18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that
it will
operate properly and perform itsintended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and
any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized
service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction
manual. Havedefective switches replacedby authorizedservicecenter. Don‘t
use tool if switch does not turn
it on and off.
19. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded
surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
20. REPLACEMENTPARTS. When servicing, useonly identicalreplacementparts.
21. POLARIZEDPLUGS. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If
it stilldoes notfit, contact a qualified electriciantoinstall
the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
VOLTAGE WARNING: Beforeconnecting the tool to a power source (receptacle,
outlet, etc.) be sure the voltage supplied is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool. A power source with voltage greater than that specified
for the tool can result
in SERIOUS INJURY to the user - as well as damage to
the tool.
If in doubt, DO NOT PLUG IN THE TOOL. Using a power source with
voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.

Removing or installingbit
CAUTION
:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before removingor installing
the bit.
To remove the bit, first pull the front cap
off and then pull the bit firmly. To install
the bit, insert
it into the tool as far as it
will go and then replacethe front cap.
Depthadjustment
When you wish to drive self drilling screws,
etc., adjust the depth as follows. Turn the
locator toadjust the depth.
Initially, adjust the locator to create
a dis-
tance of approximately
1 mm (3/64”) from
the tip of the front cap (which works in
conjunction with the locator) to the base
of the screw head. One full turn of the
locator equals
1 mm (3/64“) change in
depth. After adjusting the locator, turn
the adjusting ring
so that the 6” mark is
aligned with the pointer on the gear hous-
ing. Drive
a trial screw into your material
or
a piece of duplicate material. If the
depth is not suitable for the screw, con-
tinue adjusting until the proper depth
set-
ting is obtained.
