up" block to prevent damage to the material.
1. Select the desired speed/torque range using the gear
shifter

to match the speed and torque to the planned
operation. Turn the collar
2. Use sharp drill bits only. For MASONRY, such as brick,
cement, cinder block, etc., use carbide-tipped bits rated
for percussion drilling.
3. Always apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use
enough pressure to keep drill biting, but do not push
hard enough to stall the motor or deflect the bit.
4. Hold tool firmly with both hands to control the twisting
action of the drill. If model is not equipped with side
handle, grip drill with one hand on the handle and one
hand on the battery pack.
WARNING: Drill may stall if overloaded causing a
sudden twist. Always expect the stall. Grip the drill
firmly to control the twisting action and avoid injury.
5. IF THE DRIll sTalls, it is usually because it is being
overloaded or improperly used. RElEasE TRIggER
