CHARGING YOUR BATTERIES (cont.)
•
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 tool for long periods of time
without using it, recharge the batteries every month or two. This practice will
prolong battery life.
The ON/OFF Switch
Turn the drill ON by depressing the switch. To turn the tool OFF, release the
variable speed switch (9).
Speed Control
The speed can be varied from 0 to maximum, depending on the pressure applied to
the switch. This way you can select the best possible speed for the job being done.
Changing the Direction of Rotation
The direction of rotation can be changed with the forward/reverse selector (7)
above the switch.
To select the forward drilling position, push the forward/reverse selector (7) hard left.
To select the reverse drilling position, push the forward/reverse selector (7) hard right.
The switch can be locked off by pushing the forward / reverse selector (7) into the
middle of both forward and reverse positions.
Do not change the direction of rotation while the chuck is still in motion.
Torque Settings (Tightening Power of Your Cordless Drill)
When using your drill for various driving applications, it becomes necessary to
increase and decrease the power and torque in order to prevent the possibility of
damaging screw heads, threads, work piece, etc.
In general, power and torque should correspond to the difficulty of the screw to be
driven. If torque is too high, the screws may be damaged or broken.
To Adjust Torque
•
Locate the arrow on the front of the housing.
•
Identify the torque settings and 1 drill setting on the torque adjustment collar.
•
Rotate the torque adjustment collar (3) to the desired setting, aligning the
number on the adjustment collar (3) with the arrow on the housing.
•
To increase or decrease torque, rotate torque adjustment collar (3). The lower
the number, the lower the torque setting. The higher the number, the higher
the torque setting.
Always check that the correct torque is selected by practising on scrap material
prior to carrying out a job.
Level Indicator
Use level indicator (4) for accurate drilling.
