To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles or glasses
with side shields.
Using Forward/Reverse Switch (Fig. 8)
Fig. 8
reverse
1. For forward (clockwise) rotation, push the forward/reverse switch
to FWD as shown.
Check the direction of rotation before use.
2. For reverse (counterclockwise) rotation, push the forward/reverse
switch to REV as shown.
Check the direction of rotation before use.
Although an interlock prevents reversing the tool while the motor is
running, allow the motor to come to a full stop before reversing.
Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed
To reduce the risk of injury, keep hands and cord away from
the bit and all moving parts.
1. To start the tool, pull trigger.
2. To stop the tool, release the trigger.
3. To vary the speed, increase or decrease pressure to the trigger. The
further the trigger is pulled, the greater the speed.
Drilling
To reduce the risk of explosion, electric shock and property
damage, always check the work area for hidden pipes and
wires before drilling.
1. Before drilling, be sure the workpiece is clamped securely. Use
backing material to prevent damage to the workpiece during break-
through.
2. When starting a hole, place the drill bit on the work surface and
apply firm pressure. Begin drilling at a slow speed, gradually in-
creasing the speed as you drill.
3. Always apply pressure in line with the bit. Use enough pressure to
keep the drill biting, but do not push hard enough to stall the motor.
4. Reduce pressure and ease the bit through the last part of the hole.
While the tool is still running, pull the bit out of the hole to prevent
jamming.

OPERATION
Stalling
If the tool seems as if it is about to stall, maintain a firm grip and reduce
pressure slightly to allow the bit to regain speed. If the tool does stall,
release the trigger immediately. Reverse the motor, remove the bit from
the work and start again. Do not pull the trigger on and off in an attempt
to start a stalled drill. This can damage the drill.
To reduce the risk of personal injury, hold the tool securely.
Brace tools with side handles as shown (Fig. 9, 10 & 11). If the
bit binds, the tool will be forced in the opposite direction. Bits
may bind if they are misaligned or when breaking through a
hole. Wood boring bits can also bind if they run into nails or
knots.
