DW500/DW505 - Keyed chuck
Open the chuck by turning the sleeve (9)
counterclockwise and insert the bit shank.
Put the chuck key (10) into each hole in the side
of the chuck and turn clockwise until tight.
To remove the bit, proceed in reverse order.
Fitting the side handle (fig. A)
The side handle (6) can be fitted to suit both RH-
and LH-users.
Always use the Drill with the side handle
properly assembled.
Loosen the side handle.
For RH-users, slide the side handle clamp over
the collar behind the chuck, handle at the left.
For LH-users, slide the side handle clamp over
the colar behind the chuck, handle at the right.
Rotate the side handle to the desired position
and tighten the handle.
Setting the drilling depth (fig. C)
Insert the required drill bit into the chuck.
Slacken the side handle (6).
Fit the depth adjustment rod (7) through the hole
in the side handle clamp.
Adjust the drilling depth as shown.
Tighten the side handle.
Forward/reverse slider (fig. A)
To select forward or reverse rotation, use the
forward/reverse-switch (3) (see arrow on tool).
Always wait until the motor has come to
a complete standstill before changing the
direction of rotation.
Two gear selector (fig. D)
This tool is fitted with a two gear selector (4) to vary
the speed/torque ratio.
Release the ON/OFF-switch and select the
required position as the drill coasts to a stop.
Always align the selector arrow with the gear
symbol on the gear housing:
1 low speed/high torque
(drilling large holes or driving large screws)
2 high speed/low torque
(smaller holes, drilling in wood)
For speed rates, refer to the technical data.
Do not change gears at full speed or
during use.

Instructions for use
Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
Be aware of the location of pipework
and wiring.
Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool.
Excessive force does not speed up
drilling but decreases tool performance
and may shorten tool life.
Prior to operation:
Insert the appropriate bit.
Mark the spot where the hole is to be drilled.
Switching ON and OFF (fig. A)
To run the tool, press the variable speed switch.
The pressure exerted on the variable speed
switch determines the tool speed.
Screwdriving
Select forward or reverse rotation.
Use the low speed/high torque position
(1st gear).
