2 Speed gearbox
The 2 speed gearbox allows
you to select a gear with the
optimum speed and torque to
suit the application.
To select the first gear (low
speed, high torque setting), turn
the tool off and wait until it stops.
Push the gear selector (5) back, towards the chuck, so that
“LOW” is displayed.
Note. Use the first gear for
high torque applications such as
driving screws into decking.
To select the second gear (high
speed, low torque setting), turn
the tool off and wait until it stops.
Slide the gear selector (5) away
from the chuck so that “HIGH” is
displayed.
Note. Use the second gear for high speed applications such
as driving screws into drywalls
CAUTION. Do not change gears when the tool is running.
Variable speed
The variable speed feature
enables you to select the best
speed for a particular application.
The farther you squeeze the
trigger, the faster the tool will
operate.
Use lower speeds when starting
the driving process or when removing screws or other
fasteners as it delivers higher torque and helps overcome
initial resistance.
Note. Do not continuously operate the drill at different
speeds. It may damage the switch.
Removing the
adjustment collar and
nose cone assembly
WARNING. Ensure that the tool
is switched off and the battery
is removed before changing
accessories or carrying out other
adjustment or maintenance
procedures.
Turn the locking collar (4)
clockwise (viewed from the front)
until it reaches a stop.
Ensure that the marker opening
on the locking collar (4) aligns
with the marker line on the
adjustment collar (3).
Pull out the adjustment collar (3) and nose cone (1).
