explosive fluids (benzine, alcohol, etc.).
• Do not mix or stir flammable liquids labeled accordingly.
Screwdriving
Your tool has a clutch with adjustable torque for driving
and removing a wide array of fastener shapes and sizes.
The numbers 1–11 on the torque adjustment collar
used to set a torque range for screwdriving. The higher the
number on the collar, the higher the torque and the larger
the fastener which can be driven.
1. Turn the torque adjustment collar to the desired
position. Refer to Torque Adjustment Collar.
2. Pull the trigger switch applying pressure in a straight
line with the bit until the fastener is seated at the desired
depth in the workpiece.

.
Recommendations for screwdriving
• Start with lower torque settings, then advance to
higher torque settings to avoid damage to the workpiece
or fastener.
• Make some practice runs in scrap or on unseen areas
of the workpiece to determine the proper position of the
mode selection collar.
Drilling
iMPORTAnT: For MASONRY, such as brick, cement, cinder
block, etc., use carbide-tipped masonry bits.
1. Turn the torque adjustment collar to the drill symbol.
Refer to Torque Adjustment Collar.
2. Place drill bit in contact with the workpiece.
nOTE: Use sharp drill bit only.
3. Pull the trigger switch applying pressure in a straight
line with the bit until it reaches the desired depth.
WARNING: Drill may stall if overloaded causing a
sudden twist. Always expect the stall. Grip the drill firmly to
control the twisting action and avoid injury.
4. Keep the motor running when pulling the bit back out
of a drilled hole to prevent jamming.
Recommendations for Drilling
• When drilling, always apply pressure in a straight line
with the bit, but do not push hard enough to stall the
motor or deflect the bit.
