Operation

Operating the drill

 

Ƒ

This Drill is designed to operate on 90 PSIG. Lower 
pressure (below 90 PSIG) will reduce performance of 
the tool. Higher air pressure (over 90 PSIG) raises the 
performance of the tool beyond its rated capacity and 
could cause serious damage to tool and user.

Changing the rotation direction

 

Ƒ

The direction of the bit rotation is reversible. 

 

Ƒ

Control the rotation direction by moving the side-mounted 
switch to F (forward) or R (reverse) as required for the 
operation.
