To remove:
[] Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of
rotation selector in the center position.
[] Open the chuck jaws.
NOTE: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the
arrow marked UNLOCK to open the chuck jaws. Do
not use a wrench to tighten or loosen the chuck jaws.
Remove the bit.

Bits can be placed in the storage area, located on the
base of the drill.
DRILLING/DRIVING
SCREWS
See Figure 11, page ii.
A level is located on the top of the motor housing to help
keep the drill bit level during use.
[] Check the direction of rotation selector for the correct
setting (forward or reverse).
[] Use LO (1) speed for high torque applications
and
HI (2) speed for fast drilling or driving applications.
Refer to Two-Speed Gear Train and Adjusting Torque.
[] Secure the workpiece
in a vise or with clamps to keep
it from turning as the bit rotates.
[] Install auxiliary handle.
[] Hold the drill firmly and place the bit at the point to be
drilled, or where the screw is to be driven.

WARNING:
Do not drive a screw where there is
likely to be hidden wiring behind the surface. Con-
tact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts
of the tool "live" and possibly shock the operator.
If you must drive a screw where hidden wire may
be present, always hold tool by insulated gripping
surfaces (handle) when performing the operation to
prevent a shock to the operator.

Depress the switch trigger to start the drill.
Move the bit into the workpiece, applying only enough
pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force the drill
or apply side pressure to elongate a hole. Let the tool
do the work.
A
WARNING:
When drilling, be prepared for binding
at bit breakthrough.
When these situations occur,
drill has a tendency to grab and kick opposite to the
direction of rotation and could cause loss of control
when breaking through material. If not prepared, this
loss of control can result in possible serious injury.
[] With hard, smooth surfaces, use a center punch to
mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the bit
from slipping off-center as the hole is started.
[] If the bit jams in the workpiece or if the drill stalls,
stop the tool immediately. Remove the bit from the
workpiece
and determine the reason for jamming.
NOTE: This drill has an electric brake. When the switch
trigger is released, the chuck stops turning. When the
brake is functioning
properly, sparks will be visible through
the vent slots on the housing. This is normal and is the
action of the brake.
WOOD AND METAL DRILLING
For maximum performance,
use high speed steel bits for
wood or metal drilling. Begin drilling at a very low speed
to prevent the bit from slipping off the starting point.
Wood Drilling
[] Increase the speed as the drill bit bites into the
material.
[] When drilling through holes, place a block of wood
behind the workpiece to prevent ragged or splintered
edges on the back side of the hole.
Metal and Steel Ddlling
[] Use a light oil on the drill bit to keep it from overheat-
ing. The oil will prolong the life of the bit and increase
the drilling action.
[] Maintain a speed and pressure which allows cutting
without overheating the bit. Applying too much pres-
sure will:
• Overheat the drill;
Wear the bearings;
Bend or burn bits; and
Produce off-center or irregular-shaped
holes.
[] When drilling large holes in metal, start with a small bit,
then finish with a larger bit.
