SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to drill safety rules. If you use this power tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury.

1. Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss

of control can cause personal injury.

2. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces

when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.

Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

3. Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure

no one is below when using the tool in high locations.

4. Hold the tool firmly.

5. Keep hands away from rotating parts.

6. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool

only when hand-held.

7. Do not touch the drill bit or the workpiece immedi-

ately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.

8. Some material contains chemicals which may be

toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY CARTRIDGE

1. Before using battery cartridge, read all instruc-

tions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.

2. Do not disassemble battery cartridge.

3. If operating time has become excessively shorter,

stop operating immediately. It may result in a risk of overheating, possible burns and even an explosion.

4. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them out

with clear water and seek medical attention right away. It may result in loss of your eyesight.

5. Do not short the battery cartridge:

(1) Do not touch the terminals with any conduc-

tive material.

(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a container

with other metal objects such as nails, coins, etc.

(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water or

rain.

A battery short can cause a large current flow, overheating, possible burns and even a breakdown.

6. Do not store the tool and battery cartridge in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 50°C (122°F).

7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery cartridge can explode in a fire.

8. Be careful not to drop or strike battery.

Tips for maintaining maximum battery life

1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely discharged. Always stop tool operation and charge the battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.

2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge. Overcharging shortens the battery service life.

3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at 10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F). Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-

tery cartridge is removed before adjusting or checking function on the tool.

Installing or removing battery cartridge (Fig. 1)

• Always switch off the tool before insertion or removal of

the battery cartridge.

• To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from the

tool while sliding the button on the side of the cartridge.

• To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the

battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in place with a little click. If you can see the red part on the upper side of the button, it is not locked completely. Insert it fully until the red part cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone around you.

• Do not use force when inserting the battery cartridge. If

the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly.

Switch action (Fig. 2)

CAUTION:

• Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool,

always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position when

released. To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.

Lighting up the front lamp (Fig. 3)

CAUTION:

• Do not look in the light or see the source of light

directly.

Pull the switch trigger to light up the lamp. The lamp keeps on lighting while the switch trigger is being pulled. The lamp goes out 10 -15 seconds after releasing the trigger.

NOTE:

• Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of lamp. Be careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or it may lower the illumination.

Reversing switch action (Fig. 4)

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of rotation. Depress the reversing switch lever from the A side for clockwise rotation or from the B side for counterclockwise rotation.

When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral position, the switch trigger cannot be pulled.

CAUTION:

• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.

• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool.

• When not operating the tool, always set the reversing switch lever to the neutral position.

Speed change (Fig. 5)

To change the speed, first switch off the tool and then slide the speed change lever to the “2” side for high speed or “1” side for low speed. Be sure that the speed change lever is set to the correct position before operation. Use the right speed for your job.

CAUTION:

• Always set the speed change lever fully to the correct position. If you operate the tool with the speed change lever positioned halfway between the “1” side and “2” side, the tool may be damaged.

• Do not use the speed change lever while the tool is running. The tool may be damaged.

Adjusting the fastening torque (Fig. 6)

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 17 steps by turning the adjusting ring so that its graduations are aligned with the pointer on the tool body. The fastening torque is minimum when the number 1 is aligned with the pointer, and maximum when the marking is aligned with the pointer.

The clutch will slip at various torque levels when set at the number 1 to 16. The clutch is designed not to slip at the marking.

Before actual operation, drive a trial screw into your material or a piece of duplicate material to determine which torque level is required for a particular application.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work on the tool.

Installing or removing driver bit or drill bit (Fig. 7)

Turn the sleeve counterclockwise to open the chuck jaws. Place the bit in the chuck as far as it will go. Turn the sleeve clockwise to tighten the chuck.

To remove the bit, turn the sleeve counterclockwise.

Hook (Fig. 8)

The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool. This can be installed on either side of the tool.

To install the hook, insert it into a groove in the tool housing on either side and then secure it with a screw. To remove, loosen the screw and then take it out.

OPERATION

CAUTION:

• Always insert the battery cartridge all the way until it locks in place. If you can see the red part on the upper side of the button, it is not locked completely. Insert it fully until the red part cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone around you.

Screwdriving operation (Fig. 9)

CAUTION:

• Adjust the adjusting ring to the proper torque level for your work.

Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger as soon as the clutch cuts in.

CAUTION:

• Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.

NOTE:

• When driving wood screws, predrill pilot holes to make driving easier and to prevent splitting of the workpiece. See the chart.
