LED Work area light
The drill has five LED lights (14) to illuminate the work
area and improve vision when drilling in areas with
insufficient light.
To turn the LED lights on depress the LED light switch (13).
To turn the LED lights off repress the LED light switch (13).
Trigger Switch
To start the drill, depress
the trigger switch.
Use the forward/reverse
control (4) to select the
direction of rotation, then
squeeze the trigger switch
(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. The switch is equipped with a
brake, the chuck will stop as soon as the trigger switch is
fully released.
To stop the drill, release the trigger switch.
Forward/Reverse control
The forward/reverse control
(4) allows you to change the
direction of the tool while the
variable speed trigger is not
depressed.
To select forward rotation
depress the control (4) toward
the left side of the tool. To
select reverse depress the
control (4) to the right side of
the tool.
Drilling uses the forward mode.
The reverse mode is intended for the removal of screws.
The centre position of the control button locks the tool in the
off position.
Variable speed
The variable speed feature is particularly useful when
driving screws.
It also enables you to select the best speed for a particular
application. The farther you squeeze the trigger, the faster
the tool will operate.
Use lower speeds for starting holes without a centre
punch, drilling metals or plastic, driving screws and drilling
ceramics, or in any application requiring high torque. Higher
speeds are better drilling in wood, wood compositions and
for using abrasive and polishing accessories. For maximum
tool life, use variable speed only for starting holes or
fasteners.
Note. It is best to use the variable speed feature for a short
time only. Do not continuously operate the drill in variable
speed mode this may damage the switch.
Drilling Positions
This symbol indicates the DRILL POSITION. Use this
mode for high speed drilling (Wood, Aluminium, and
Steel) and the clutch will be locked.
This symbol indicates the HAMMER POSITION. Use
this mode to select hammer action. For best results
in hammer mode, use set the gear selector (9) to
Position 3 (high speed).
