DRILL MODE
(Fig. 8)
Select drill mode for drilling and
other heavy duty applications.
To select drill mode, rotate the
torque adjustment ring until the icon
aligns with the torque indicator and
clicks into position.
TWO-SPEED GEAR BOX
(Fig. 9)
The drill/driver has a two-speed
gear box designed for drilling or
driving at LO or HI speeds. A slide
switch is located on the top of the
drill/driver to select either LO or HI
speed.
When using drill/driver in the
LO speed range, the speed will
decrease and the drill/driver will
have more power and torque.
When using drill/driver in the HI
speed range, the speed will increase
and the drill/driver will have less power and torque.
Use LO speed for high power and torque applications and HI speed for fast
drilling or driving applications. Use LO speed for starting holes without a center
punch, drilling metals or plastic, drilling ceramics, or in applications requiring a
higher torque.
HI speed is better for drilling wood and wood composites and for using abrasive
and polishing accessories.
NOTE:
Never change gears while the tool is running. Failure to obey this caution
could result in serious damage to the drill/driver.
NOTE:
Avoid running the drill/driver at LO speed for extended periods of time.
Running at LO speed under constant use may cause the drill/driver to become
overheated. If this occurs, cool the drill/driver by running it without a load at HI
speed.
