6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Powering On/Off and Variable Speed Control

The drill is activated by pressing the trigger switch. The speed is variable depending on how far the trigger is depressed. Releasing the trigger turns the drill off.

6.2 Adjusting Speed Settings

The drill has two speed settings (0-500rpm and 0-2000rpm) controlled by the speed selector switch located on top of the drill. Use the low speed for high torque applications (e.g., driving screws, drilling large holes) and the high speed for faster drilling with smaller bits.

6.3 Adjusting Torque Settings

The torque adjustment ring allows you to select from 22+1 torque settings. Rotate the ring to the desired setting. Lower settings are for driving small screws or working with soft materials, while higher settings are for larger screws or harder materials. The 'drill' symbol setting bypasses the clutch for maximum torque, suitable for drilling.

6.4 Using the Impact Function

For drilling into masonry or concrete, select the 'impact drill' mode using the mode selector. This engages the hammer mechanism, providing rapid impacts to assist in drilling hard materials.

6.5 LED Work Light and Battery Indicator

The integrated LED work light illuminates your workspace when the trigger is pressed. The LED battery power indicator on the battery pack shows the remaining charge level, helping you manage your work time effectively.
