This tool provides a quick, convenient means of drill-
ing small holes and installing and removing screws.
Because of the many screw sizes, types, thread en-
gagements and materials available, it is difficult to
limit the application of this tool by screw size. How-
ever, for applications in wood, a #6 wood screw with
a full pilot hole is recommended as a practical limit.
Drilling in Wood, Composition Materials and
Plastic
Always use sharp bits. When using twist drill bits,
pull the bit out of the hole frequently to clear chips
from the bit flutes. To reduce the chance of splinter-
ing, back work with a piece of scrap wood. Select
low speeds for plastics with a low melting point.
Driving Screws
Drill a pilot hole when driving screws into thick or
hard materials. Set the clutch adjusting ring to the
proper position and set the speed to low. Use the
proper style and size screwdriver bit for the type
of screw you are using.
With the screwdriver bit in the screw, place the tip
of the screw on the workpiece and apply firm pres-
sure before pressing the foward/reverse switch up.
Screws can be removed by pressing the foward/
reverse switch down.
Locking the Screwdriver Bit
When the tool is off, the screwdriver bit auto-
matically locks in place allowing you to use the
screwdriver manually. Do this to tighten screws
that require more torque than the driver is capable
of delivering, when confirming the tightness of a
screw or when loosening an extremely tight screw.
