is
depressed, and will automatically turn off 20seconds after

Variable Speed Trigger and Forward/
Reverse Control Button (Fig.A)
The tool is turned on and off by pulling and releasing the
variable speed trigger

. The farther the trigger is depressed,
the higher the speed of the tool. Your tool is equipped with
a brake. The chuck will stop as soon as the trigger switch is
fullyreleased.
A forward/reverse control button

determines the
rotational direction of the tool and also serves as a
lock-offbutton.

and depress the forward/reverse control button on the
right side of thetool.
• To select reverse (counterclockwise), depress the
forward/reverse control button on the left side of
thetool.
NOTE: 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: Continuous use in variable speed range is not
recommended. It may damage the switch and should
beavoided.
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.
