NOTE:
If the driver bit is not inserted deep enough
into the sleeve, the sleeve will not return to its original
position and the driver bit will not be secured. In this
case, try re-inserting the bit according to the instruc
-
tions above.
NOTE:
After inserting the driver bit, make sure that it
is firmly secured. If it comes out, do not use it.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always insert the battery cartridge
all the way until it locks in place.
If not, it may
accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you
or someone around you.
CAUTION:
When the speed comes down
extremely, reduce the load or stop the tool to
avoid the tool damage.
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip and the
other hand on the bottom of the battery cartridge to
control the twisting action.

Screwdriving operation
CAUTION:
Adjust the adjusting ring to the
proper torque level for your work.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the driver bit is
inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw
and/or driver bit may be damaged.
Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and
apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then
increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger
as soon as the clutch cuts in.
NOTE:
When driving wood screw, pre-drill a pilot hole
2/3 the diameter of the screw. It makes driving easier
and prevents splitting of the workpiece.
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
►
Fig.11
Switch off the tool.
Move the reversing switch lever to the neutral position.
Turn the adjusting 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
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.
