This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of
rotation. Depress the reversing switch lever from the "A"
side for clockwise rotation or from the "B" side for
counterclockwise rotation.
When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral position,
the switch trigger cannot be pulled.
CAUTION:
Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
•
Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes
•
to a complete stop. Changing the direction of
rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool.

This tool has a three-gear speed change lever. To change
the speed, first switch off the tool and then slide the speed
change lever to the "1" position for low speed, "2" position
for medium speed or "3" position for high speed. Be sure
that the speed change lever is set to the correct position
before operation. Use the right speed for your job.
NOTE:
When changing the position from "1" to "3" or from
•
"3" to "1", it may be a little difficult to slide the speed
change lever. At this time, switch on and run the
tool for a second at the "2" position, then stop the
tool and slide to your desired position.
CAUTION:
Always set the speed change lever fully to the correct
•
position. If you operate the tool with the speed change
lever positioned halfway between the "1" position, "2"
position and "3" position, the tool may be damaged.
