Variable Speed Switch (Fig. C)
To turn the tool on. squeeze the trigger switch (1). To turn the tool off, release the trigger
switch. Your tool is equipped with a brake. The chuck will stop as soon as the trigger
switch is fully released. The variable speed switch enables you to start the application at
a slow speed. The farther you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool will operate. For
maximum tool life, use variable speed only for starting holes or fasteners.
NOTE:
Continuous use in variable speed range is not recom- mended. It may damage
the switch and should be avoided.
Forward/Reverse Switch (Fig. C)
A forward/reverse slider(2) determines the direction the chuck will spin and also serves
as a lock off button. The center posi- tion of the control button locks the tool in the off
position.
When changing the position of the control button, be sure the trigger is released.
NOTE:
The rst time the tool is run after changing the direction of rotation, you may
hear a dick on start up. This is normal and does not indicate a problem.
