CAUTION: When using the tool as a spotlight, be
sure it is secured on a stable surface where it will
not cause a tripping or falling hazard.
CAUTION: Remove all accessories from the
chuck before using the drill as a spotlight.
Personal injury or property damage could

Low Battery Warning
When in spotlight mode and the battery is nearing
complete discharge, the spotlight will flash twice and
then dim. After two minutes, the battery will be
completely discharged and the drill will immediately
shut down. At this point, replace with a
charged battery.

have a back
up battery or secondary lighting
available if the situation warrants it.
Keyless Single Sleeve Chuck (Fig. C)
WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten drill bits
(or any other accessory) by gripping the front
part of the chuck and turning the tool on.
Damage to the chuck and personal injury may
result. Always lock off trigger switch and remove
the battery from the tool when
changing acces sories.
WARNING: Always ensure the bit is secure before
starting the tool. A loose bit may eject from tool
causing possible personal injury.
Your tool features a keyless chuck 6 with one
rotating chuck sleeve 7 for one handed operation of
the chuck. To insert a drill bit or other accessory,
follow these steps.
1. Turn tool off and disconnect tool from power
source.
2. Grasp the black sleeve of the chuck with one hand
and use the other hand to secure the tool. Rotate
the sleeve anticlockwise (as viewed from the front)
far enough to accept the desired accessory.
3. Insert the accessory about 19 mm into the chuck
and
tighten securely by rotating the chuck sleeve
clockwise with one hand while holding the tool
with the other hand. Continue to rotate the
chuck sleeve until several ratchet clicks are heard
to ensure full gripping power. nOTE: Be sure to
tighten chuck with one hand on the chuck sleeve
and one hand holding the tool for maximum
tightness.
To release the accessory, repeat steps 1 and 2 above.
OPERATION Instructions for Use
WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start
up can cause injury.
Proper Hand Position (Fig. I)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, ALWAYS use proper hand
position as shown.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, ALWAYS hold securely in anticipation
of a sudden reaction. Proper hand position requires
one hand on the main handle 15 , with the other hand
on the side handle 14 to control the twisting action
of the drill.
Screwdriver Operation (Fig. A)
1. Select the desired speed/torque range using the
three speed gear shifter 8 on the top of the tool.
If using the torque adjustment collar 5 , initially set
the three speed gear shifter to speed 2 or 3. This
ensures effective control over the fastener allowing
the screw to be seated correctly and set to
specification. Speed 1 will provide the same
clutching torque as speeds 2 and 3. However, for
optimum performance of the electronic clutch,
speeds 2 and 3 are preferred.
nOTE: Use the lowest torque setting (1) first and
increase the number through to the highest setting
(11) to seat the fastener at the desired depth. The
lower the number, the lower the torque output.
