INTRODUCTION:
These unite have the idea speed and torque combination required for both
drilling and screw driving application. To get an optimum performance and
protect your self, please read the following instruction carefully to get before the
tool used. FEATURES
VARIABLE SPEED SWITCH
The variable speed switch provides safety feature to the user for screw driving.
To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch. To turn the tool off, release the
trigger switch (see Fig. 1A). Your tool is equipped with a brake. The chuck will
stop as soon as the trigger switch is fully released. The variable speed switch
enables you to select the best speed for a particular application. The farther
you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool will operate. Use lower speeds for
starting holes without a center punch, drilling metals or plastic, driving screws
and drilling ceramics, or in any application requiring high torque. Higher speeds
are better drilling in wood,wood compositions and for using abrasive and
polishing accessories. For maximum tool life, use variable speed only for
starting holes or fasteners.
NOTE:Continuous use in variable speed range is not recommended. It may
damage the switch and should be avoided.

FORWARD / REVERSE CONTROL BUTTON
A forward/reverse control button determines the direction of the tool and also
serves as a lock off button. To select forward rotation, RELEASE THE TRIGGER
SWITCH (see Fig. 1A), and depress the forward/reverse control button (see Fig.
1B), toward left side of the tool. To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse
control button (see Fig. 1B), toward right side of the tool. The center position
of the control button (see Fig.1B) locks the tool in the off position. When
change the position of the control button, making sure the trigger is released.
NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing the direction of rotation, you
may hear a click on start up. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
TORQUE ADJUSTMENT COLLAR
The clutch feature of your Driver/Drill is an adjustable torque screwdriver
mechanism for driving and removing a wide array of fastener shapes and sizes
(see Fig. 2). The clutch allows you to instantaneously regulate the torque,
based on the force applied.
FOR THE DRILL DRIVER:
Circling the collar are numbers ranging from 1 to 23 and a drill bit symbol.
These numbers are used to set the clutch to deliver a torque range. The higher
number on the collars, the higher torque and larger the fastener which can be
driven. To select any of the numbers, rotate until the desire number aligns with
the selector.
DUAL RANGE GEARING
The dual range feature of your Driver/Drill allows you to shift gears for greater
versatility. To select the low speed, high torque setting (position L), turn the
tool off and permit to stop. Push the button forward towards the chuck (see Fig.
3). To select the high speed, low torque setting (position H), turn the tool off
and permit to stop. Slide the gear shifter back (away from chuck).
NOTE: Do not change gears when the tool is running. If you are having trouble
changing gears, make sure that the dual range gear button is either completely
pushed forward or completely pushed back.
CLUTCH LOCK
To lock the clutch for drilling operations, simply move the Driver/Drill selector to
the “Drill” position as described under “Operation as a Drill”
This symbol indicates the DRILL POSITION. To select this mode for
high speed drilling (Wood, Aluminum, and Steel) and the clutch
will be locked. The trigger has to be released to stop the running
motor when the chuck slipping or shaft locked.
To select this mode with high speed provides for masonry or
concrete drilling. The trigger has to be released to stop the
running motor when the chuck slipping or shaft locked.
INSERTING AND REMOVING DRILL AND SCREWDRIVER BITS
CAUTION
Always set the reversing button to the center (locked “OFF”) position
when installing and removing bits.
1. The three-jaw chuck is designed for self-centering of the bit. Open
jaws large enough by turning the sleeve (A) Fig.4 counterclockwise,
when viewing the chuck from the bit end, so that the bit shank can
be inserted easily.
2. Clean and insert the smooth end of the bit as far as it will go into the
chuck, or up to the flutes for small bits.
3. While holding the bit with one hand, turn the sleeve (A) Fig4

clockwise until the bit is gripped in the chuck.
4. Tighten the chuck by turning the sleeve (A) clockwise. Tighten
securely.
5. To remove the bit, reverse procedure.
WARNING
Do not operate the drill motor while installing or removing bits. This
action may cause the bit to be thrown form the chuck, causing personal
injury.
DRIVER BIT STORAGE
Convenient storage areas with retaining clip, for screwdriver bits are provided
on each side of the tool. (See Fig. 5A)
OPERATION MANUAL
NORMAL CHARGING
Make sure power circuit voltage is the same as that shown on the charger
specification plate. Connect charger to power source. The orange light (A) Fig.
6, should light up. This indicates the charger is ready to begin charging.
Position battery pack on charger; align rails (see Fig. 6D), on battery charger
with four tabs (see Fig. 7E) on battery pack. Slide battery forward onto charger
until it stops.
The red light (see Fig. 6B), should begin to glow continuously, indicating that
the battery pack is receiving a “Fast Charge” (if the red light does not glow
continuously, and the green light (see Fig. 6C), begins to glow: remove battery
and re-insert when battery temperature is between 32(0) and 113(45).
After approximately one hour, the “Fast Charge” indicator light (red) should go
out indicating that the battery pack is fully charged and that the charger is now
in a “Trickle Charge” mode (green light). The battery pack can be left on “Trickle
Charge” until you are ready to use it. Depending on room temperature, line
voltage, and existing charge level, initial battery charging may take longer than
one hour. Disconnect charger from power source when not is use.

