Side Handle (Fig. A)
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury,

operate the tool with the side handle
properly installed. Failure to do so may result in
the side handle slipping during tool operation and
subsequent loss of control. Hold tool with both hands
to maximize control.
Side handle
10
clamps to the front of the gear case and
may be rotated 360° to permit right- or left-hand use. Side
handle must be tightened sufficiently to resist the twisting
action of the tool if the accessory binds or stalls. Be sure to
grip the side handle at the far end to control the tool
during a stall.
Forward/Reverse Control Button (Fig. A)
A forward/reverse control button

determines the
direction of the tool and also serves as a lock-off button.
To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and
depress the for ward/re verse control button on the right side
of the tool.
To select reverse, release the trigger switch and depress the
forward/reverse control button on the left side of the tool.

the off position. When changing the position of the control
button, be sure the trigger is released.
nOTE:
The first time the tool is run after changing the
direction of rotation, you may hear a click on start up. This is
normal and does not indicate a problem.
Torque Adjustment Collar (Fig. C–E)
Your tool has an electronic adjustable torque screwdriver
system for driving and removing a wide array of fasteners.
Circling the torque adjustment collar
5
are numbers, a drill
bit symbol, and in some models, a hammer symbol. These
numbers are used to set the tool to deliver a torque range.
The higher the number on the collar, the higher the torque
and the larger the fastener that can be driven. To select any
of the numbers, rotate until the desired number aligns with
the arrow.
WARNING:
When the torque adjustment collar is
in the drill or hammerdrill positions, the drill will not
clutch. The drill may stall if overloaded, causing a
sudden twist.
