Kawasaki 840013 Drill User Manual


 
BIT INSERTION
Unplug the drill. Never change bits
on a live drill.
Make sure the bit is undamaged,
sharp and free from wood or metal
shavings. Foreign material on the
bit may keep the chuck from tight-
ening fully. A loose bit may cause
injury.
Push the bit into the chuck as far
as it will go.
Make sure the bit is in the center
of the chuck. If the bit is off-cen-
ter, it will not be held securely and
may fly loose during use causing
serious injury.
Insert the chuck key into one of the three chuck holes. Rotate the chuck key
clockwise to lock the bit in place.
Remove the chuck key.
Always run the drill for one minute before drilling to make
sure the bit is properly seated. If the bit needs to be adjusted, unplug the drill
before touching the bit.
BIT REMOVAL
Unplug the drill.
Insert the chuck key into one of
the three chuck holes. Rotate the
chuck key counterclockwise to
unlock the bit.
Remove the bit.

OPERATING THE ON/OFF SWITCH
Squeeze the trigger switch to turn the tool “ON”. Release the trigger switch to turn
the tool “OFF”.
When drilling for extended periods, the “Lock-On” switch may be used, but do not
use this switch in situations where the drill is likely to bind or kickback. If kickback
does occur, the sudden motion of the tool may make it difficult to release the “Lock-
On” switch and turn the drill off.
SPEED CONTROL ADJUSTING SWITCH
To increase the operating speed of the
drill, turn the variable speed control clock-
wise. To decrease the speed, turn the
variable speed control counterclockwise.
REVERSING SWITCH LEVER
The reversing switch lever reverses the
rotation of the drill bit. It is located just
above the trigger switch. ALWAYS turn the
motor off and let the bit come to a
complete stop before moving the switch.
Move the switch to the right for a forward
rotation of the bit. Move the switch to the
left to put the bit into reverse.
Do not change the direction of a moving bit. Make sure the
bit comes to a complete standstill before moving switch. Changing direction
while the bit is moving can cause damage to the drill.
