Lighting up the lamps

For Models

Reversing switch action (Fig. 6)

CAUTION:

• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.

• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a

complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation

before the tool stops may damage the tool.

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of

rotation. Move the reversing switch lever to the

position (A side) for clockwise rotation or the position

(B side) for counterclockwise rotation.

Hook (Fig. 7)

The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

Installing or removing the bit

To remove the bit, first remove the locator by pulling the

lock ring away from the gear housing. (Fig. 8)

Then check the type of bit holder that your tool employs. If

it has silver colored solid sleeve, it is "magnetic connect

bit holder". If it has gold and silver colored separate

sleeves, it is "easy-connect bit holder".

For tool with magnetic bit holder

Grasp the bit with a pair of pliers and pull the bit out of the

magnetic bit holder. Sometimes, it helps to wiggle the bit

with the pliers as you pull.

To install the bit, push it firmly into the magnetic bit holder.

Then install the locator by pushing it firmly back onto the

gear housing. (Fig. 9)

For tool with easy-connect bit holder

Keep fully pushing the slide sleeve, which is a gold

colored part of the easy bit holder, toward the tool and pull

the bit out of the easy bit holder. (Fig. 10 & 11)

To install the bit, push it firmly into the easy bit holder.

Then install the locator by pushing it firmly back onto the

gear housing. (Fig. 12)

Installing removable cord adapter

For Model FS6300R (Fig. 13)

Insert the removable cord adapter as far as it goes so that

the marking on an end of the removable cord adapter

on the side of connecting to power supply cord is aligned

to the marking on the other end of the removable cord

adapter on the side of connecting to the tool.

Turn the removable cord adapter clockwise until it is

locked with a lock button. (Fig. 14)

And at this time the marking on an end of the

removable cord adapter on the side of power supply cord

is aligned to the marking on the other end of the

removable cord adapter on the side of connecting to the

tool. (Fig. 15)

Removing removable cord adapter

(Fig. 16)

Rotate the removable cord adapter counterclockwise until

it stops while pressing the lower part of the lock button.

Then pull the removable cord adapter in that position.

(Fig. 17)

Use of locator holder (Fig. 18)

The locator can be temporarily held on the locator holder

during replacing bit or using without locator. To hold the

locator, position the trapezoidal holes of the locator on the

swells of the locator holder and push it in.

OPERATION (Fig. 19)

Fit the screw on the point of the bit and place the point of

the screw on the surface of the workpiece to be fastened.

Apply pressure to the tool and start it. Withdraw the tool

as soon as the clutch cuts in. Then release the switch

trigger.

CAUTION:

• When fitting the screw onto the point of the bit, be

careful not to push in on the screw. If the screw is

pushed in, the clutch will engage and the screw will

rotate suddenly. This could damage a workpiece or

cause an injury.

• Make sure that the bit is inserted straight in the screw

head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.

• Hold the tool only by the handle when performing an

operation. Do not touch the metal part.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or

maintenance.

To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,

carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other

maintenance or adjustment should be performed by
