HEX CHUCK (FIG 4)
Your screwdriver has a tool-less quick-change 1/4" Hex Chuck,
that accepts only standard 1/4" Hexagonal shank accessory with
a locking groove. You can quickly change bits with no extra tools
required.
• Place the forward/reverse switch in the center (Off) posision.
• To install a bit, insert the bit all the way into the chuck until it
locks with a click, as shown in fIG 4.
• Always make sure that the bit is seated firmly by pulling it.
Never attempt to operate a bit that is wobbly, unstable, or
broken.
• To remove a bit, slide the locking sleeve towards the clutch ring and hold, pull the bit off the chuck.
CLUTCH (TORQUE) SETTINGS
• During screwdriving applications, you can adjust the maximum torque that the driver will produce.
• This feature can be used to prevent the stripping and breaking of screws, or to set a series of screws to a
depth that fits your project.
• Set the clutch ring at the front of the driver to settings from 1 (lightest) to 16 (heaviest). Setting 16 is direct
drive (torque is not limited) and used primarily for drilling operations.
• In general, you will find the lower settings more useful with smaller screws and the higher settings more useful
for larger screws.
GENERAL SCREWDRIVING
1. Clamp your work piece.
2. Drill pilot holes for larger screws or when driving screws into hardwoods.
3. exert enough pressure to start the screw and keep it turning. Do not force the screw. Let the tool do the work.
GENERAL DRILLING
1. Clamp your work piece. use maximum torque setting then exert enough pressure to start the drill bit and keep it
cutting. Do not force or stall the bit. Don't bend or twist the bit. Let the tool and the blade do the work.
2. Maintain your balance and be prepared for binding and for when the bit breaks through the material.
WArNING
: Forcing a drill bit, bending or twisting the bit, or failure to maintain
balance in case of binding and breakthrough can result in serious personal injury.
3. Chattering or vibration may indicate you need a finer bit or higher speed. If the bit overheats or clogs, it may
indicate you need a coarser bit or slower speed setting. Replace bits when they become dull. Dull bits will
produce poor results and may overheat the drill.
4. use a coating of light oil when drilling into metal to keep the bit cool and to facilitate cutting.
