GEAR SHIFTING
Your tool is equipped with two separate gear
ranges, low gear and high gear. Low gear
provides high-torque and slower drilling
speeds for heavy duty work or for driving
screws. High gear provides faster speeds for
drilling lighter work. To change speeds slide

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.
ADJUSTABLE CLUTCH
Your tool features 26 clutch settings. Output
torque will increase as the clutch ring, is
rotated from 1 to 25. The drill "

to be changed quickly and easily in the
keyless chuck (Fig. 6).
