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.

Selecting Speed 

The speed selector is on top of the motor housing. 

Allow the tool to come to a complete stop before 

changing speeds. See “Applications” for recom-

mended speeds under various 

conditions.

1. For 

Low

 speed, push the 

speed selector to display “1”.

2. For 

High

 speed, push the 

speed selector to display “2”.

Using the Control Switch

The control switch may be set to three positions: 

forward, reverse and lock. Due to a lockout mecha-

nism, the control switch can only be adjusted when 

the ON/OFF switch is not pressed. Always allow 

the motor to come to a complete stop before using 

the control switch.

For 

forward 

(clockwise) rotation, 

push in the control switch from the 

right side of the tool. 

Check  the 

direction of rotation before use.

For 

reverse 

(counterclockwise) 

rotation, push in the control switch 

from the left side of the tool. 

Check 

direction of rotation before use. 

To

 lock

 the trigger,

 

push the control 

switch to the center position. The 

trigger will not work while the con-

trol switch is in the center locked 

position. Always lock the trigger 

or remove the battery pack before 

performing maintenance, changing 

accessories, storing the tool and 

any time the tool is not in use.

The  torque  specifications  shown  here  are  approximate 

values obtained with a fully charged battery pack.

Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed

1. To 

start

 the tool, grasp the handle firmly 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.

Battery Pack Protection

To protect the battery from damage and extend 

its life, the tool’s intelligent circuit monitors current 

draw, temperature, and voltage drops. 

In extremely high torque, binding, stalling, and short 

circuit situations that cause high current draw, the 

tool will vibrate for about 5 seconds, the fuel gauge 

will flash, and then the tool will turn OFF. To reset, 

release the trigger. 

Under extreme circumstances, the internal tem-

perature of the battery could become too high. 

If this happens, the fuel gauge will flash and the 

battery pack will shut off. Let the battery pack cool 

and then continue work.
