1. Slide the pilot pin through the hole in the center
of the cutter shank.
2. Push up on the quick-release collar (i).
3. Insert the cutter with pilot pin and turn until the
flat meets the locking pin. When the flat meets

It may be necessary to adjust the motor
position when chuck is installed. Please refer to
Adjusting the Motor Height
for instructions.
Consult your dealer for further information on the
appropriate accessories.
Setting the Speed (fi g. 7)
WARNING:
Do not change gears at full
speed or during use.
The machine is equipped with a two-gear selector to
vary the speed/torque ratio.
1. Rotate the gear selector tab (d) out of the
detent slot and shift into the desired mode.
2. Lock the selector tab back into the detent.
LOW SPEED AND HIGH TORQUE:
The yellow dot (aa) should be aligned with
position 1 for low speed and high torque
(holes from 32 to 50 mm).
HIGH SPEED AND LOW TORQUE:
The yellow dot (aa) should be aligned with
position 2, for high speed and low torque
(holes from 12 to 30 mm).
NOTE:
It may be necessary to slightly turn the
spindle by hand a little to complete the gear change.
Adjusting the Motor Height (fi g. 11)
The motor height can be adjusted to accommodate
the need for more or less bit clearance over the
workpiece.
1. Loosen the motor slide bolt (bb) with the
supplied hex key tool (cc).
2. Position the motor to the desired height.
3. Tighten the bolt firmly with the hex tool to
secure the motor in position.

OPERATION
Instructions for Use
WARNING:
Always observe the safety
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.
•
Apply only a gentle pressure to
the tool. Excessive force does not
speed up drilling but decreases tool
performance and may shorten tool life.
•
If the accessory jams, stop the motor
and gently raise the accessory out of
the workpiece before resuming work.
• Always use the safety chain.
• Always use the drill guard.
