Operating Instructions

Using the Cordless Drill

1. Power On/Off: Press the trigger switch to turn the drill on. Release the trigger to turn it off.
2. Speed Control: The drill features variable speed control. Press the trigger gently for slower speeds and apply more pressure for higher speeds.

Push it to the left for forward (clockwise) rotation and to the right for reverse (counter-clockwise) rotation. Ensure the switch is in the neutral (middle) position when not in use to prevent accidental starting.
4. Adjusting Torque Settings: Rotate the torque adjustment collar located behind the chuck to select the desired torque setting (1-15) or the drill mode (indicated by a drill icon). Lower settings are for driving small screws or working with soft materials, while higher settings are for larger screws or harder materials. The drill mode provides maximum torque for drilling.
5. Using the LED Light: The integrated LED light automatically activates when the trigger is pressed, illuminating your work area.
