Assembly
Fitting and removing a drill bit or a
screwdriver bit (fig. B)
This tool uses screwdriver bits and drill bits
with a 6.35 mm (1/4") hexagonal shank.
• To fit a bit, insert the bit shaft into the bit
holder (3).
• To remove a bit, pull the bit shaft out of
the bit holder (3).
Note: The right angled attachment shown in
fig. E-J may not be included with your tool.
Use
Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace.
Do not overload.
• Before first use, the battery must be
charged for at least 15 hours.
Charging the battery (fig. C)
• Insert the charger plug (6) into the
charger connector (7).
• Plug in the charger (5).
• Leave the tool connected to the charger
for 15 hours.
The charger may hum and become warm
while charging; this is normal and does not
indicate a problem.
Warning! Only use the charger provided to
charge CS3651LC.
Warning! Do not charge the battery at ambient
temperatures below 10 °C or above 40 °C.
Selecting the direction of rotation (fig. D)
For drilling and for tightening screws, use
forward rotation. For loosening screws or
removing a jammed drill bit, use reverse
rotation.
• To select forward rotation, push the
forward/reverse slider (2) to the forward
position.
• To select reverse rotation, push the
forward/reverse slider (2) to the rearward
position.
• To lock the tool, set the forward/reverse
slider into the centre position.
Drilling/screwdriving

the forward/reverse slider (2).

The LED work light (4) is activated
automatically when the trigger is depressed.
The LED will also illuminate when the trigger

position).
Hints for optimum use
Screwdriving
• Always use the correct type and size of
screwdriver bit.
• If screws are difficult to tighten, try
applying a small amount of washing liquid
or soap as a lubricant.
• Use the spindle lock to loosen very tight
screws or to firmly tighten screws.
• Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit
in a straight line with the screw.
• When screwing in wood, it is
recommended to drill a pilot hole with a
depth equal to the length of the screw. A
pilot hole guides the screw and prevents
splintering or distortion of the wood. For
the optimum size of the pilot hole, refer
to the table below.
• When screwing in hardwood, also drill a
clearance hole with a depth equal to half
the length of the screw. For the optimum
size of the clearance hole, refer to the
table below.
