Speed Gearbox; Using The Drill - I-DRILL 2i-drill Manual Del Usuario

CAUTION! If the red or green LED keeps flashing during
the charging process for more than 20 minutes, please
remove the battery and allow to cool down for 15 - 30
minutes. Then insert it into charger base again, if the LED
still flashes, the battery and charger require service.
Note. If the battery pack is still hot to hold, allow to cool for a
30 min and re insert. The charger will not charge a hot battery.

2 Speed gearbox

GB
The 2 Speed Gearbox allows you
to select a gear with the optimum
speed and torque to suit the
application.
Note. When changing the drill
selector ensure the drill is not
operating.
To select the LOW gear (low speed, high torque setting),
push the gear selector (13) backward, towards the back of
the drill. The word LO will be displayed.
To select the HIGH gear (high speed, low torque setting),
push the gear selector (13) forward, towards the chuck.
The word HI will be displayed.

Using the drill

Trigger switch
Use the forward/reverse switch
(4) to select the direction of
rotation, then pull the trigger (3).
This trigger switch is an electronic
variable speed control which
enables the user to vary the
speed continuously. The speed
varies according to how far the
trigger switch is depressed. The
further it is depressed the faster
the chuck will rotate and the
lighter it is depressed, the slower
it will rotate.
To stop the drill, release the
trigger switch.
Note. The variable Speed control fitted to this drill is NOT
intended to be used for long periods of time during the
operation of the task being performed. Use the variable
speed to start drilling and screwing tasks, and then fully
depress the trigger once the task has started.
CAUTION. Extended use of the variable speed under
load will overload and then permanently damage the
speed control.
Drill Overload
This drill is fitted with an overload protection. If the drill is
excessively forced, or the task being performed is too great
for the drill, the drill will automatically go into an overload
mode. When the drill goes into overload, the drill will
automatically and suddenly STOP. To reset the overload,
simply release the trigger. When the trigger is pressed
again, the drill will restart. Resume work after the overload
has been reset, but reduce the load by using a smaller drill
bit or re-sharpen the existing drill bit and reduce the amount
of force placed on the drill. If the drill is set to High speed on
the gear selector, consider changing to low speed selection.
CAUTION. Do not continue to overload the drill and
constantly reset the overload. Doing this will cause the
battery cells to over heat.
Temperature Cut Out
If the drill is constantly overloaded, or the drill is used
constantly at maximum rating in high ambient conditions,
the battery cells may over heat causing the battery pack to
shut down.
When this occurs you will need to immediately stop drilling
and allow the battery cells to reduce the temperature.
Note. The drill will not restart until the battery pack has cooled.
To reduce the temperature of the cells remove the battery
pack from the drill and place the battery pack in a free air
environment, out of direct sunlight or any other heat source.
DO NOT force cool the pack in any way. Do not place in
refrigerators or freezers.

When the battery pack has cooled down it can again
be used to operate the drill, as long as the load or the
conditions causing the original excessive temperature has
been corrected.
Low voltage cut out
The battery pack used on this tool is fitted with a low
voltage cut out feature within the circuitry.
The low voltage cut out feature operates when the voltage
drops below a pre set value. This feature automatically
stops the drill from operating (similar to that of the over
load condition). When this condition occurs you will need
to either insert another battery into the drill or recharge the
existing battery.
The low voltage cut out feature has been added to
maximise the tools life. When this occurs, recharge the
battery pack by following the battery charging section in
this manual.
Note:
Attempting to restart the tool without either recharging
the battery or installing another battery (with charge) will
lead to drill restarting and then stopping again, after only a
few seconds of operation.
Forward/reverse switch
Note. You can only change the direction of rotation of the
drill using the forward/reverse switch when the trigger is
NOT depressed.
This switch (4) will allow you to change the direction of the
motor while the trigger switch is not depressed.
Drilling uses the forward mode. The reverse mode is
intended for the removal of screws and assisting to remove
jammed drill bits.
Adjustable torque
This drill is equipped with 17
torque settings plus one drill
setting which are controlled
by the torque collar (2). All of
the torque settings are clearly
identified on the torque collar. To
adjust the torque setting you rotate the torque collar. The
higher the number, the higher the torque setting.
Controlling the torque allows for better control when using
the drill on specific add screwing tasks and prevents over-
fastening and over-tightening.
For drilling, always use the Drill position by aligning the Drill
symbol with the triangular indicator on the front face of the
drill near the torque collar.
For setting the torque position, select a low setting on
the torque collar and align the selected symbol with the
triangular indicator on the top of the drill.
Inserting and removing bits
This drill has a keyless chuck,
which means that a chuck key
is not needed to secure a bit in
the drill.
Open the chuck by unscrewing
it in an anti-clockwise direction,
holding the drill as shown.
Do this sufficiently enough to
allow the drill bit to enter the jaws of the chuck.
Ensure the drill bit is fully inserted, so that the chuck jaws
grip the straight section of the bit.
Rotate the chuck clock-wise until the jaws tighten on the drill
bit. The collar of the chuck needs to be tightened firmly to
ensure the drill bit is held securely.
To remove the drill bit, rotate sharply the chuck in a anti-
clockwise direction, sufficiently enough to allow the drill bit
to be removed.
Note. This device is fitted with spindle lock and the chuck
is a one handed operation.
