OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Before using the tool, read the
instruction book carefully.
1. ON/OFF SWITCH
Depress to start and release to stop your tool.
(See Fig. A)
2. VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL SELECTOR (See Fig. B)
The maximum speed can be altered by turning the
speed control. Turn clockwise to increase and anti-
clockwise to decrease speed. The speed of the drill
varies with the amount of pressure applied to the on/off
switch, i.e. more pressure for higher speed.
3. SWITCH LOCK-ON BUTTON
Depress ON/OFF switch (5) then lock-on button (3) (See
Fig. C), release ON/OFF switch first and lock-on button
second. Your switch is now locked on for continuous
use. To switch off your tool just depress and release the
ON/OFF switch.
4. FORWARD AND REVERSE ROTATION CONTROL
(See Fig. D & E)
For drilling and screw driving use forward rotation
marked “ ” (switch is moved to the left). Only use
reverse rotation marked “ ” (switch is moved to the
right) to remove screws or release a jammed drill bit.
Never change the direction of rotation when the tool is
rotating, wait until it has stopped.
5. CHUCK ADJUSTMENT (See Fig. F)
To open the chuck jaws rotate the front section of the
chuck while holding the rear section. Insert the drill bit
between the chuck jaws and rotate the front section in
the opposite direction while holding the rear section.
Ensure drill bit is in the center of the chuck jaws.
i) Holding the work by hand or against your body
leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
b) If the replacement of the supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the
manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a
safety hazard.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES - FOR
DRILLS
1. Wear ear protectors with drills. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
2. Hold power tools by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Contact with a ‘live’ wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool ‘live’ and shock the
operator.
3. Do not use the drill near water.
4. Do not use the drill as a screwdriver.
5. Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out
any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
6. Fully unwind extension cords to avoid potential
overheating.
7. When an extension cord is required you must ensure
it has the correct ampere rating for your power tool
and that it is in a safe electrical condition.
8. Ensure your supply voltage is the same as your tool
rating plate voltage.
9. Your tool is double insulated for additional protection
against a possible electrical insulation failure within
the tool.
10. Always check walls and ceilings to avoid hidden
power cables and pipes.
11. After long working periods, external metal parts and
accessories could be hot.
12. Wear eye protection when operating this tool.
13. Maintain a firm grip on the handle when you are
working. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently
and use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If
someone borrows this tool, make sure they have these
instructions.
WARNING! Some dust created by using
power tools contains chemicals known
to the State of California to cause cancer and
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
1) Lead from lead-based paint
2) Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products
3) Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber
Your risk to these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals:
1) Work in a well ventilated area
2) Work with approved safety equipment, such as
those dust masks that are specifically designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing
and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the
skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate
and/or disburse dust, which may cause
serious and permanent respiratory or other
injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved
respiratory protection appropriate for the dust
exposure. Direct particles away from face and
body.
DOUBLE INSULATION
The tool is double insulated. This means that all the
external metal parts are electrically insulated from the
electric power supply. This is done by placing insulation
barriers between the electrical and mechanical
components making it unnecessary for the tool to be
grounded.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Be sure the power supply is the same as the voltage
given on the rating plate. The tool is fitted with a two-
core cable and plug.
Remove the power plug from socket before carrying out
any adjustment or servicing.
