OPERATION
1. To turn the drill/driver ON, press the
trigger switch.
2. To turn the drill/driver OFF, release the
trigger switch.
3. The variable-speed trigger switch
delivers higher speed with increased trigger
pressure and lower speed with decreased
trigger pressure.
WARNING:
Allow the motor to
come to a complete stop before setting
the drill/driver down.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
To stop the drill/driver, release the trigger
switch and allow the chuck to come to a
complete stop. The electric brake quickly
stops the chuck from rotating. This feature
engages automatically when you release
the trigger switch.
DIRECTION-OF-ROTATION
SELECTOR (FORWARD/CENTER-
LOCK/REVERSE) (FIG. 6)
The direction of bit rotation is reversible
and is controlled by a selector located
above the trigger switch. With the drill/
driver held in normal operating position:
1. Position the direction-of-rotation
selector to the right of the tool for reverse
rotation.
2. Position the direction-of-rotation
selector to the left of the tool for forward
rotation.
3. Position the direction-of-rotation
selector in the off (center-lock) position to
help reduce the possibility of accidental
starting when not in use.
NOTICE: To prevent gear damage, always
allow the drill/driver to come to a complete
stop before changing the direction of rotation.

TWO-SPEED GEARBOX (FIG. 7)
The drill/driver has a two-speed gearbox for
drilling or driving in low (1) or high (2) speed
ranges. A slide switch is located on the
top of the drill/driver to select either low or
high speed range. The speed range choice
depends on the material and the application.
Use the low speed (1) for high power and
torque applications and high speed (2) for
fast drilling or driving applications.
When using drill/driver in the low speed
range, the speed will decrease and the drill/
driver will have more power and torque. Use
the low speed for starting holes without a
center punch, drilling metals or plastic,
drilling ceramics, or in applications requiring
a higher torque.
High speed is better for drilling wood and
wood composites.
NOTICE:
Never adjust the speed while the tool is
running. Failure to obey this caution could
result in serious damage to the drill/driver.
• Make sure that the two-speed gearbox
switch is fully engaged in the front or the
rear position.
Avoid running the drill/driver at high speed
for extended periods of time. Running at
high speed for an extended period of time
may cause the drill/driver to overheat.
