NOTE: The number selected on the torque selec-
tor collar has no effect on operation of the drill in
hammer mode.
NOTE: When using carbide bits, do not use water
to settle dust. Do not attempt to drill through steel
reinforcing rods. This will damage the carbide bits.
2. To use the drilling only mode, ro-
tate the application selector collar
until the drill symbol
line with the arrow.
NOTE: The number selected on the
torque selector collar has no effect
on operation of the drill in drilling mode.
3. To use the driving screws mode
rotate the application selector collar
until the drive symbol
line with the arrow. Then rotate the
torque selector collar until the desired
clutch setting appears in line with the
arrow.
The adjustable clutch, when properly adjusted, will
slip at a preset torque to prevent driving the screw
too deep into different materials and to prevent
damage to the screw or tool.
The torque specifications shown here are approximate
values obtained with a fully charged battery pack.

NOTE: Because the settings shown in the table are only a guide, use
a piece of scrap material to test the different clutch settings before
driving screws into the workpiece.
Selecting Speed
The speed selector is on top of the motor housing.
Allow the tool to come to a complete stop before
changing speeds. See "Applications"
for recommended speeds under
various conditions.
1. For Low speed, push the speed
selector to display "1".
2. For High speed, push the speed
selector to display "2".
Using the Control Switch
The control switch may be set to three positions:
forward, reverse and lock. Due to a lockout mecha-
nism, the control switch can only be adjusted when
the ON/OFF switch is not pressed.
Always allow the motor to come to a
complete stop before using the control
switch.
For forward (clockwise) rotation, push
in the control switch from the right side
of the tool. Check the direction of
rotation before use.
For reverse (counterclockwise) rota-
tion, push in the control switch from the
left side of the tool. Check direction
of rotation before use.

To lock the trigger, push the control
switch to the center position. The trig-
ger will not work while the control
switch is in the center locked position.
Always lock the trigger or remove the
battery pack before performing main-
tenance, changing accessories, stor-
ing the tool and any time the tool is not in use.

curely.
Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed
1. To start the tool, grasp the handle firmly and pull
the trigger.
NOTE: An LED is turned on when the trigger is pulled.
2. To vary the speed, increase or decrease the pres-
sure on the trigger. The further the trigger is pulled,
the greater the speed.
3. To stop the tool, release the trigger. Make sure the bit
comes to a complete stop before laying the tool down.
Battery Pack Protection
To protect the battery from damage and extend its
life, the tool's intelligent circuit monitors current draw,
temperature, and voltage drops.
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling, and short
circuit situations that cause high current draw, the
tool will vibrate for about 5 seconds, the fuel gauge
will flash, and then the tool will turn OFF. To reset,
release the trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal tem-
perature of the battery could become too high. If this
happens, the fuel gauge will flash and the battery
pack will shut off. Let the battery pack cool and then
continue work.
APPLICATIONS
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
WARNING
check work area for hidden pipes
and wires before drilling or driving screws.
To reduce the risk of injury in applications that
produce a considerable amount of dust, use
an OSHA compliant dust extraction solution
in accordance with the solution's operating
instructions.
Place the bit on the work surface and apply firm pres-
sure before starting. Too much pressure will slow the
bit and reduce drilling efficiency. Too little pressure
will cause the bit to slide over the work area and dull
the point of the bit.
If the tool begins to stall, reduce pressure slightly to
allow the bit to regain speed. If the bit binds, reverse
the motor to free the bit from the workpiece.
Drilling in Wood, Composition Materials
and Plastic
When drilling in wood, composition materials and
plastic, select the
Start the drill slowly, gradually increasing speed as
you drill. When drilling into wood, use wood augers
or twist drill bits. Always use sharp bits. When using
twist drill bits, pull the bit out of the hole frequently to
clear chips from the bit flutes. To reduce the chance of
splintering, back work with a piece of scrap wood. Se-
lect low speeds for plastics with a low melting point.
