INSTALLING OR REMOVING THE BATTERY (cont.)

Getting the Best Performance from the Battery
The length of service from each charging cycle will depend on the type of work
undertaken.
To obtain the longest possible battery life, we suggest the following:
•
Store and charge your batteries in a cool area. Temperatures above or below
normal room temperature will shorten battery life.
•
Never store batteries in a discharged condition. Recharge them immediately
after they are discharged.
•
All batteries gradually lose their charge. The higher the temperature the
quicker they lose their charge. If you store your drill for long periods of time
without using it, recharge the batteries every month or two. This practice will
prolong battery life.
Getting Started
It is important to understand the functions of the various controls. Please see
below how and when to use the variable speed switch, forward/reverse control
and torque control.
Familiarize yourself with these controls before first use of your new drill.
Variable Speed Switch
•
Turn the drill ON by depressing the variable speed
switch (9) (see Fig. 4).
•
To turn the drill OFF, release the variable speed
switch (9).
•
The speed can be varied from 0 to maximum,
depending on the pressure applied to the variable
speed switch (9). This allows you to select the best
possible speed for the job on hand.
Changing the Direction of Rotation
•
The direction of rotation can be changed with the
forward/reverse selector (4). This is located above
the speed switch (9) (see Fig. 5).
•
To select the forward drilling position, push the forward/reverse selector (4)
hard left.
•
To select the reverse drilling position push the forward/reverse selector (4)
hard right.
