instructions and applicable regulations.
WARNING: To reduce the risk
of serious personal injury, turn
tool off and disconnect tool from
power source before making any
adjustments or removing/installing
attachments or accessories.
Proper Hand Position (fi g. 1, 3)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, ALWAYS
use proper hand position as shown
in figure 3.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, ALWAYS hold
securely in anticipation of a sudden

A variable speed trigger switch (a) permits speed
control—the farther the trigger is depressed, the
higher the speed of the drill.
For continuous operation, press and hold the
variable speed switch, move the lock-on button (b)
up, then release the switch.
NOTE: Use lower speeds for starting holes without
a center punch, drilling in metal or plastics, driving
screws or drilling ceramics. Higher speeds are better
for drilling wood and composition boards and using
abrasive and polishing accessories.
The forward/reverse lever (c) is used for withdrawing
bits from tight holes and removing screws. It is
located above the trigger switch. To reverse the
motor, release the trigger switch FIRST and then
push the lever to the right. After any reversing
operations, return lever to forward position.
To stop continuous operation, press the switch
briefly and release it. Always switch the tool off when
work is finished and before unplugging.
Drilling
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
personal injury, ALWAYS ensure
workpiece is anchored or clamped
firmly. If drilling thin material, use a wood
"back-up" block to prevent damage to
the material.
1. Use sharp drill bits only. For WOOD, use twist
drill bits, spade bits, power auger bits, or hole
saws. For METAL, use steel twist drill bits or
hole saws.
2. Always apply pressure in a straight line with the
bit. Use enough pressure to keep drill biting, but
do not push hard enough to stall the motor or
deflect the bit.
3. Hold tool firmly with both hands to control the
twisting action of the drill.
4. IF DRILL STALLS, it is usually because
it is being overloaded or improperly used.
RELEASE TRIGGER IMMEDIATELY, remove
drill bit from work, and determine cause of
stalling. DO NOT CLICK TRIGGER ON
AND OFF IN AN ATTEMPT TO START A
STALLED DRILL — THIS CAN DAMAGE
THE DRILL.
5. To minimize stalling or breaking through the
material, reduce pressure on drill and ease the
bit through the last fractional part of the hole.
6. Keep the motor running when pulling the bit
back out of a drilled hole. This will help prevent
jamming.
