Installing hook
WARNIN G: Use the hanging/mounting parts for their intended purposes
only, e.g., hanging the tool on a tool belt between jobs or work intervals.
WARNING: Be careful not to overload the hook as too much force or
irregular overburden may cause damages to the tool resulting in personal
injury.
CAUTION: When installing the hook, always secure it with the screw
firmly. If not, the hook may come off from the tool and result in the personal
injury.
CAUTION: Make sure to hang the tool securely before releasing your hold.
Insufficient or unbalanced hooking may cause falling off and you may be
injured.
- Fig.12: 1. Groove
- 2. Hook
- 3. Screw
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool. This can be installed on either side of the tool. To install the hook, insert it into a groove in the tool housing on either side and then secure it with a screw. To remove, loosen the screw and then take it out.
Using hole
WARNING: Never use the hanging hole for unintended purpose, for instance, tethering the tool at high location. Bearing stress in a heavily loaded hole may cause damages to the hole, resulting in injuries to you or people around or below you.
- Fig.13: 1. Hanging hole
Use the hanging hole at the bottom rear of the tool to hang the tool on a wall using a hanging cord or similar strings.
OPERATION
CAUTION: Always insert the battery cartridge all the way until it locks
in place. If you can see the red indicator on the upper side of the button, it
is not locked completely. Insert it fully until the red indicator cannot be
seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you
or someone around you.
CAUTION: When the speed comes down extremely, reduce the load or stop the
tool to avoid the tool damage.
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip and the other hand on the
bottom of the battery cartridge to control the twisting action.
- Fig.14
Screwdriving operation
CAUTION: Adjust the adjusting ring to the proper torque level for your
work.
CAUTION: Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight in the screw
head, or the screw and/or driver bit may be damaged.
Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger as soon as the clutch cuts in. NOTE: When driving wood screw, pre-drill a pilot hole 2/3 the diameter of the screw. It makes driving easier and prevents splitting of the workpiece.
Drilling operation
First, turn the adjusting ring so that the arrow points to the marking. Then proceed as follows.
-
Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw makes drilling easier by pulling the drill bit into the workpiece. -
Drilling in metal
To prevent the drill bit from slipping when starting a hole, make an indentation with a center-punch and hammer at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the drill bit in the indentation and start drilling. Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
CAUTION: Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the drilling.
In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve to damage the tip of your
drill bit, decrease the tool performance and shorten the service life of the
tool.
CAUTION: Hold the tool firmly and exert care when the drill bit begins to
break through the workpiece. There is a tremendous force exerted on the
tool/drill bit at the time of hole break through.
CAUTION: A stuck drill bit can be removed simply by setting the reversing
switch to reverse rotation in order to back out. However, the tool may back
out abruptly if you do not hold it firmly.
CAUTION: Always secure workpieces in a vise or similar hold-down device.
CAUTION: If the tool is operated continuously until the battery cartridge
has discharged, allow the tool to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding with a
fresh battery.
