Low Battery Warning
When in spotlight mode and the battery is nearing
complete discharge, the spotlight will flash twice and then
dim. After two minutes, the battery will be completely
discharged and the drill will immediately shut down. At this
point, replace with a fresh battery.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, always have a
back-up battery or secondary lighting available if the
situation warrants it.
Performing an Application (Fig. A)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal
injury, ALWAYS ensure workpiece is anchored or
clamped firmly.
WARNING: Always wait until the motor has come to
a complete standstill before changing the direction
of rotation.
Prior to performing work:
•
Set the speed selector

•
Install the appropriate bit or accessory into the
chuck. Refer to Installing a Bit or Accessory into a
Keyless Chuck.

Screwdriving
Your tool has a clutch with adjustable torque for driving
and removing a wide array of fastener shapes and sizes. The
numbers 1–15 on the mode selection collar
set a torque range for screwdriving. The higher the number
on the collar, the higher the torque and the larger the
fastener which can be driven.
1. Turn the mode selection collar
desired position. Refer to Mode Selection.
2. Pull the trigger switch applying pressure in a straight
line with the bit until the fastener is seated at the
desired depth in the workpiece.
Recommendations for screwdriving
•
Start with lower torque settings, then advance to higher
torque settings to avoid damage to the workpiece
or fastener.
•
Make some practice runs in scrap or on unseen areas of
the workpiece to determine the proper position of the
mode selection collar.
Drilling
iMPORTAnT: For MASONRY, such as brick, cement, cinder
block, etc., use carbide-tipped masonry bits.

Refer to Mode Selection.
2. Place drill bit in contact with the workpiece.

•
Large holes (5/16" to 1/2" [7.9 mm to 12.7 mm]) in steel
can be made easier if a pilot hole (5/32" to 3/16" [4 mm
to 4.8 mm]) is drilled first.
•
If drilling thin material or material that is prone to
splinter, use a wood "back-up" block to prevent damage
to the workpiece.
