swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in just
2hours and can lead todeath.
Keep new and used batteries away from children.
If the battery compartment does not close
securely, stop using the product and keep it away
fromchildren.
If you think batteries might have been swallowed
or placed inside any part of the body, seek
immediate medicalattention.
If the coin cell battery contents come into contact
with the skin, immediately wash area with mild
soap and water. If coin cell battery liquid gets
into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for
15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical
attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is
composed of an organic solvent and lithiumsalts.
Do not incinerate or dispose of tool together with
household waste material! Tool that has reached
the end of its life must be collected separately
and returned to an environmentally compatible
recyclingfacility.
OPERATION
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start-up can causeinjury. Exception—Tool
Connect™ functions and mode adjustments require
battery to beinstalled.
NOTICE: Always check the tool configuration prior
to use. If you are unsure of the current configuration,
press the mode selector button
12
(Fig. J) to set the
tool to the Home setting as described on the label and
thismanual.
Installing and Removing the Battery Pack
(Fig. K)
NOTE: For best results, make sure your battery pack is
fullycharged.
To install the battery pack
11
into the tool handle, align the
battery pack with the rails inside the tool’s handle and slide
it into the handle until the battery pack is firmly seated in
the tool and ensure that it does notdisengage.
To remove the battery pack from the tool, press the release

Screwdriving (Fig. D)
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.
Drilling (Fig. E)
NOTICE: If drilling thin material, use a wood “back-
up” block to prevent damage to thematerial.
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 drillsymbol.
2. Use sharp drill bits only. For MASONRY, such as brick,
cement, cinder block, etc., use carbide-tipped bits rated
for percussiondrilling.
3. Always apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use
enough pressure to keep drill biting, but do not push
hard enough to stall the motor or deflect thebit.
4. Hold tool firmly with both hands to control the twisting
action of the drill. If model is not equipped with side
handle, grip drill with one hand on the handle and one
hand on the batterypack.
