Selecting the operating mode or torque (FIG. D)

This tool is fitted with a collar to select the operating mode 

and to set the torque for tightening screws. Large screws 

and hard workpiece materials require a higher torque setting 

than small screws and soft workpiece materials. The collar 

has a wide range of settings to suit your application.

•  For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar (3) 

to the drilling position by aligning the symbol with the 

marking (14).

•  For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting. If 

you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as 

follows:

  - Set the collar (3) to the lowest torque setting.

  - Tighten the first screw.

  - If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is 

achieved, increase the collar setting and continue 

tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct 

setting. Use this setting for the remaining screws.

Drilling in masonry (FIG. D & E)

•  For drilling in masonry, set the collar (3) to the hammer 

drilling position by aligning the symbol with the marking 

(14).

•  Slide the speed selector (5) towards the front of the tool 

(2nd gear).

Speed selector (FIG. E)

•  For drilling in steel and for screwdriving applications, 

slide the speed selector (5) towards the rear of the tool 

(1st gear).

•  For drilling in materials other than steel, slide the speed 

selector (5) towards the front of the tool (2nd gear).

Drilling/screwdriving

•  Select forward or reverse rotation using the 

forward/reverse slider (2).

•  To switch the tool on, press the switch (1). The tool 

speed depends on how far you press the switch.

•  To switch the tool off, release the switch.

LED work light

The LED work light (8) is activated automatically when the 

trigger is depressed. The LED work light will illuminate when 

the trigger is partially depressed, before the unit begins 

running.

State of charge indicator

The tool is fitted with a state of charge indicator. This can be 

used to display the current level of charge in the battery 

during use.

•  Press the state of charge indicator button (9).

Hints for optimum use

Drilling

•  Always apply a light pressure in a straight line with the 

drill bit.

•  Just before the drill tip breaks through the other side of 

the workpiece, decrease pressure on the tool.

•  Use a block of wood to back up workpieces that may 

splinter.

•  Use spade bits when drilling large diameter holes in 

wood.

•   Use HSS drill bits when drilling in metal.

•  Use masonry bits when drilling in soft masonry.

•  Use a lubricant when drilling metals other than cast iron 

and brass.

•  Make an indentation using a centre punch at the centre of 

the hole to be drilled in order to improve accuracy. 

Screwdriving

•  Always use the correct type and size of screwdriver bit.

•  If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small 

amount of washing liquid or soap as a lubricant.

•  Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straght line  

with the screw.
