Screwdriving (Fig. K)
1. Select the desired speed/torque range using the
gear shifter to match the speed and torque to the
plannedoperation.
2. Turn the torque adjustment collar
3
to the
desiredposition.
NOTE: Use the lowest torque setting required to
seat the fastener at the desired depth. The lower the
number, the lower the torqueoutput.
3. Insert the desired fastener accessory into the chuck as
you would any drillbit.
4. Make some practice runs in scrap or on unseen areas of
the workpiece to determine the proper position of the
torque adjustmentcollar.
5. Always start with lower torque settings, then advance
to higher torque settings to avoid damage to the
workpiece orfastener.

Hammerdrilling (Fig. L)
1. Select the desired speed/torque range using the gear
shifter to match the speed and torque to the planned
operation. Turn the collar
(
3
)
to the hammerdrillsymbol.
IMPORTANT: Use carbide-tipped or masonry bits rated
for percussion drillingonly.
2. Drill with just enough force on the hammer to keep
it from bouncing excessively or "rising" off the bit.
Too much force will cause slower drilling speeds,
overheating, and a lower drillingrate.
3. Drill straight, keeping the bit at a right angle to the work.
Do not exert side pressure on the bit when drillling as
this will cause clogging of the bit flutes and a slower
drillingspeed.
4. When drilling deep holes, if the hammer speed starts to
drop off, pull the bit partially out of the hole with tool
still running to help clear debris from thehole.
NOTE: A smooth, even flow of dust from the hole indicates
proper drilling rate
