Variable Speed Trigger Switch (Fig. A)

To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch

1

. To turn the

tool off, release the trigger switch. Your tool is equipped with a

brake. The tool will stop when the trigger switch is fullyreleased.

The variable speed switch enables you to start the application at

a slow speed. The further you squeeze the trigger, the faster the

tool will operate. For maximum tool life, use variable speed only

for starting holes orfasteners.

NOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not

recommended. It may damage the switch and should

beavoided.

Forward/Reverse Control Button (Fig. A)

A forward/reverse control button

2

determines the direction of

the tool and also serves as a lock-offbutton.

To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch

1

and

depress the forward/reverse control button

2

on the right side

of thetool.

To select reverse, release the trigger switch

1

and depress

the forward/reverse control button

2

on the left side of the

tool. The centre position of the control button locks the trigger

switch in the off position. When changing the position of the

control button, be sure the trigger isreleased.

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.

Worklights (Fig. A)

There are three worklights

7

located around the 6.35 mm hex

chuck

4

. The worklights are activated when the trigger switch

isdepressed.

When the trigger is released, the worklight will stay illuminated

for up to 20seconds.

NOTE: The worklights are for lighting the immediate work

surface and are not intended to be used as aflashlight.

Mode Selector (Fig. A, D)

Your tool is equipped with a mode selector

11

which allows

you to select one of three modes. Select the mode based on the

application and control the speed of the tool using the variable

speed trigger switch

1

Precision Drive (Fig. D)

In addition to normal impacting modes, this tool features the

Precision Drive mode which enables greater control in lighter

applications to avoid damage to materials or fasteners. It is ideal

for light applications such as cabinet hinge screws or machine

screws. Precision Drive mode will work as a screwdriver in light

applications, before hesitating as the screw head reaches the

work piece, and then (if required) start a slow controlled impact

to ensure the head ends perfectlyflush.

NOTE: This mode is for light duty screwdriving applications. If

the tool will not drive a fastener in Precision Mode, please select

mode 2 which will give the additional powerrequired.
