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

013956

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

013968

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.

Installing bit holder (Optional accessory)

013966

Fit the bit holder into the protrusion at the tool foot on

either right or left side and secure it with a screw.

When not using the driver bit, keep it in the bit holders.

Bits 45 mm-long can be kept there.

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.

• When the speed comes down extremely, reduce

the load or stop the tool to avoid the tool damage.

013961

Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip and the

other hand on the bottom of the battery cartridge to

control the twisting action.

Screwdriving operation

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 screw, predrill a pilot hole 2/3

the diameter of the screw. It makes driving easier

and prevents splitting of the workpiece.

Drilling operation

First, turn the adjusting ring so that the pointer points to

the

marking. Then proceed as follows.

Drilling in wood

When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with

wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide

screw makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the

workpiece.
