When the trigger switch is depressed, the tool
rotates. When the trigger is released, the tool stops.
The rotational speed of the drill can be controlled
by varying the amount that the trigger switch is
pulled. Speed is low when the trigger switch is
pulled slightly and increases as the trigger switch
is pulled more.
When releasing the trigger of the switch, the brake
will be applied for immediate stopping.

5.
Change rotation speed.
Low speed
Operate the shift knob to change the rotational
speed. Move the shift knob in the direction of the
arrow (See Figs. 9 and 10).
When the shift knob is set to "LOW", the drill
rotates at a low speed. When set to "HIGH", the
drill rotates at a high speed.
CAUTION:
●
When changing the rotational speed with the shift
knob, confirm that the switch is off.
Changing the speed while the motor is rotating
will damage the gears.
●
When a large force is required for operation
(operations indicated in the following chart) set
the shift knob to "LOW". If "HIGH" is set and the
unit is used, it may cause the motor to burn out
or malfunction prematurely.
