Installing a Bit or Accessory into a Keyless
Chuck (Fig.C)

WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or
any other accessory) by gripping the front part of the
chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck
and personal injury may result. Always lock off trigger
switch and disconnect tool from power source when
changingacces sories.


To insert a drill bit
13
or other accessory, follow thesesteps.
1. Turn tool off and remove batterypack.
2. Grasp the black sleeve of the chuck with one hand
and use the other hand to secure the tool. Rotate the
sleeve counterclockwise far enough to accept the
desiredaccessory.
3. Insert the accessory about 19 mm into the chuck
9
and
tighten securely by grasping and rotating the chuck sleeve
10
clockwise with one hand while holding the tool with the other.
When the chuck is nearly tightened you will hear a clicking
sound. Tighten the sleeve until the clicks stop and it will not
rotate any further. Your tool is equipped with an automatic
spindle lock mechanism. This allows you to open and close the
chuck with onehand.
4. Be sure to tighten chuck with one hand on the chuck sleeve
and one hand holding the tool for maximumtightness.
5. To release the accessory, repeat steps 1and 2above.
Variable Speed Trigger and Forward/Reverse
Control Button (Fig.A)
The tool is turned on and off by pulling and releasing the
variable speed trigger switch
4
. The farther the trigger is
depressed, the higher the speed of the tool. Your tool is
equipped with a brake. The chuck will stop as soon as the
trigger switch is fullyreleased.
A forward/reverse control button
5
determines the rotational
direction of the tool and also serves as a lock-offbutton.
• To select forward rotation (clockwise), release the trigger
and depress the forward/reverse control button on the right
side of thetool.
• To select reverse (counterclockwise), depress the forward/
reverse control button on the left side of thetool.
NOTE: The centre position of the control button locks the tool
in the off position. When changing the position of the control
button, be sure the trigger isreleased.
NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not
recommended. It may damage the switch and should
beavoided.
NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing the direction
of rotation, you may hear a click on start-up. This is normal and
does not indicate aproblem.
Worklight (Fig.A)
The worklight
8
is activated when the trigger switch
4
is
depressed, and will automatically turn off 20seconds after
the trigger switch is released. If the trigger switch remains
depressed, the worklight will remainon.
NOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface
and is not intended to be used as aflashlight.
