OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
KEYLESS CHUCK (Fig. 5)
The drill/driver has a keyless chuck (I) to tighten or
release drill bits in the chuck jaws. The arrows on the
chuck indicate the direction in which to rotate the chuck
body in order to GRIP (tighten). Rotate the chuck in the
opposite direction to OPEN (release).
WARNING: Do not hold the chuck body with one hand
and use the power of the drill/driver to tighten the chuck
jaws on the drill bit. The chuck body could slip in your
hand, or your hand could slip and come in contact with
the rotating bit. This could cause an accident resulting in
serious personal injury.
ADJUSTABLE TORQUE CLUTCH (Fig. 6)
The torque clutch can be adjusted to 23 driving settings
and 1 drilling setting. The higher the torque setting, the
more force the drill/driver produces to turn an object.
When using the drill/driver for different driving
applications, it is necessary to increase or decrease the
torque to help prevent the possibility of damaging screw
heads, threads, workpiece, etc.
Adjust the torque by rotating the torque-adjustment ring (C).
The proper setting depends on the job and the type of bit,
fastener, and material you will be using. In general, use
greater torque for larger screws. If the torque is too high,
the screws may be damaged or broken. For delicate
operations, such as removing a partially stripped screw,
use a low torque setting. For operations such as driving
into hardwood, use a higher torque setting.
CAUTION: Do not change the torque setting when the
tool is running.
DRILL MODE (Fig. 7)
Select the drill mode for drilling and other heavy-duty
applications. To select the drill mode, rotate the torque-
adjustment ring ( C ) until the drill icon aligns with the
torque indicator and clicks into position.