TO INSTALL BATTERY PACK : Align rails (see Fig 8A), on the tool with the
four tabs on the battery pack, and push battery pack onto tool until it locks in
place.
CHUCK REMOVAL
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
Turn the adjustment collar to the “drill” position and low speed gear shifter.
Tighten the chuck around the shorter end of a hex key (not supplied) of 1/4” or
greater size. Using a wooden mallet or similar object, strike the longer end in
the clockwise direction. This will loosen the screw inside the chuck.
1. Open chuck jaws fully.
2. Insert a screwdriver into front of chuck between jaws to engage screw
head. Remove screw by turning clockwise.
3. Place a hex key in chuck and tighten. Using a wooden mallet or similar
object, strike key sharply in the counterclockwise direction (see Fig. 9).
This will loosen the chuck so that it can be unscrewed by hand.
CHUCK INSTALLATION
1. Screw the chuck on by hand as far as it will go and insert screw (LH
thread).
2. Tighten screw securely.
3. Tighten the chuck around the shorter end of a 1/4”a or large hex key (not
supplied) strike the longer end in the clockwise direction with a wooden mallet
(see Fig. 10).
OPERATION AS A DRILL
Turn the collar to the drill bit symbol. Install and tighten the desired drill bit in
the chuck. Select the desired speed/torque range using the dual range gear
shifter to match the speed and torque to the planned operation. Follow these
instructions for best results when drilling.
DRILLING
Use sharp drill bits only. For WOOD, use twist drill bits, spade bits, power auger
bits, or hole saws. For METAL, use high-speed steel twist drill bits, or hole saws.
For MASONRY, such as brick, cement, cinder block, etc., use carbide-tipped
bits. Be sure the material to be drilled is anchored or clamped firmly. If drilling
thin material, use a “back-up” block to damage to the material. Always apply
pressure in a straight line with the bit. Uses enough pressure to keep the drill
biting, but do not push hard enough to stall the motor or defect the bit.
Hold tool firmly to control the twisting of the drill.

IF DRILL STALLS, it usually because it is being overloaded RELEASE
TRIGGER IMMEDIATELY, removes drill from work, and determine cause of
stalling. DO NOT CLICK TRIGGER OFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPT TO START
A STALLED DRILL - THIS CAN DAMAGE THE DRILL.
To minimize stalling or breaking through the material, reduce pressure on drill
and ease the bit through the last fractional part of the hole.
Keep the motor running when pulling the bit back out of a drilled hole. This will
help prevent jamming.
With variable speed drills there is no need to center punch the point to be
drilled. Use a slow speed to start the hole is deep enough to drill without the bit
skipping out. Operate at full on after starting the bit.
DRILLING IN WOOD
Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drills use for metal. These bits
may overheat unless pulled out frequently to clear chips from the flutes. For
large hole, use low speed wood bits. Work that is likely to splinter should be
backed up with a block of wood.
DRILLING IN METALS
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and
brass, which should be drilled dry. The cutting lubricants that work best are
sulphurized cutting oil or lard oil; bacon grease also serves the purpose.
DRILLING MASONRY
Use carbide tipped masonry bits at low speeds. Keep even force on the drill but
not so much that you crack brittle materials. A smooth, even flow of dust
indicates the proper drilling rate.
OPERATION AS A SCREWDRIVER
Turn the river/Drill selector to the symbol of a screw. Select the desired
speed/torque range using the dual range gear shifter on the top of tool to match
the speed and torque to the planned operation. Insert the desired fastener
accessory into the chuck as you would any drill bit. Make a few practice runs in
scrap or unseen areas to determine the proper position of the clutch collar.
MAINTENANCE
CLEANING: With the motor running, blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
dry air at least once a week. Wear safety glasses when performing this.
Exterior plastic parts may be cleaned a damp cloth and mild detergent.
Although these parts are highly are solvent resistant, NEVER use solvent.
CHARGER CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:
Dirt and grease may be removed from the exterior of the charger using a cloth
or soft non-metallic brush. Do not use water or any cleaning solutions.
WARNING: Disconnect the charger from the AC outlet before cleaning
solutions.
ACCESSORIES
Recommended accessories for use with your tool are available at extra cost
from your local service center.
IMPORTANT! To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
