1. Lock the trigger in the OFF position as
previously described.
2. Grasp the black sleeve of the chuck with one
hand and use the other hand to secure the
tool. Rotate the sleeve counterclockwise far
enough to accept the desired accessory.
3. Insert the accessory about 19 mm (3/4") into the
chuck and tighten securely by rotating the chuck
sleeve clockwise with one hand while holding
the tool with the other. Your tool is equipped
with an automatic spindle lock mechanism. This
allows you to open and close the chuck with
one hand.
To release the accessory, repeat step 2 above.
WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten
drill bits (or any other accessory) by
gripping the front part of the chuck
and turning the tool on. Damage to the
chuck and personal injury may result.
Always lock off trigger switch when
changing acces sories.
Be sure to tighten chuck with one hand on the chuck
sleeve and one hand holding the tool for maximum
tightness.
CHUCK REMOVAL (FIG. 6)
Turn the adjustment collar to the "drill" position and
gear shifter to position 1 (low speed). Tighten the
chuck around the shorter end of a hex key (not
supplied) of 6.35 mm (1/4") or greater size. Using
a wooden mallet or similar object, strike the longer
end in the clockwise direction, as shown. This will
loosen the screw inside the chuck.
Open chuck jaws fully, insert screwdriver (or
Torx tool if required) into front of chuck between
jaws to engage screw head. Remove screw by
turning clockwise (left-hand-thread). Place hex
key in chuck and tighten, as shown in Figure 6.
Using a wooden mallet or similar object, strike key
sharply in the counterclockwise direction. This will
loosen the chuck so that it can be unscrewed by
hand.
CHUCK INSTALLATION (FIG. 7)
Screw the chuck on by hand as far as it will go
and insert screw (left-hand thread). Tighten screw
securely. Tighten the chuck around the shorter end
of a 6.35 mm (1/4") or larger hex key (not supplied)
strike the longer end in the clockwise direction
with a wooden mallet, as shown. Tighten the
screw once again by turning in a counterclockwise
direction.

Drill Operation
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious personal injury, turn tool off
and disconnect tool from power source
before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or
accessories.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
personal injury, ALWAYS ensure
workpiece is anchored or clamped
firmly. If drilling thin material, use
a wood "back-up" block to prevent
damage to the material.
Turn the collar to the drill bit symbol for drilling.
Select the desired speed/torque range using the
gear shifter to match the speed and torque to the
planned operation.
1. Use sharp drill bits only. For WOOD, use twist
drill bits, spade bits, or hole saws. For METAL,
use high-speed steel (HHS) twist drill bits or
hole saws.
2. Always apply pressure in a straight line with
the bit. Use enough pressure to keep drill
biting, but do not push hard enough to stall the
motor or deflect the bit.
3. Hold tool firmly with both hands to control the
twisting action of the drill.
WARNING: The drill may stall if
overloaded causing a sudden twist.
Always expect the stall. Grip the drill
firmly with both hands to control the
twisting action and avoid injury.
4. IF DRILL STALLS, it is usually because
it is being overloaded or improperly used.
RELEASE TRIGGER IMMEDIATELY, remove
drill bit from work, and determine cause of
stalling. DO NOT CLICK TRIGGER ON
AND OFF IN AN ATTEMPT TO START
A STALLED DRILL — THIS CAN DAMAGE
THE DRILL.
5. To minimize stalling or breaking through the
material, reduce pressure on drill and ease the
bit through the last fractional part of the hole.
6. Keep the motor running when pulling the
bit back out of a drilled hole. This will help
prevent jamming.
7. With variable speed drills there is no need
to center punch the point to be drilled. Use
a slow speed to start the hole and accelerate
by squeezing the trigger harder when the hole
is deep enough to drill without the bit skipping
out.
