Drilling operation

First, turn the adjusting ring so that the arrow points to 

the 

 marking. Then proceed as follows.

Drilling in wood

When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained 

with wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide 

screw makes drilling easier by pulling the drill bit into 

the workpiece.

Drilling in metal

To prevent the drill bit from slipping when starting a 

hole, make an indentation with a center-punch and 

hammer at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the 

drill bit in the indentation and start drilling.

Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The excep-

tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.

CAUTION:

 

Pressing excessively on the tool 

will not speed up the drilling.

 In fact, this excessive 

pressure will only serve to damage the tip of your drill 

bit, decrease the tool performance and shorten the 

service life of the tool.

CAUTION:

 

Hold the tool firmly and exert care 

when the drill bit begins to break through the 

workpiece.

 There is a tremendous force exerted on 

the tool/drill bit at the time of hole break through.

CAUTION:

 

A stuck drill bit can be removed 

simply by setting the reversing switch to reverse 

rotation in order to back out. However, the tool 

may back out abruptly if you do not hold it firmly.

CAUTION:

 

Always secure workpieces in a 

vise or similar hold-down device.

CAUTION:

 

If the tool is operated continuously 

until the battery cartridge has discharged, allow 

the tool to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding 

with a fresh battery.

Using the tool as a hand screwdriver

Switch off the tool.  

Move the reversing switch lever to the neutral position. 

Turn the action mode changing ring so that the arrow 
points to the 

 marking. 

Turn the tool.

NOTE:

 This use is convenient for checking the 

screwdriving.

NOTE:

 Do not use the tool for work requiring exces-

sive force, such as tightening bolt or removing rusted 

screws.

Using holster

Optional accessory

CAUTION:

 

When using the holster, remove a 

driver bit/drill bit from the tool.

CAUTION:

 

Turn off the tool and wait until it 

comes to a complete stop before placing it in the 

holster.  

Be sure to close the holster securely with the 

holster button so that it holds the tool firmly.
