FORWARD AND REVERSE
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled by a
selector located above the trigger switch. (Fig. D)
Drilling uses the forward mode. The reverse mode is intended
for the removal of screws and assisting with the removal of
jammed drill bits.

TWO-SPEED GEAR CONTROL
The high/low speed range selector allows you to select
the gear with the optimum speed and torque to suit the
application. (Fig. E)
To select the low speed, high torque setting, turn the tool off
and allow it to stop. Slide the gear selector forward (towards
the chuck). The word 1 will be displayed.
To select the high speed, low torque setting, turn the tool off
and allow it to stop. Slide the gear shifter back (away from
chuck).The word 2 will be displayed.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
ADJUSTABLE TORQUE CONTROL
This drill is equipped with 16 torque clutch positions, including
one drill mode, which are controlled by the torque clutch. All of
the torque settings are clearly identified on the torque collar.
To adjust the torque settings, rotate the torque collar. The
higher the number, the higher the torque setting. (Fig. F)
Controlling the torque allows for better control when using the
drill on specific screwing tasks and prevents over-fastening
and over-tightening.
For drilling, always use the drill mode by aligning the drill icon
with the triangular indicator on the front face of the drill near
the torque collar.
The proper setting will depend on the type of material and the
size of the screw that is being used. Select the option that best
matches the type of bit, the fastener, and the type of material.
DRILL MODE
Select the drill mode for drilling and other heavy-duty
applications, especially for hardwood and metal. To select the
drill mode, rotate the torque clutch until the drill icon is aligned
with the triangular indicator on the front face of the drill near
the torque clutch.
KEYLESS CHUCK
The arrows on the chuck indicate the direction of rotation of
the body of the chuck to grip or release the drill bit. (Fig. G)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION!
To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck to come to a
complete stop before changing the direction of rotation.
CAUTION!
Do not change between low speed and high speed while the tool
is running. Failure to obey this caution could result in serious
damage to the drill.
WARNING!
Do not hold the body of the chuck with one hand while using the
power of the drill to tighten the jaws of the chuck on the drill bit.
The body of the chuck could slip in your hand, or your hand could
slip and come into contact with the rotating bit. This could cause
an accident and result in serious personal injury.
NOTE:The drill will not run unless the direction of forward/reverse
selector is engaged fully to the left or right.
NOTE:This device is fitted with a spindle lock and the chuck is a
one-handed operation.

The belt hook is used to hang the tool on your waist belt while
working. Install the belt hook securely in the groove of the drill
and tighten the screw to fix the hook firmly. (Fig. I)
ACCESSORY HOLDER
Install the accessory holder securely in the groove of the drill
and tighten the screw to fix the holder firmly. (Fig. J) A bit may
be stored on the accessory holder by snapping it into place.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
This drill is fitted with an overload protection. If the drill is
excessively forced, or the task being performed is too great for
the drill, the drill will automatically go into an overload mode.
When the drill goes into overload, the drill will automatically
and suddenly stop. To reset the overload, simply release the
trigger switch. When the trigger switch is pressed again,
the drill will restart. Resume work after the overload has
been reset, but reduce the load by using a smaller drill bit or
re-sharpen the existing drill bit and reduce the amount of force
placed on the drill. If the drill is set to high speed on the gear
selector, consider changing to low speed selection.

TEMPERATURE CUT OUT
If the drill is constantly overloaded, or the drill is used constantly at maximum rating in
high ambient temperatures, the battery cells may overheat causing the battery pack to
shut down. When this occurs you will need to immediately stop drilling and allow the
battery cells to cool down.
LOW VOLTAGE CUT OUT
The battery pack used on this tool is fitted with a low voltage cut out feature within the
circuitry. The low voltage cut out feature operates when the voltage drops below a pre-
set value. This feature automatically stops the tool from operating (similar to that of the
overload condition). When this condition occurs you will need to either insert another
battery pack into the tool or recharge the existing battery pack.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Attempting to restart the tool without either recharging
the battery or installing another battery (with charge) will lead to
drill restarting and then stopping again, after only a few seconds of
operation.
WARNING!
Be prepared for binding when the bit breaks through the
workpiece, because the drill has a tendency to grab and kick
opposite to the direction of rotation, which could cause a loss of
control. If the operator is not prepared, this loss of control could
result in serious injury.
