INTENDED USE

The machine is intended for driving in and loosening screws as well as for drilling in wood, metal and plastic.

The battery charger supplied is matched to the Li-Ion battery installed in the machine. Do not use another battery charger.

The Li-lon battery is protected against deep discharging. When the battery is empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The chuck no longer rotates. In a warm environment or after heavy use, the battery pack may become too hot to permit charging. Allow time for the battery to cool down before recharging.

When the battery is charged for the first time and after prolonged storage, the battery will only accept approximately 60% charge. However, after several charge and discharge cycles the battery will accept a 100% charge.

B) TO REMOVE OR INSTALL BATTERY PACK (See Fig. A)

Depress the battery pack release button to release and slide the battery pack out from your tool. After recharge, slide it back into your tool. A simple push and slight pressure will be sufficient.

OPERATION

1. INSTALLING OR REMOVING A DRIVER BIT, DRILL BIT OR DETACHABLE KEYLESS CHUCK (See Fig. B)

To install the desired bit or the detachable keyless chuck, pull the collet locking sleeve (7) forward and insert the desired bit or hex shank of the detachable keyless chuck into the sleeve as far as it will go. Then release the collet locking sleeve to secure the bit or the chuck. To remove the bit or the chuck, pull the collet locking sleeve (7) forward and take the tool out firmly.

2. ON / OFF SWITCH (See Fig. C)

Depress the On/Off switch (5) to start and release it to stop your tool. The on/off switch is fitted with a brake function which stops your chuck immediately when you quickly release the switch.

It is also a variable speed switch that delivers higher speed and torque with increased trigger pressure. Speed is controlled by the amount of switch trigger depression.

WARNING: Do not operate for long periods at low speed because excess heat will be produced internally.

3. SWITCH LOCK

The switch trigger can be locked in the OFF position. This helps to reduce the possibility of accidental starting when not in use. To lock the switch trigger, place the rotation control in the center position.

4. REVERSIBLE (See Fig. C)

For drilling and screw driving use forward rotation marked “◀(lever is moved to the left). Only use reverse rotation marked “▶(lever is moved to the right) to remove screws or release a jammed drill bit.

WARNING: Never change the direction of rotation when the chuck is rotating, wait until it has stopped!

5. CHUCK ADJUSTMENT (See Fig. D)

Detachable chuck is suggested for using in the drill mode.

To open the chuck jaws, firmly hold the rear sleeve of the chuck, and then rotate the front sleeve. Insert the drill bit between the chuck jaws and rotate the front sleeve in the opposite direction. Ensure the drill bit is in the center of the chuck jaws. Finally, hold the rear sleeve of the chuck and firmly rotate the front sleeve in the opposite directions. Your drill bit is now clamped in the chuck.

6. USING THE LED LIGHT

To turn on the light simply press the on/off switch. When you release the on/off switch, the light will be off.

LED lighting increases visibility-great for dark or enclosed area. LED is also a battery capacity indicator. It will flash when power gets low.

7. FUNCTION MODE SELECTION

The operation of the tool for each application is set with the function mode selection switch (9). To change between functions, slide the function mode selection switch (9) to the desired operating mode as follows:

	Screwdriver mode (See Fig. E1)
	Drill driver mode (See Fig. E2)
	Impact driver mode (See Fig. E3)

WARNING: When using the function mode selection switch, use only when the tool stops. But when the switch does not easily move, depress the On/off switch slightly to rotate the spindle and then move the function mode selection switch.

Slide the function mode selection switch (9) to mark "A". Adjust the adjusting ring (8) to the proper torque level for your work.

The torque is adjusted by rotating the torque adjustment ring (See Fig. F). The torque is greater when the torque adjustment ring is set on a higher setting. The torque is less when the torque adjustment ring is set on a lower setting.

Make the setting as follows:

1 - 4 For driving small screws
5 - 9	For driving screws into soft material
10 - 14	For driving screws into soft and hard material
15 - 19	For driving screws into hard wood
20 - 22	For driving larger screws

DRILLING OPERATION

Slide the function mode selection switch (9) to mark

“” “” The adjusting ring can be aligned in any torque levels for this operation. The drill has a two-speed gear control designed for drilling or driving at LO (mark is 📋or HI (mark is ) speed (See Fig. E2). When using the drill in the LO speed range, the speed will decrease and the drill will have greater power and torque. When using the drill in the HI speed range, the speed will increase and the drill will have less power and torque.

WARNING: To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck to come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation or the two-speed gear control.

When drilling into a hard smooth surface, use a center punch to mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the drill bit from slipping off center as the hole is started. Hold the tool firmly and place the tip of the bit at the point to be drilled. Depress the switch trigger to start the tool. Move the drill bit into the workpiece, applying only enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force or apply side pressure to elongate a hole.

Tungsten carbide drill bits should always be used for concrete and masonry. When drilling in metal, only use HSS drill bits in good condition. Always use a magnetic bit holder (not included) when using short screwdriver bits. When screw-driving, apply a small quantity of liquid soap or similar to the screw threads to ease insertion.

Slide the function mode selection switch (9) to mark "

The adjusting ring can be aligned in any torque levels for this operation.

8. DISPOSAL OF AN EXHAUSTED BATTERY PACK

To preserve natural resources, please recycle or dispose of the battery pack properly. This battery pack contains

Lithium batteries. Consult your local waste

authority for information regarding available recycling and/or disposal options. Discharge your battery pack by operating your tool, then remove the battery pack from the tool housing and cover the battery pack connections with heavy-duty adhesive tape to prevent short circuit and energy discharge. Do not attempt to open or remove any of the components.

9. OVERLOAD PROTECTION

When overloaded, the motor comes to a stop. Relieve the load on the machine immediately and allow cooling for approx. 30 seconds at the highest no-load speed.

10. TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT OVERLOAD PROTECTION

When using as intended for the power tool cannot be subject to overload. When the load is too high or the allowable battery temperature of 75^ C is exceeded, the electronic control switches off the power tool until the temperature is in the optimum temperature range again.

11. PROTECTION AGAINST DEEP DISCHARGING

The Li-lon battery is protected against deep discharging by the "Discharging Protection System". When the battery is empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.
