LED WORK LIGHT
the drill has a built-in leD work light (7-fig 1) to illuminate
the work area. when you turn on the tool, the work light will
automatically turn on.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
this drill is equipped with an electric brake. like the torque
settings, an electric brake provides you with another
element of control during various operations. if the tool
consistently fails to quickly stop after the trigger switch
is released, have a qualified serviceman examine the tool.
CHUCK (FIG 5)
• your drill is equipped with a keyless single-sleeve metal
ratcheting chuck (1), so you can quickly change bits
with no extra tools required.
• to insert or change bits, put the forward/reverse switch
in the off (middle) position. rotate the chuck sleeve
counter-clockwise to open the chuck jaws (1a) to a point
where the opening is slightly larger than the bit size you
intend to use. insert the bit. tighten the chuck jaws by
rotating the chuck body clockwise to secure the bit in
place. Continue tightening until the chuck stops making
a clicking sound.
NOTE:
always make sure that bits are seated firmly
between the chuck jaws. never attempt to operate a bit
that is wobbly, unstable, or broken.
• to remove bits, place the forward/reverse switch in the
off (middle) position. loosen the chuck jaws by rotating
the chuck sleeve counter-clockwise. remove the bit.

GENERAL SCREWDRIVING
1.
secure the workpiece in place with clamps or other
means.
2.
Drill pilot holes for larger screws or when driving screws
into hardwoods.
3.
exert enough pressure to start the screw and keep it
turning. Do not force the screw. let the tool do the work.
4.
use a speed that will not strip the screw head or break
the screw. Maintain your balance.
OPERATION
WARNING:
inserted straight into the chuck jaws. Do not insert the
drill bit into the chuck jaws at an angle and tighten.
this could cause the drill bit to be thrown from the drill,
resulting in possible serious personal injury.
MODE AND CLUTCH SETTINGS
(FIG 6)
Screwdriving Mode
this feature can be used to adjust the amount of torque
(force) to prevent stripping and breaking of screws, or to
set a series of screws to a depth that fits your project.
• first set the mode ring (3) to the drive mode ( ).
• next adjust the torque by turning the clutch ring (4)
starting with a low setting (1-9) and slowly increasing
torque until the desired depth is reached.
• in general, you will find the lower settings more useful
with smaller screws and the higher settings more useful
for larger screws.
Drill Mode
Drill mode is direct drive (torque is not limited) and used
primarily for drilling operations.
• set the mode ring (3) to the drill mode ( ).
• Depending on the material being drilled, select high or
low speed range on the gear switch (2-fig-1).
Hammer Mode
hammer mode is used specifically for drilling and driving
into concrete and masonry using specialty drill bits and
fasteners.
• set the mode ring (3) to the hammer drill mode ( ).
• Make sure the gear switch (2-fig-1) is set to the best
FIG 5
speed range for the material being drilled.
APPLICATIONS
GENERAL DRILLING
1.
secure your workpiece. use the drill mode, then exert
enough pressure to start the drill bit and keep drilling.
Do not force or stall the bit. Don't bend or twist the bit.
let the tool and the drill bit do the work.
2.
Maintain your balance and be prepared for binding and
for bit breakthrough.
3.
Chattering or vibration may indicate you need a finer
bit or higher speed. if the bit overheats or clogs, it may
indicate you need a coarser bit or slower speed setting.
