NOTE:
Because the settings shown in the table are only
a guide, use a piece of scrap material to test the different
clutch settings before driving screws into the workpiece.
Installing Bits
Always remove the battery before inserting or
removing bits. Select the proper style and size bit
for the job.
This tool is equipped with a spindle lock. The chuck
can be tightened with one hand, creating higher grip
strengths on the bit.
1. To open the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the
counterclockwise direction.
When using drill bits, allow the bit to strike the
bottom of the chuck. Center the bit in the chuck
jaws and lift it about 1/16” off of the bottom.
When using screwdriver bits, insert the bit far
enough for the chuck jaws to grip the hex of the
bit.
2. To close the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the
clockwise direction. The bit is secure when the
chuck makes a ratcheting sound and the sleeve
can not be rotated any further.
3. To remove the bit, turn the sleeve in the coun-
terclockwise direction.
NOTE:
A ratcheting sound may be heard when the
chuck is opened or closed. This noise is part of the
locking feature, and does not indicate a problem
with the chuck’s operation.
3.
To use the driving screws
mode
rotate the application
selector collar until the drive
symbol
appears in line with
the arrow. Then rotate the torque
selector collar until the desired
clutch setting appears in line with
the arrow.
The adjustable clutch, when properly adjusted,
will slip at a preset torque to prevent driving the
screw too deep into different materials and to
prevent damage to the screw or tool.
The torque specifi cations shown here are approximate
values obtained with a fully charged battery pack.

ASSEMBLY
WARNING
Recharge only with the
charger specifi ed for the battery. For specifi c
charging instructions, read the operator’s
manual supplied with your charger and battery.
Inserting/Removing the Battery
To
remove
the battery, push in the release buttons
and pull the battery pack away from the tool.
To
insert
the battery, slide the pack into the body of
the tool. Make sure it latches securely into place.
Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed
1. To
start
the tool, grasp the handles fi rmly and
pull the trigger.
NOTE: An LED is turned on when the trigger is
pulled.
2. To
vary
the speed, increase or decrease the
pressure on the trigger. The further the trigger
is pulled, the greater the speed.
3. To
stop
the tool, release the trigger. Make sure
the bit comes to a complete stop before laying
the tool down.
Drilling
Place the bit on the work surface and apply fi rm
pressure before starting. Too much pressure will
slow the bit and reduce drilling effi ciency. Too little
pressure will cause the bit to slide over the work
area and dull the point of the bit.
If the tool begins to stall, reduce pressure slightly
to allow the bit to regain speed. If the bit binds,
reverse the motor to free the bit from the workpiece.

To reduce the risk of injury,
always hold or brace securely.
