dual range switch - figure f
The dual range feature of your drill allows you to shift gears for greater versatility.
• To select low speed, high torque setting (position 1), turn tool off and permit to stop.
Slide gear shifter button (4) away from the chuck.
• To select the high speed, low torque setting (position 2), turn tool off and permit to
stop. Slide gear shifter button back toward the chuck.
Note: Do not change gears when tool is running. If you are having trouble changing
gears, make sure that the dual range gear button is either completely pushed
forward or completely pushed back.

:
Make certain the battery pack is removed to prevent tool actuation
before installing or removing accessories.
To insert a drill bit or other accessory:
1. Grasp the chuck (5) and rotate it in the counterclockwise direction, as viewed from
the chuck end.
2. Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck, and tighten securely by
rotating the chuck in the clockwise direction as viewed from the chuck end.
WarNINg
:
Do not attempt to tighten or loosen drill bits (or any other accessory)
by gripping the front part of the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck
and personal injury may occur when changing accessories.
screw driving
• For driving fasteners, the forward/reverse button should be pushed to the left.
• Use reverse (button pushed to the right) for removing fasteners.
Note: When moving from forward to reverse, or vice versa, always release the
trigger switch first.
drilling
• Use sharp drill bits only.
• Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
• Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
• Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
• Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole is started enough to keep
the drill bit from slipping out of it.
• Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep the bit biting
but not so much as to stall the motor or deflect the bit.
• Hold the drill firmly with two hands, one hand on the handle, and the other gripping
the bottom around the battery area or the auxillary handle if provided.
• DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF A STALLED DRILL OFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPT
TO START IT. DAMAGE TO THE DRILL CAN RESULT.
• Minimize stalling on breakthrough by reducing pressure and slowly drilling through the
last part of the hole.
• Keep the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled hole. This will help reduce jamming.
• make sure switch turns drill on and off.
drilling in Wood
Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drill bits used for metal or with spade
bits. These bits should be sharp and should be pulled out frequently when drilling to
clear chips from the flutes.
drilling in metal
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and brass
which should be drilled dry. The cutting lubricants that work best are sulfurized cutting
oil or lard oil.
drilling in masonry
Use carbide tipped masonry bits. Refer to Drilling section. Keep even force on the drill
but not so much that you crack the brittle material. A smooth, even flow of dust indicates
the proper drilling rate.
led Work light
When drill is activated by pulling the trigger switch (1), the integrated LED work light (8)
will automatically illuminate the work area. Note: The work light is for lighting the
immediate work surface and is not intended to be used as a flashlight.
