2. Slide the battery pack onto the charger until it clicks into place.
3. The charger's indicator light will show the charging status. Refer to the charger's specific instructions for light indications (e.g., red for charging, green for fully charged).
4. Once fully charged, remove the battery from the charger.

2. Installing and Removing the Battery Pack

1. To install: Align the battery pack with the base of the drill handle and slide it in until it locks securely into place with a click.
2. To remove: Press the battery release button (usually located on the front or sides of the battery pack) and slide the battery pack out of the tool.

3. Installing Drill Bits and Screwdriver Bits

The drill features a 1/2" keyless chuck for easy bit changes.

1. Ensure the drill is off and the forward/reverse switch is in the center (locked) position.
2. Grip the rear half of the chuck and rotate the front half counter-clockwise until the chuck jaws are open wide enough to insert the bit.
3. Insert the desired drill bit or screwdriver bit fully into the chuck.
4. Rotate the front half of the chuck clockwise to tighten the jaws firmly around the bit. Ensure the bit is centered and secure.
5. To remove a bit, reverse the process: rotate the front half counter-clockwise to loosen the jaws and pull the bit out.

Operating Instructions

1. Power On/Off and Variable Speed Trigger

The drill is activated by pressing the trigger switch. The speed of the drill is variable, controlled by how much you depress the trigger. Pressing lightly results in lower speed, while pressing fully results in maximum speed.

2. Mode Selection

Your drill offers three powerful modes, selected by rotating the collar behind the chuck:

• Drilling Mode (Drill Bit Icon): For drilling holes in wood, metal, and plastic. Provides up to 445 in-lbs of torque.
• Driving Mode (Screw Icon): For driving screws. Provides 0-445 in-lbs of torque, adjustable with the torque control collar.
• Hammer Mode (Hammer Icon): For drilling into masonry and concrete. Provides up to 445 in-lbs of torque with added hammering action.

Figure 4: The mode selection collar allows you to switch between Driving, Drilling, and Hammer modes for various applications.

3. Torque Control

The torque control collar allows you to adjust the amount of torque applied, preventing over-driving screws or damaging materials. Rotate the collar to select the desired torque setting (from 0 to 445 in-lbs). Lower numbers are for softer materials or smaller screws, higher numbers for harder materials or larger screws.

4. Speed Selection

The drill features a 2-speed transmission switch located on top of the tool:

• Low Speed (0-400 RPM): Ideal for high-torque applications like driving large screws or drilling large holes.
• High Speed (0-1500 RPM): Suitable for faster drilling in wood, metal, or for smaller screws.

Figure 5: The 2-speed transmission switch allows you to select between low speed (0-400 RPM) for high torque and high speed (0-1500 RPM) for faster drilling.

5. LED Work Light

A built-in LED light illuminates the work area when the trigger is pressed, improving visibility in dimly lit spaces.

6. Forward/Reverse Switch

The forward/reverse switch is located above the trigger. Push it to the left for forward rotation (drilling/driving) and to the right for reverse rotation (removing screws). When centered, the switch acts as a lock-off to prevent accidental starting.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your tool.

• Cleaning: Keep the tool's air vents clean and free of debris to prevent overheating. Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Battery Care: Store battery packs in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Do not store battery packs in a discharged state for extended periods.
