ADJUSTABLE CLUTCH
Your tool features 11 clutch settings. Output
torque will increase as the clutch ring, is
rotated from 1 to 10. The drill “ ” position
will lock up the clutch to permit drilling and
driving heavyduty work, and also enables bits
to be changed quickly and easily in the keyless
chuck (Fig. 3).
BRAKE
When the trigger switch is released it activates
the brake to stop the chuck quickly. This is
especially useful in the repetitive driving and
removal of screws.
FUEL GAUGE
Your tool is equipped with a fuel gauge that
alerts you when the battery capacity is getting
low. When the battery capacity reaches 30%
or less a red LED illuminates indicating the
battery will require charging (Fig. 5).

You will extend the life of your bits and do
neater work if you always put the bit in
contact with the work before pulling the
trigger. During the operation, hold the tool
firmly and exert light, steady pressure. Too
much pressure at low speed will stall the tool.
Too little pressure will keep the bit from
cutting and cause excess friction by sliding
over the surface. This can be damaging to
both tool and bit.
DRILLING WITH VARIABLE SPEED
The trigger controlled variable speed feature
will eliminate the need for center punches in
hard materials. The variable speed trigger
allows you to slowly increase RPM. By using
a slow starting speed, you are able to keep
the bit from “wandering”. You can increase
the speed as the bit “bites” into the work by
squeezing the trigger.
DRIVING WITH VARIABLE SPEED
Variable speed drills will double as a power
screwdriver by using a screwdriver bit in the
drill mode. The technique is to start slowly,
increasing the speed as the screw runs
down. Set the screw snugly by slowing to a
stop. Prior to driving screws, pilot and
clearance holes should be drilled.
