8.3 Torque adjustment ring (2)
The drill has a torque adjustment ring. It allows you to select the desired torque depending on
the task you have to perform (drill / screw different types of screws into different materials).
The proper setting depends on the type of material and the size of screw you are using.
TO ADJUST TORQUE: Identify the 16+1+1 torque indicator settings located on the front of the
drill. Rotate adjusting ring (2) to the desired setting. The lower the number, the lower the
torque setting. The higher the number, the higher the torque setting.
8.4 On/off switch (5)
To turn your drill ON, press the switch trigger. To turn it OFF, release the switch trigger.
The switch trigger can be locked in the OFF position. This feature helps reduce the possibility
of accidental starting when not in use.
8.5 Forward/reverse selector (right/left rotation selector) (4)
The drill has a forward/reverse selector located above the switch trigger.
▪ F(Forward) (Forward): Press selector on right side of machine (to the left side): drill turns
right (forward, fasten screws)
▪ R(Reverse) (Reverse): Press selector on left side of machine (to the right side): drill turns
left (reverse/ loosen screws)
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the gearbox, always allow the chuck to
come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation or
selecting another speed (HI-LO). To stop, release the trigger switch.
8.6 Speed selector (3)
Your cordless drill has a two-speed gear, designed for drilling or driving at LO or HI speed. A
slide switch is located on top of your drill to select either LO (1) or HI (2) speed.
The low speed (LO) is used, in combination with the torque setting, for screwing screws in or
out and for drilling with a larger diameter.
The high speed (HI) is used only for drilling (never for screwing, as this may lead to damage of
the tool).
8.7 LED worklight (6)
Your cordless drill is equipped with an LED light at the front (above the ON/OFF switch) above
the battery pack. The white LED light will light when you operate the machine, providing the
work area to be lighted.
8.8 TPR soft grip
▪ Your cordless drill is equipped with TPR soft grip and protective parts. TPR
(Thermoplastic rubber) is elastic, chock absorbing and environmental friendly (recyclable).
9 (PRE)OPERATION
9.1 Battery charging
Use only the battery charger supplied with your tool. Only these battery chargers are matched
to the lithium ion battery of your power tool.
Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full capacity of
the battery, completely charge the battery in the battery charger before
using your power tool for the first time. The lithium ion battery can be
charged at any time without reducing its service life. Interrupting the
charging procedure does not damage the battery.
▪ Connect the plug of the charger to the loading socket (10) of the battery set.
