To obtain the best life for the battery
For battery storage and when the drill is not being used, it is
advised to charge the battery to approximately half charge.
Leaving the battery in the fully charged condition can
shorten the cell life.
Short charging is acceptable with these cells.
Prevent constant overloading of the drill.
Avoid allowing lose items like screws or nails etc. to be
stored with battery packs as these or similar items can
short battery packs and cause a fire or explosion.
Always unplug the charger when not in use and store in
a dry secure place.
Avoid charging, using or storing your battery in
temperatures below 0ºC and above 40ºC.
Using the drill
Use the forward/reverse switch
(4) to select the direction of
rotation, then pull the trigger
(3). This trigger switch is an
electronic variable speed control
which enables the user to vary
the speed continuously. The
speed varies according to how far
the trigger switch is depressed,
the further it is depressed the
faster the chuck will rotate and the
lighter it is depressed, the slower
it will rotate.
To stop the drill, release the
trigger switch.
Note.
You can only change the
direction of rotation of the drill
using the forward/reverse switch
when the trigger is NOT depressed.
