Drill mode selection
For normal drilling, select the correct gear which is normally the high speed 2nd gear, then
rotate the Mode Selector so the drill symbol is aligned with the indicator on the tool body.
Torque control
This drill driver is fitted with torque control, which limits the torque output of the drill, ena-
bling screws to be driven without the risk of damage. There are 16 torque settings and 1 drill
setting. The lower the number, the lower the torque.
- To set the torque clutch, select the first gear and rotate the Mode Selector so the drive
symbol is aligned with the indicator on the tool body.
- Rotate the Torque Selector until the setting you require is aligned with the drive symbol.
- Check that the torque setting is correct by practicing first on a piece of scrap material.
WARNING: The drill can be fitted with a drive adaptor for use with driving nuts and bolts.
Do not attempt to use this tool in the drill position when doing so. Use the 16 torque settings
and the first gear to allow the torque clutch to protect the tool from excessive load. The use
of a spanner to loosen or tighten a nut/bolt is recommended. This allows the tool to speed
up the operation without risk of damage when high torque is required at the beginning or
end of the operation.
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. Note: If the Trigger Switch cannot be
pressed down, check that the Forward/Reverse Switch is not set to its middle position,
which locks the device (see “Direction control”).
2. The speed of the drill is controlled by the movement of the trigger: the further the trigger
is pressed down, the faster the drill will run.
3. Release the Trigger Switch to stop the machine.
Note: A built-in LED Work Light will operate each time the Trigger Switch is pressed to illu-
minate the work area.
Screwdriver use
Note: Use a universal bit holder (not supplied) when working with screwdriver bits. Only
mount screwdriver bits directly into the chuck if it is essential to access a screw head. Use a
bit holder at all other times.
- When driving screws NEVER use the machine in drill mode. This will protect the motor by
causing the clutch to slip rather than the motor to stall when the screw is fully inserted in
the workpiece and cannot rotate any further.
- Always adjust the drill to the appropriate torque setting (see ‘Drill mode selection’ &
‘Torque control’)
Note: If in doubt about which torque setting best suits the application, start with a low set-
ting and increase, should more torque be required (e.g. if the screw is not being driven far
enough into the workpiece).
