of 0.24", 0.31" and 0.39" ( 6mm, 8mm
and 10mm).
HEX KEY
This key is used to loosen and tighten the
clamping screws (5).
ADJUSTING THE ZERO POSITION
After replacing the drill bits, it is necessary
to reset the tool so that the depth guide
(13) reads correctly.

in the direction away from the face plate
and tighten the locking knob (14).

(15) so that it aligns with the zero
position on the depth guide.
