The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled
by a selector located on the rear of the handle. With the
screwdriver held in the in-line position, the direction of rota-
tion selector should be positioned fully forward for forward

Setting the direction of rotation selector in the center (locked)
position helps reduce the possibility of accidental starting
when not in use.
NOTE: The screwdriver will not run unless the direction of
rotation selector is pushed fully up/forward or down/back.
NOTICE:
To prevent gear damage, always allow the collet to
come to a complete stop before changing the direction
of rotation.
TO LOAD/RELEASE BITS
See Figure 5, page 10.
Insert the bit into the collet and push the bit in as far as pos-
sible. To remove a bit, pull the bit straight out of the collet.
LED LIGHTS
See Figure 6, page 10.
The LED lights, located on the front of the tool, illuminate
during operation.
DRIVING SCREWS
See Figure 7 - 8, page 10.
 Place the screwdriver in the in-line or pivot position.
 Hold the tool firmly and place the bit at the point where
the screw is to be driven.
WARNING:
Do not drive a screw where there is likely to be hidden
wiring behind the surface. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and possibly
shock the operator. If you must drive a screw where hid-
den wire may be present, always hold tool by insulated
gripping surfaces (handle) when performing the operation
to prevent a shock to the operator.
 Press the forward or reverse button to start the tool.
 Apply only enough pressure to keep driving the screw.
Do not force the tool. Let the tool do the work.
