ELECTRIC BRAkE
To stop the Drill, release the trigger switch and allow the tool to come to a
complete stop. The electric brake
quickly stops the rotation. This
feature engages automatically when
you release the trigger switch.
kEYLESS CHUCk
(Fig.6)
The drill has a keyless chuck to
tighten or release drill bits in the
chuck jaws. The arrows on the
chuck indicate the direction in which
to rotate the chuck body in order to
GRIP (tighten) or OPEN (release) the
chuck jaws on the drill bit.
WARNING:
Do not hold the chuck body with one hand and use the power of
the drill to tighten the chuck jaws on the drill bit. The chuck body could slip in
your hand, or your hand could slip and come in contact with the rotating bit. This
could cause an accident resulting in serious personal injury.
ADJUSTABLE TORQUE CLUTCH
(Fig. 7)
The torque clutch can be adjusted to
23+1 different settings. The higher
the torque setting, the more force the
drill produces to turn an object.
When using the drill for different
driving applications, it is necessary
to increase or decrease the torque
to help prevent the possibility of
damaging screw heads, threads,
workpiece, etc.
Adjust the torque by rotating the
torque-adjustment ring.
The proper setting depends on the job and the type of bit, fastener, and material
you will be using. In general, use greater torque for larger screws. If the torque
is too high, the screws may be damaged or broken.
For delicate operations, such as removing a partially stripped screw, use a
low torque setting. For operations such as drilling into hardwood, use a higher
torque setting.
CAUTION:
Do not change the torque setting when the tool is running.
