TO INSTALL BATTERY PACK

See Figure 2.

  Lock the switch trigger on the drill by placing the direc-

tion of rotation (forward/reverse/center lock) selector in 
center position.

  Place battery pack in the drill. Align raised rib on battery 

pack with the groove inside the drill.

  Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack 

snap  in  place  and  battery  pack  is  secured  in  the  drill 
before beginning operation.

TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK

See Figure 2.

  Lock the switch trigger on the drill by placing the direction 

of rotation selector in center position.

  Locate latches on side of battery pack and depress to 

release battery pack from the drill. 

  The  battery  pack  will  disconnect  in  direction  to  be  re-

moved when latches are depressed.

WARNING:

Battery  tools  are  always  in  operating  condition. 
Therefore, switch should always be locked when 
not in use or carrying at your side.

SWITCH TRIGGER

See Figure 3.

To turn the drill 

ON, depress the switch trigger. To turn it 

OFF, release the switch trigger.

VARIABLE SPEED

See Figure 3.

The variable speed switch trigger delivers higher speed with 
increased trigger pressure and lower speed with decreased 
trigger pressure.
NOTE:  You might hear a whistling or ringing noise from the 
switch during use. Do not be concerned; this is a normal 
part of the switch function.

DIRECTION OF ROTATION SELECTOR

(FORWARD/REVERSE/CENTER LOCK)

See Figure 3.

The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled 
by a selector located above the switch trigger. With the drill 
held in normal operating position, the direction of rotation 
selector should be positioned to the left of the switch trigger 
for forward drilling. The drilling direction is reversed when 
the selector is to the right of the switch trigger. 

Setting the direction of rotation selector in the

 OFF (center 

lock) position will lock the switch trigger to help reduce the 
possibility of accidental starting when not in use.
