WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, ONLY use the tool's belt hook to hang the
tool from a work belt. DO NOT use the belt hook
for tethering or securing the tool to a person or object
during use. DO NOT suspend tool overhead or suspend
objects from the belthook.


, use only the screw
8
that is provided. Be sure
to securely tighten thescrew.
The belt hook
7
and bit clip
9
can be attached to either
side of the tool using only the screw
8
provided, to
accommodate left- or right- handed users. If the hook or bit
clip is not desired at all, it can be removed from thetool.
To move belt hook or bit clip, remove the screw

that
holds it in place then reassemble on the opposite side. Be
sure to securely tighten thescrew.
Variable Speed Trigger Switch (Fig.A)
To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch
1
. To turn
the tool off, release the trigger switch. Your tool is equipped
with a brake. The chuck will stop as soon as the trigger
switch is fullyreleased.
NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not
recommended. It may damage the switch and should
beavoided.
Forward/Reverse Control Button (Fig.A)
A forward/reverse control button
2
determines the
direction of the tool and also serves as a lock-offbutton.
To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and
depress the forward/reverse control button on the right side
of thetool.
To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control
button on the left side of thetool.
The center position of the control button locks the tool in
the off position. When changing the position of the control
button, be sure the trigger isreleased.
NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing the
direction of rotation, you may hear a click on start up. This is
normal and does not indicate aproblem.
Torque Adjustment Collar (Fig.D–F)
Your tool has an adjustable torque screwdriver mechanism
for driving and removing a wide array of fastener shapes
and sizes and in some models, a hammer mechanism for
drilling into masonry. Circling the collar
3
are numbers, a
drill bit symbol, and in some models, a hammer symbol.
These numbers are used to set the clutch to deliver a torque
range. The higher the number on the collar, the higher the
torque and the larger the fastener which can be driven. To
select any of the numbers, rotate until the desired number
aligns with thearrow.
NOTE: The torque adjustment collar is only engaged during
screwdriving mode and not in drill and hammerdrillmodes.
