OPERATION
WARNING:
Always unplug the tool when installing or removing bits,
adjusting settings, or when the tool is not in use. Failure
to unplug the tool may result in accidental starting and
serious personal injury.
BIT STORAGE
See Figure 3, page 10.
When not in use, bits provided with the drill can be placed
in the storage area located on the handle of the drill.
INSTALLING BITS
See Figure 4 - 5, page 10.
Unplug the drill.
Open or close the chuck jaws to a point where the open-
ing is slightly larger than the bit size you intend to use.
Also, raise the front of the drill slightly to keep the bit from
falling out of the chuck jaws.
Insert the drill bit.
WARNING:
Make sure to insert the drill bit straight into the chuck
jaws. Do not insert the drill bit into the chuck jaws at
an angle then tighten, as shown in figure 5. This could
cause the drill bit to be thrown from the drill, resulting in
possible serious personal injury or damage to the chuck.
Tighten the chuck jaws securely on the bit.
NOTE:
Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the
arrow marked
LOCK
to close the chuck jaws. Do not use
a wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.
REMOVING BITS

marked
UNLOCK
to open the chuck jaws. Do not use a
wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.
Remove the drill bit.
LOCK-ON BUTTON

WARNING:
Before connecting the drill to a power supply source,
always check to be sure it is not in lock-on position (de-
press and release the switch trigger). Failure to ensure
that it is not locked-on could result in accidental starting
of the drill resulting in possible serious injury. Do not lock
the switch trigger in applications where the drill may need
to be suddenly stopped.

position before connecting it to a power
supply.
Check the direction of rotation selector for the correct
setting (forward or reverse).
Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or with clamps
to keep it from turning as the drill bit rotates.
Plug the drill into power supply. Hold the drill firmly and
place the bit at the point to be drilled.
Depress the switch trigger to start the drill.
Move the drill bit into the workpiece, applying only enough
pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force the drill or
apply side pressure to elongate a hole. Let the tool do
the work.
