Set Forward/Reversing lever to the center (off
position). Slide charged battery pack into the
housing until the battery pack locks into
position (Fig. 10).
Your tool is equipped with a secondary locking
latch to prevent the battery pack from
completely falling out of the handle, should it
become loose due to vibration.
To remove the battery pack, press the battery
pack release button and slide the battery pack
forward (Fig. 11).
Press the battery pack release button again
and slide the battery pack completely out of
tool housing (Fig. 11).

DEPTH GAUGE
Your drilling depth can be pre-set and/or
repeated by using the depth gauge.
Setting depth: After the auxiliary handle is
installed, make sure the drill bit has been fully
inserted into the chuck before setting the depth
gauge.
To adjust depth, turn the wing nut counter-
clockwise to loosen depth gauge, slide depth
gauge to desired depth X and securely tighten
wing nut clockwise (Fig. 12).
TEMPERATURE OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Avoid using battery operated tools
continuously, for long periods of time, while
subjecting the tool to overload conditions, such
as drilling with large diameter accessories into
hard materials. Using battery powered tools at
extreme loads, may cause the battery to
exceed its allowable operating temperature
range. When the battery exceeds normal
operating temperature caused by overload, the
speed of the tool may be reduced and the tool
may appear to lose power. To regain the tool's
full performance, the battery must be allowed
to cool, until the operating temperature returns
to normal.
RAPID SHUT-OFF (KICK BACK CONTROL)
To ensure better control of the tool during
operation, this tool is design to shut-off while in
use if a sudden or unexpected bind up
situation occurs. Bind up occurs when the bit
gets jammed during operation, which forces
the bit to stop spinning abruptly. If this occurs,
the tool will shut down and the Rapid Shut-off
will be indicated by a flashing LED on the tool.
This feature can only be activated when the
tool is running at maximum speed.
