DIRECTION OF ROTATION SELECTOR
(FORWARD/REVERSE/CENTER LOCK)
See Figure 3, page 12.
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled
by a selector located above the switch trigger. With the drill
held in normal operating position, the direction of rotation
selector should be positioned to the left of the switch trigger
for forward drilling. The drilling direction is reversed when
the selector is to the right of the switch trigger.
Setting the direction of rotation selector in the OFF (center
lock) position helps reduce the possibility of accidental start-
ing when not in use.
CAUTION:
To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck to
come to a complete stop before changing the direction
of rotation.
To stop the drill, release the switch trigger and allow the
chuck to come to a complete stop.
NOTE: The drill will not run unless the direction of rotation
selector is pushed fully to the left or right.
Avoid running the drill at low speeds for extended periods
of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may
cause the drill to become overheated. If this occurs, cool the
drill by running it without a load and at full speed.
KEYLESS CHUCK
See Figure 4, page 12.
The drill has a keyless chuck to tighten or release drill bits
in the chuck jaws. The arrows on the chuck indicate which
direction to rotate the chuck body in order to LOCK (tighten)
or UNLOCK (release) the drill bit.
WARNING:
Do not hold the chuck with one hand and use the power
of the drill 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 drill bit. This
could cause an accident resulting in serious personal
injury.
TWO-SPEED GEAR TRAIN (HI-LO)
See Figure 5, page 12.
The drill has a two-speed gear train designed for drilling or
driving at LO (1) or HI (2) speeds. A slide switch is located on
top of the drill to select either LO (1) or HI (2) speed. When
using drill in the LO (1) speed range, speed will decrease
and unit will have more power and torque. When using drill
in the HI (2) speed range, speed will increase and unit will
have less power and torque. Use LO (1) speed for high power
and torque applications and HI (2) speed for fast drilling or
driving applications.

BIT STORAGE
See Figure 7, page 13.
When not in use, bits provided with the drill can be placed
in the storage area located on the base of the drill.
MAG TRAY
See Figure 7, page 13.
The magnetic tray conveniently stores screws or other small
parts.
INSTALLING BITS
See Figures 8 - 9, page 13.
 Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation
selector in the center position.
 Open or close the chuck jaws to a point where the opening
is slightly larger than the bit size you intend to use. Also,
raise the front of the drill slightly to keep the bit from falling
out of the chuck jaws.
 Insert the drill bit.
WARNING:
Make sure to insert the drill bit straight into the chuck
jaws. Do not insert the drill bit into the chuck jaws at an
angle then tighten, as shown in figure 9. This could cause
the drill bit to be thrown from the drill, resulting in possible
serious personal injury or damage to the chuck.
 Tighten the chuck jaws securely on the bit.
NOTE: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the
arrow marked LOCK to close the chuck jaws. Do not use
a wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.
