  • Check that the on/off switch on the USB cable is in the 'ON' position.
  • Try a different USB power source or cable to rule out power supply issues.
• Drill bit is loose or falls out:
  • Ensure the collet is tightened sufficiently using the hex key.
  • Verify that the drill bit shank is fully inserted into the collet.
• Drill stops during operation or slows down significantly:
  • You may be applying too much pressure. Reduce pressure and allow the drill to work at its own pace.
  • The material might be too hard for the drill. Refer to the 'Operating Instructions' for compatible materials.
