Fitting a drill or driver bit
WARNING: Do Not fit any attachment with a maximum speed lower than the no load speed
of the machine
NOTE: Screwdriver bits can also be fitted directly into the Magnetic 6mm/¼" Hex Drive (10)
when the chuck is removed
1. Rotate the Chuck (1) collar clockwise and insert the bit into the chuck
2. Rotate the chuck collar anti-clockwise to secure the drill bit
NOTE: Do not run the tool whilst tightening or releasing the chuck. Ideally select the locked
middle position of the Forward/Reverse Selector (5)
3. When the bit is held tightly, test that it is positioned centrally by running the tool. The bit
should rotate smoothly without uneven rotation. If the bit is not central, release the chuck,
reposition the bit and retighten the chuck
Direction control
•
The rotation direction can be set using the Forward/Reverse Selector (5)
•
To rotate the chuck clockwise, push the forward/reverse selector to the left
•
To rotate the chuck anti-clockwise, push the forward/reverse selector to the right
•
When the forward/reverse selector is in the central position, the tool is locked
•
Do not attempt to move the forward/reverse selector when the tool is running
Speed control
•
This drill driver has a 2-speed gearbox:
- 1st gear range: 0 – 400min-1
- 2nd gear range: 0 – 1300min-1
•
Use the Speed Selector (4) to set the gear. Forward for first gear, back for second gear
NOTE: The first gear would be used normally for driving screws for example and offers higher
torque and superior control at low rpm. The second gear would normally be used exclusively
for drilling
Torque control
•
This drill driver is fitted with torque control, which limits the torque output of the drill,
enabling screws to be driven without the risk of damage
•
There are 17 torque settings and one drill setting. The lower the number, the lower the
torque
•
To adjust the torque, select the first gear and rotate the Torque Adjustment Collar (3) until
the setting you require is aligned with the arrow on the drill driver housing
•
Check that the torque setting is correct by practising first on a piece of scrap material
•
For drilling select the correct gear, rotate the clutch ring to the drill symbol. This will lock
the control for maximum torque
Warning: The drill driver can be fitted with a drive adaptor for use with driving nuts and bolts.
Do not attempt to use this tool in the drill position when doing so. Use the 17 torque settings

and the first gear to allow the torque clutch to protect the tool from excessive load. The use of
a wrench to loosen or tighten the nut/bolt is recommended. This allows the tool to speed up
the operation, without risk of damage, when high torque is required at the beginning or end
of the operation
Switching on
•
To start the tool, squeeze the Trigger Switch (8). The LED Guide Light (9) will illuminate
•
Further pressure on the trigger will increase the running speed of the tool
NOTE: It is possible the drill driver may switch off during heavy use due to thermal protection
of the battery and internal components. This may prevent the tool being used again for a short
period of time and does not represent a fault
Drilling guidance
•
Use sharp drill bits and ensure that drill bits are suitable for the material being drilled
•
Begin drilling at slow speeds by partially squeezing the trigger switch
•
Reduce pressure on the trigger when the drill bit is about to break through to the other
side of material
•
To avoid splintering on breakthrough, either clamp a piece of scrap wood to the back
of the workpiece or continue the hole from the back of the wood when the drill bit first
breaks through
Drilling metal
•
Support thin material with a piece of scrap wood
•
Mark the intended hole position using a hammer and centre punch
•
Use only HSS (high speed steel) drill bits or others recommended for drilling into metal
•
Prior to drilling large holes, use a smaller bit to drill a pilot hole
•
Use a suitable lubricant to prolong the service life of the drill bit, and produce good results
Maintenance
Cleaning
•
Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear
quickly and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of your machine with a
soft brush or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the
ventilation holes
Storage
•
Store this tool and accessories in its case if supplied or a dry, secure place out of the
reach of children
Disposal
•
Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic equipment, with
household waste
•
Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct way to dispose
of tools
This tool is manufactured using class leading components and makes use of the latest in
intelligent circuitry that protects the tool and its components. In normal use it should provide
a long working life.
