Item 68857
operating drill / driver
1. Insert the fully charged Battery Pack (11)
into the base of the Drill Driver, making sure
that it clicks into place securely. Be sure the
Battery Pack is securely seated into the Drill
Handle so it does not fall off during use.
2. Slide the Direction Switch (which should initially
be centered in the “lock” position) to the right for
forward drilling/fastening, or to the left for reversing
the operation. Use the “reverse” setting only to
remove screws or to release a jammed drill bit.
notice: do not change direction of rotation
while chuck is rotating.
Wait until Chuck has come
to a complete stop before changing direction.
3. If using the Drill to insert or remove screws, position
the driver tip in the item to insert or remove.
4. If drilling a hole, hold the Drill above the area to drill.
5. Press the Trigger to start the drill.
note:
The built-in
worklight will also activate once the Switch is
pressed and turn off once Switch is released.
6. When inserting or removing a screw or bolt, use
slight pressure at first to keep the screw driver bit in
the head of the screw or bolt and cause the screw
or bolt to thread into or unthread from the material.
7. When drilling a hole, let the Drill do the work,
using only enough pressure to follow the
drill as it cuts the hole in the material.
8. When drilling a hard, smooth surface, use
a center punch (not included) to mark the
desired hole. This will prevent the drill bit
from slipping as the hole is started.
Wood drilling tips
a. For best performance, use high speed
drill bits for wood drilling and turn the
torque setting to the drill icon.
b. Start wood drilling at very low
speed to keep the bit from slipping.
Increase speed as drill bit bites into wood.
c. When drilling through holes, place a block
or wood behind the workpiece to prevent
ragged edges on the back side of the hole.
metal drilling tips
a. For best performance, use high speed
drill bits for metal or steel drilling and turn
the torque setting to the drill icon.
b. Start wood drilling at very low
speed to keep the bit from slipping.
Maintain the speed and pressure, allowing
for cutting without overheating the bit.
notice:
Applying too much pressure will
overheat Drill Driver, wear out the bearings, bend
or burn bits, and produce irregular shaped holes.
c. When drilling large holes in metal surfaces, use a
small drill bit at first. Then finish with a larger drill
bit. Be sure to lubricate the bit with oil to improve
the drilling action and help increase bit life.
9. When finished using the Drill, release the
Trigger and center the Direction Switch to lock
the trigger mechanism as a safety measure.
10. Remove the Battery Pack.
11. Clean then store the Drill indoors
and out of children’s reach.
