REVERSIBLE
See Figure 2.
This tool is reversible. The direction of rotation is controlled
by a selector located above the switch trigger. With the drill
held in normal operating position, the direction of rotation
selector should be positioned to the left of the switch for
drilling. The drilling direction is reversed when the selector is
to the right of the switch. When the selector is in center
position, the switch trigger is locked.
CAUTION:
To prevent gear damage, always allow chuck to come
to a complete stop before changing the direction of
rotation.
To stop, release switch trigger and allow the chuck to
come to a complete stop.
WARNING:
Battery tools are always in operating condition. There-
fore, switch should always be locked when not in use
or when carrying at your side.
TWO SPEED GEAR TRAIN
See Figure 3.
Your drill has a two-speed gear train designed for drilling or
driving at LO (1) or HI (2) speeds. A slide switch is located
on top of your drill to select either LO (1) or HI (2) speed.
When using drill in the LO (1) speed range, speed will
decrease and unit will have more power and torque. When
using drill in the HI (2) speed range, speed will increase and
unit will have less power and torque. Use LO (1) speed for
high power and torque applications and HI (2) speed for fast
drilling or driving applications.
KEYLESS CHUCK
See Figure 3.
A keyless chuck has been provided with your drill to allow for
easy installation and removal of bits. As the name implies,
you can hand tighten or release drill bits in the chuck jaws.
Grasp and hold the collar of the chuck with one hand. Rotate
the chuck body with your other hand. The arrows on the
chuck indicate which direction to rotate the chuck body in
order to GRIP (tighten) or RELEASE (unlock) the drill bit.

sonal injury.
