Switching on/off
WARNING: ALWAYS wear adequate personal protection equipment when setting up and
operating this machine.
1. To start the drill, squeeze the Trigger Switch (7)
2. The built-in Work Light (9) will illuminate when the Trigger Switch is squeezed
Note: If the Trigger Switch cannot be pressed down, check that the Forward/Reverse
Switch (6) is not set to its middle position, which locks the device (see 'Direction control').
3. The speed of the drill is controlled by the movement of the trigger: the further the
Trigger Switch is pressed down, the faster the drill will run
4. Release the Trigger Switch to stop the machine
Screwdriver use
Note: Always use a universal bit holder when working with screwdriver bits. Do not mount
screwdriver bits directly into the chuck.
• Select gear 1 using the Gear Switch (4)
• When driving screws NEVER use the machine in drill mode
• Always adjust the drill to the appropriate torque setting (see 'Torque control')
Note: If in doubt which torque setting best suits the application, start with a low setting and
increase, should more torque be required (e.g. if the screw is not being driven far enough
into the workpiece).
Drilling wood
• Select drilling mode with the Torque Selector (3)
• Select the appropriate gear using the Gear Switch (4)
• Ensure that drill bits are suitable for wood, and are within the maximum capacity of this
machine (see 'Specification')
WARNING: DO NOT inhale wood dust. Wear adequate breathing protection. Some wood
dusts may be toxic.
Drilling metal
• Select drilling mode with the Torque Selector (3)
• Select the appropriate gear using the Gear Switch (4)
• Ensure that drill bits are suitable for the grade of metal being drilled, and are within the
maximum capacity of the machine (see 'Specification')
• To ensure accuracy, mark the intended hole position using a hammer and centre punch
WARNING: The drill bit and the workpiece will become very hot when drilling metal. DO
NOT touch the bit and never allow it to come into contact with combustible materials when
hot. Always use a suitable lubricant or cutting fluid, and drill at appropriate speeds.
• ONLY apply moderate pressure to the drill bit, ensuring efficient cutting and prolonged
drill bit life
• Use a countersink bit to remove sharp burrs from the hole, preventing cuts and other
kinds of injury
WARNING: If the power tool gets excessively hot in use, stop using the tool immediately
and allow to cool before continuing work. The cooling period can be reduced by operating
the drill at maximum speed with no load. Always make sure the Motor Vents (5) are not
blocked and do not allow dust to enter the body of the tool through the Motor Vents; dust,
especially metallic dust, may damage or destroy the tool.

WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the mains power supply, before carrying out
any maintenance/cleaning of the charger. Remove the battery before carrying out any
maintenance/cleaning of the drill.

and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of your machine with a soft
brush, or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the
ventilation holes
• Clean the tool casing with a soft damp cloth using a mild detergent. Do not use alcohol,
petrol or strong cleaning agents
