Two-Speed Gearbox Switch
(Fig. 5)
Your tool is equipped with a two-speed gearbox
designed for drilling or driving at low or high
speeds. The slide switch is located at the back
of the motor housing to select either low
(marked "1") or high (marked "2") speed.
The low speed (1) provides higher torque and
slower drilling speeds for heavy-duty work or
for driving screws, and drilling large diameters.
Use the low speed for starting holes without a
center punch, drilling metals or plastic, drilling
ceramics, or in applications requiring a higher
torque.
The high speed (2) provides lower torque and
faster speeds for lighter drilling work. The high
speed is better for drilling wood and wood composites.
To prevent gear damage, always allow the drill to come to a complete stop before

changing between low speed (1) and high speed (2).
Drilling/Driving Mode and Torque Setting
Your tool features 9 screw driving settings and 1 drilling setting.
Do not adjust the torque while the tool is running.
NOTICE
To use the tool for drilling, press the drilling mode button. The display will show 'd' (Fig. 6a).
To drive fasteners, press the screw-driving mode button. The display will show the current
torque level from 1 to 9 (Fig. 6b). Press the screw-driving mode button again to change the
torque level. The torque level will increase with each press of the button until it reaches 9, at
which point the level will drop back to 1.
The higher the torque setting, the more force the drill produces to turn an object. The proper
setting depends on the job and the type of bit, fastener, and material you will be using. In
general, use greater torque for larger screws. If the torque is too high, the screws may be
damaged or broken.
Select the drilling mode for drilling and other heavy-duty applications.
NOTE: When the tool is turned on after a break, the working mode will revert to the last used
setting.
