OPERATION
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
wear proper eye protection marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
When working in dusty situations, wear appro-
priate respiratory protection or use an OSHA
compliant dust extraction solution.
Always remove battery pack before changing
or removing accessories. Only use accessories
specifically recommended for this tool. Others
may be hazardous.
Fuel Gauge
To determine the amount of charge left in the battery,
turn the tool ON. The Fuel Gauge will light up for 2-3
seconds. When less than 10% of charge is left, 1 light
on the fuel gauge will flash 4 times.
To signal the end of charge, 1 light on the fuel gauge
will flash 8 times and the tool will not run. Charge
the battery pack.
If the battery becomes too hot, the fuel gauge lights
will flash in an alternating pattern and the tool will not
run. Allow the battery to cool down.
Installing Bits
Always remove the battery before inserting or remov-
ing bits. Select the proper style and size bit for the
type of screw you are using. This driver is intended
for use with drill and driver bits with a 1/4" hex shank
and ball detent recess.
1. To install the bit, press the bit into the socket until
the collar snaps back and the bit is locked into
place.
2. To remove the bit, pull out the collar, then pull out
the bit.
NOTE: It is not necessary to hold the collar out when
installing and removing bits. The first time the tool
is used, it may be necessary to pull out the collar.
Using the Adjustable Clutch
This tool has an adjustable clutch
for driving different types of
screws into different materials.
When properly adjusted, the
clutch will slip at a preset torque
to prevent driving the screw too
deep and to prevent damage to
the screw or tool.
To adjust the clutch, turn the
clutch adjusting ring so that
the desired setting (1-15) lines
up with the arrow on the motor housing, as shown.
The torque specifications shown here are approximate
values obtained with a fully charged battery pack.

NOTE: Because the settings shown in the table are

the different clutch settings before driving screws
into the workpiece.

Applications
Small screws in softwood.
Medium screws in softwood or
small screws in hardwood.
Large screws in softwoods.
Medium screws in hardwood or
large screws in hardwood with
pilot hole.
Using Control Switch
The control switch may be set to three positions:
forward, reverse and lock. Due to a lockout mecha-
nism, the control switch can only be adjusted when
the ON/OFF switch is not pressed. Always allow the
motor to come to a complete stop before using the
control switch.
Forward -
Push from
RIGHT
1. For forward (clockwise) rotation, push in the con-
trol switch from the right side of the tool. Check
the direction of rotation before use.
2. For reverse (counterclockwise) rotation, push in
the control switch from the left side of the tool.
Check direction of rotation before use.
3. To lock the trigger, push the control switch to the
center position. The trigger will not work while the
control switch is in the center locked position.
Always remove the battery pack before performing
maintenance or changing accessories. Always
lock the trigger or remove the battery pack before
storing the tool and any time the tool is not in use.
Battery Pack Protection
To protect the battery from damage and extend its
life, the tool's intelligent circuit monitors current draw,
temperature, and voltage drops.
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling, and short
circuit situations that cause high current draw, the
tool will vibrate for about 5 seconds, the fuel gauge
will flash, and then the tool will turn OFF. To reset,
release the trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal tem-
perature of the battery could become too high. If this
happens, the fuel gauge will flash and the battery
pack will shut off. Let the battery pack cool and then
continue work.
APPLICATIONS
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
WARNING
check work area for hidden pipes
and wires before drilling or driving screws.
This tool provides a quick, convenient means of drill-
ing small holes and installing and removing screws.
Because of the many screw sizes, types, thread
engagements and materials available, it is difficult to
limit the application of this tool by screw size. How-
ever, for applications in wood, a #6 wood screw with
a full pilot hole is recommended as a practical limit.
Drilling in Wood, Composition Materials and
Plastic
Always use sharp bits. When using twist drill bits, pull
the bit out of the hole frequently to clear chips from
the bit flutes. To reduce the chance of splintering,
back work with a piece of scrap wood. Select low
speeds for plastics with a low melting point.
Driving Screws
Drill a pilot hole when driving screws into thick or
hard materials. Set the clutch adjusting ring to the
proper position and set the speed to low. Use the
proper style and size screwdriver bit for the type of
screw you are using.
