Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1.
Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the
battery cartridge when you notice less tool
power.
2.
Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3.
Charge
the
battery
temperature at 10°C – 40°C (50°F – 104°F). Let a
hot battery cartridge cool down before charging
it.
4.
Charge the battery cartridge once in every six
months if you do not use it for a long period of
time.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge (Fig. 1)
CAUTION:
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge.
• Hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly when
installing or removing battery cartridge. Failure to
hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly may cause
them to slip off your hands and result in damage to the
tool and battery cartridge and a personal injury.
To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it
into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with a
little click. If you can see the red indicator on the upper
side of the button, it is not locked completely.
CAUTION:
• Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red
indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall
out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone
around you.
• Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the
cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted
correctly.
Switch action (Fig. 2)
CAUTION:
• Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when
released.

• Switch can be locked in "ON" position for ease of
operator comfort during extended use. Apply caution
when locking tool in "ON" position and maintain firm
grasp on tool.
To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool speed
is increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger.
Release the switch trigger to stop.
For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger, push in
the lock button and then release the trigger.
To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch
trigger fully, and then release it.
NOTE:
• Even with the switch on and motor running, the bit does
not rotate. Push the tool forward to engage the clutch.
• The tool automatically stops if the motor keeps rotating
for about 6 minutes.
Push drive mode (Fig. 3)
This tool has push drive mode. In this mode, the tool cuts
off power to the motor to save the battery power at idle.
To select push drive mode, pull the trigger slightly, then
release it and quickly press the button. The mode
indicator will then light up.
Once push drive is activated, pull the switch trigger and
then push the lock button. Apply pressure to the bit and
the motor will start rotating. Further pressure engages
the clutch and the bit will start rotating. In push drive
mode, the motor and the driver bit will only rotate by
applying pressure.
NOTE:
• If the tool does not run for about 8 hours in push drive
mode with the trigger locked on, tool is shutdown. In
such a case, release and pull the trigger again for
