OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Installing or removing drill bit

Important:

Always be sure that the machine is switched off and

unplugged before installing or removing the bit.

For 6407 (Fig. 1)

To install the bit, place it in the chuck as far as it will

go. Tighten the chuck by hand. Place the chuck key in

each of the three holes and tighten clockwise. Be sure

to tighten all three chuck holes evenly.

To remove the bit, turn the chuck key counterclock-

wise in just one hole, then loosen the chuck by hand.

After using the chuck key, remember to return it to the

chuck key holder.

For 6408 (Fig. 2)

Hold the ring and turn the sleeve counterclockwise to

open the chuck jaws. Place the bit in the chuck as far

as it will go. Hold the ring firmly and turn the sleeve

clockwise to tighten the chuck.

To remove the bit, hold the ring and turn the sleeve

counterclockwise.

Switch action (Fig. 3)

CAUTION:

Before plugging in the machine, always check to see

that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to

the ‘‘OFF’’ position when released.

To start the machine, simply pull the trigger. Machine

speed is increased by increasing pressure on the

trigger. Release the trigger to stop. For continuous

operation, pull the trigger and then push in the lock

button. To stop the machine from the locked position,

pull the trigger fully, then release it.

Reversing switch action (Fig. 4)

CAUTION:

•

Always check the direction of rotation before drilling.

•

Use the reversing switch lever only after the

machine comes to a complete stop. Changing the

direction of rotation before the machine stops may

damage the machine.

This machine has a reversing switch to change the

direction of rotation. Move the reversing switch lever

to the

position for clockwise rotation or the posi-

tion for counterclockwise rotation.
