6.2 Adjusting the speed (Fig. 11/Item 5)

●You can infinitely vary the speed whilst using the tool.
- Select the speed by applying a greater or lesser pressure to the ON/OFF switch (5).
- Select the correct speed: The most suitable speed depends on the workpiece, the type of use and the drill bit used.
●Low pressure on the ON/OFF switch (5): Lower speed (suitable for: small screws and soft materials)
●Greater pressure on the ON/OFF switch (5): Higher speed (suitable for large/long screws and hard materials)

Tip: Start drilling holes at low speed. Then increase the speed in stages.

Benefits:

●The drill bit is easier to control when starting the hole and will not slide away.
- You avoid drilling messy holes (for example in tiles).

6.3 Preselecting the speed (Fig. 11/Item 6)

●The speed setting ring (6) enables you to define the maximum speed. The ON/OFF switch (5) can only be pressed to the defined maximum speed setting.
- Set the speed using the setting ring (6) on the ON/OFF switch (5).
- Do not attempt to make this setting whilst the drill is in use.
