either adjust the nose piece to expose the bit
tip or remove the nose piece to expose the bit
tip , reverse the direction of rotation (when the

screw. When finished, press the nose piece
back into place or re-adjust the depth. Set
lever back to forward while the trigger switch is
in the "OFF" position.
