Installing hook
WARNING:
Use the hanging/mounting parts
for their intended purposes only, e.g., hanging the
tool on a tool belt between jobs or work intervals.
WARNING:
Be careful not to overload the hook
as too much force or irregular overburden may cause
damages to the tool resulting in personal injury.
CAUTION:
When installing the hook, always
secure it with the screw firmly. If not, the hook may
come off from the tool and result in the personal injury.
CAUTION:
Make sure to hang the tool securely
before releasing your hold. Insufficient or unbalanced
hooking may cause falling off and you may be injured.
► 1 . Groove 2. Hook 3. Screw
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool. This can
be installed on either side of the tool. To install the hook, insert it
into a groove in the tool housing on either side and then secure it
with a screw. To remove, loosen the screw and then take it out.
Using hole
WARNING:
Never use the hanging hole for
unintended purpose, for instance, tethering the
tool at high location. Bearing stress in a heavily
loaded hole may cause damages to the hole, result-
ing in injuries to you or people around or below you.
► 1 . Hanging hole
Use the hanging hole at the bottom rear of the tool to hang
the tool on a wall using a hanging cord or similar strings.

OPERATION
CAUTION:
•
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip-
ping part of the tool and the other hand on the
side grip when performing the tool.
Drilling operation
Drilling in metal
To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole,
make an indentation with a center-punch and hammer
at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the
indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The excep-
tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
CAUTION:
•
Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed
up the drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure
will only serve to damage the tip of your bit,
decrease the tool performance and shorten the
service life of the tool.
•
There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/
bit at the time of hole break through. Hold the
tool firmly and exert care when the bit begins to
break through the workpiece.
•
A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting
the reversing switch to reverse rotation in order
to back out. However, the tool may back out
abruptly if you do not hold it firmly.
•
Always secure small workpieces in a vise or
similar hold-down device.
•
If the tool is operated continuously until the
battery cartridge has discharged, allow the tool
to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding with a
fresh battery.
