ADJUSTING THE AUXILIARY HANDLE
ASSEMBLY
See Figure 9, page 11.
To adjust the auxiliary handle assembly:
 Loosen the handle assembly by turning the handle
counterclockwise.
 Insert the auxiliary handle assembly in the desired
operating position.
 Securely tighten by turning the auxiliary handle clockwise.
NOTE: Be sure the auxiliary handle is securely tightened
against the depth stop rod clamp. This secures the depth
stop rod at the desired depth of cut. It also secures the
auxiliary handle.
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH STOP ROD
See Figure 10, page 11.
The depth stop rod helps control the depth of drilled holes.
For convenience and ease of starting threads, the hex nut has
been trapped inside the molded slot in the auxiliary handle.
To adjust the depth stop rod:
 Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation
selector in the center position.
 Loosen the auxiliary handle assembly by turning the knob
counterclockwise.
 Adjust the depth stop rod so that the drill bit extends
beyond the end of the rod to the required drilling depth.
 Tighten the auxiliary handle assembly by turning the knob
clockwise.
NOTE: When properly installed, the teeth on the depth stop
rod should be aligned with the teeth indicator on the depth
stop rod clamp.
DRILLING/DRIVING SCREWS
See Figure 11, page 11.
WARNING:
Always use the auxiliary handle when using this tool to
help resist torque reactions. Binding or stalling of this
product could lead to serious personal injury.
 Install the auxiliary handle.
 Check the direction of rotation selector for the correct
setting (forward or reverse).
OPERATION
 Use LO (1) speed for high torque applications and
HI (2) speed for fast drilling or driving applications. Refer
to Two-Speed Gear Train and Adjusting Torque.
 Secure the workpiece in a vise or with clamps to keep it
from turning as the bit rotates.
 Hold the drill firmly and place the bit at the point to be
drilled, or where the screw is to be driven.
WARNING
Do not drive a screw where there is likely to be hidden
wiring behind the surface. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and possibly
shock the operator. If you must drive a screw where
hidden wire may be present, always hold tool by insulated
gripping surfaces (handle) when performing the operation
to prevent a shock to the operator.
 Depress the switch trigger to start the drill.
 Move the bit into the workpiece, applying only enough
pressure to keep the bit cutting or driving the screw. Do
not force the drill or apply side pressure to elongate a
hole. Let the tool do the work.
WARNING
When drilling, be prepared for binding at bit breakthrough.
When these situations occur, drill has a tendency to grab
and kick opposite to the direction of rotation and could
cause loss of control when breaking through material. If
not prepared, this loss of control can result in possible
serious injury.
 When drilling hard, smooth surfaces, use a center punch
to mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the bit
from slipping off-center as the hole is started.
 If the bit jams in the workpiece or if the drill stalls, stop
the tool immediately. Remove the bit from the workpiece
and determine the reason for jamming.
NOTE: This drill has an electric brake. When the switch trig-
ger is released, the chuck stops turning. When the brake is
functioning properly, sparks will be visible through the vent
slots on the housing. This is normal and is the action of the
brake.
