WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WORK AREA

• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.

• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
  ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
  PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.

• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

• Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

TOOL USE AND CARE

• Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the work piece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should also be avoided.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.

Installing and Removing the Battery Pack from the Tool

1. To install battery pack: Insert audible click is heard. (Fig. A)

2. To remove battery pack:
   Depress the battery release button as shown (2) in Fig. A and pull battery pack out of tool.

FUEL GAUGE
KIMO cordless drill includes a fuel gauge which consists of three LED lights that indicate the level of charge remaining in the battery pack. The fuel gauge is an indication of approximate levels of charge remaining in the battery pack according to the following indicators:

Using the Forward/Reverse Control Button

A forward/reverse button 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).

To select reverse, depress the forward/reverse control button (2) on the opposite. (Fig. B)
NOTE: The center position of the control button (2) locks the tool in the off position. When changing be sure the trigger ( 1) is released.

Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed

To turn ON and OFF the tool, pull and release the trigger switch (1 ).
NOTE: An LED is turned on when the switch is pulled.
To vary the driving speed, increase or decrease pressure on the switch. The farther the trigger is depressed, the higher the speed of the drill.
To stop the tool, release the switch.
To lock the tool, depress the forward/reverse control button (2) to the center position, until an audible click is heard.

WARNING! Always lock the trigger switch or remove the battery pack before performing maintenance, changing accessories, storing the tool and any time the tool is not in use.

Controlling Torque

Adjustment collar (3) 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. (Fig. C)

Selecting Mode
The Mode Selecting Collar(8) allows the tool to be set for various drilling/hammer drilling and driving applications. Rotate the Mode Selecting Collar right or left depending on the below applications

Driving action: The driving position allows operation of adjustable clutch for driving screws and running nuts and bolts.

Drill only action: For drilling in woods, metals, plastics or other non concrete materials. The drill position overrides the clutch for drilling.

Drill with hammer action: For drilling in concrete, asphalt, tile or other similar hard materials. The hammer drill position overrides the clutch for hammer drilling.

Gear Shifting

Your tool is equipped with two separate gear ranges(9), low gear and high gear. Low gear (when mark 1 is shown on the gear) provides high-torque and slower drilling speeds for heavy duty work or for driving screws. High gear(when mark 2 is shown on the gear) provides faster speeds for drilling lighter work. To change speeds slide switch, to the high or low position.

ATTENTION: If your tool appears to be running, but the chuck will not turn, check to make sure the gear shifting switch is pushed fully into desired setting.

Attaching and Removing Accessories

To insert a drill bit or other accessory: (1 ). Grasp the rear half of the chuck (4) with one hand and use your other hand to rotate the front half (4a) in the counterclockwise direction, as viewed the chuck end. (Fig. D)

(2). Insert the bit or other accessory fully into the chuck, and tighten securely by holding the rear half of the chuck and rotating the front portion in the clockwise as viewed from the chuck end.(Fig. D)

WARNING! Do not attempt to tighten drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping the front part of the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal injury may occur when changing accessories.
