Side handle (H) 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.
If model is not equipped with side handle, grip drill with one hand on
the handle and one hand on the battery pack.
NOTE: Side handle comes equipped on models DCD940, DCD950,
DCD960 and DCD970.
Forward/Reverse Control Button (Fig. 2)
A forward/reverse control button (B) 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 center position 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 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.

worklight will be activated when the trigger switch is squeezed.
NOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface and
is not intended to be used as a flashlight.
