VIII - Operation
lED WoRK AREA lIGHt
The drill has 3 LED lights (7) to illuminate the work
area and improve vision when drilling in areas with
insufficient light. To turn the LED lights on and off
depress the LED light switch (8).
REvERsING
The extreme position of lever (6) to the right
(viewed from the rear) is equivalent to anti-clock-
wise rotation, the extreme position to the left - to
clockwise rotation. When the ON/OFF switch (5)
is depressed lever (6) can not be actuated.
CAUtIoN:
Reversing can be per-
formed only when the spindle is not rotating!
Drilling and tightening screws are performed with
lever in extreme position to the right. Removal of
screws is performed with lever in extreme position
to the left.
sWItCHING oN - sWItCHING off
Switching on: press ON/OFF switch (5).
Switching off: release ON/OFF switch (5).
The power tool is equipped with a brake. The spin-
dle stops rotating immediately after releasing the
switch lever.

sults in low rotation speed, further pressing the
switch results in smooth increase of the rpm to
maximum upon reaching the extreme position.
toRQUE ADJUstmENt
By rotating the torque adjustment collar (2) behind
the chuck, it is possible to adjust the torque to
each of 15 settings.
The range of 15 torque settings allows better con-
trol when using the drill as a screwdriver as it pre-
vents over-tightening of the screws.
The numbers circling the collar are used to indi-
cate the level of torque. The larger the number on
the collar, the higher the torque. To select any of
the numbers, rotate the collar (2) until the desired
number aligns with the arrow head indicator on
the housing.

The two-speed selector switch (3) enables you
to select the appropriate gear with the optimum
speed and torque to suit the application.
CAUtIoN:
When changing the gear
selector ensure the drill is not operating.
1. To select the low gear (low speed, high torque
setting), push the gear selector (3) forward, to-
wards the chuck. The digit 1 on the switch will
be displayed.
2. To select the high gear (high speed, low torque
setting), push the gear selector (3) back, away
from the chuck. The digit 2 on the switch will be
displayed.
INsERtING AND REmovING bIts
CAUtIoN:
To avoid unintentional start-
ing we recommend removing the battery pack
out of the tool.
The drill is fitted with auto spindle lock which means
if you try and rotate the chuck by hand the spindle
of the drill will automatically lock. This means you
only need to grasp the chuck and rotate the chuck
housing to remove or fit accessories.
This drill is equipped with a keyless chuck, hence
a chuck key is not needed to secure a bit in the
drill. Always set the forward/reverse switch (6) to
the locked (neutral) position when installing and
removing bits.
1. Open the chuck jaws by firmly holding the
chuck housing and rotating the housing in an
anti-clockwise direction. Open the jaws suffi
-
ciently so as to fit the desired accessory. 9
2. Ensure the accessory is fully inserted, so that
the jaws of the chuck grip onto the flat section
of the accessory.
3. To firmly clamp the accessory in the chuck,
grasp the chuck housing and rotate the chuck
housing in a clockwise direction. Ensure the bit
is retained firmly or damage to the chuck jaws
can result.
4. To remove the accessory, open the chuck jaws
by rotating the housing in an anti-clockwise di-
rection.
DRIllING
Drilling metal
▪ For maximum performance, use high speed
steel bits for metal or steel drilling.
▪ Ensure that the torque adjustment collar (2) is at
position “drill bit”.
▪ Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the
bit from slipping off the starting point.
▪ Always clamp sheet metal.
▪ Support thin metal with a block of wood to avoid
distorting it.
▪ Use a punch to mark the centre of the hole.
▪ Use a suitable lubricant for the material you are
working on.
material
lubricant
Steel
Oil
Aluminium
Turpentine or paraffin
Brass, copper or
cast iron
Do not lubricate
Drilling plastics and plastic coated chipboard
▪ Use high speed drill bits.
▪ Refer to “Drilling wood” below.
Drilling wood
▪ For maximum performance, use high speed
steel bits for wood drilling.
▪ Ensure that the torque adjustment collar (2) is at
position “drill bit”.
▪ Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the
bit from slipping off the starting point. Increase
the speed as the drill bites into the material.
▪ When drilling through holes, place a block of
wood behind the work piece to prevent rag-
ged or splintered edges on the back side of the
hole.
All drilling operations
▪ Use only sharp drill bits.
▪ Mark off the centre of the hole using a centre
punch or nail.
sCREWING / UNsCREWING
Select the appropriate torque by placing one of the
numbers, marked on the torque adjustment collar
(2), against the arrow on the tool body.
Insert the necessary bit.
CAUtIoN:
Over-tightening can result in
the screw breaking or damage to the end of the
driver bit.
