4. Safety Instructions

Always follow basic safety precautions when using power tools to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.

• Work Area Safety: Keep your work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
• Electrical Safety: Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
• Personal Safety: Always wear eye protection (safety goggles included). Use hearing protection when operating the tool for extended periods. Dress properly; avoid loose clothing or jewelry that can get caught in moving parts.
• Tool Use and Care: Do not force the power tool. Use the correct tool for your application. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to a power source, picking up, or carrying the tool.
• Battery Use and Care: Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. Do not disassemble the battery pack. Do not short-circuit the battery pack.
• Maintenance: Disconnect the battery pack from the tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Power On/Off and Variable Speed Trigger

• To turn on the drill, press the variable speed trigger. The speed of the drill increases as you apply more pressure to the trigger.
• To turn off, release the trigger.

6.2 Forward/Reverse Switch

• The forward/reverse switch is located above the trigger.
• Push the switch to the left for forward rotation (for drilling and driving screws).
• Push the switch to the right for reverse rotation (for removing screws).
• When the switch is in the center position, the trigger is locked, preventing accidental operation.

6.3 Torque Settings (24+1 Position Clutch)

• The torque adjustment ring allows you to select the amount of torque applied. Settings range from 1 (minimum torque) to 24 (maximum torque).
• The drill icon (next to 24) is for drilling mode, which provides full torque without clutch action.
• Choose a lower torque setting for smaller screws or softer materials to prevent over-driving or stripping.
• Use higher torque settings for larger screws or harder materials.

6.4 2-Speed Gear Selector

• The gear selector switch is located on top of the drill.
• Position '1' (low speed, 0-450 RPM) is ideal for high-torque applications like driving screws or drilling large holes.
• Position '2' (high speed, 0-1500 RPM) is suitable for fast drilling in softer materials or when less torque is required.

6.5 LED Work Light

• The integrated LED light automatically activates when the trigger is pressed.
• It provides illumination for working in dimly lit areas or confined spaces, improving visibility and accuracy.

6.6 Flexible Shaft Usage

• The flexible shaft accessory allows you to reach screws or drilling points in awkward or tight angles where the drill itself cannot fit.
• Simply insert the flexible shaft into the drill's chuck and secure it. Then, insert your desired screwdriver or drill bit into the other end of the flexible shaft.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your GardenJoy drill.

• Cleaning: After each use, wipe down the drill with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Keep the ventilation openings clear of dust and debris.
• Storage: Store the drill and its accessories in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure the battery is removed from the drill before storage.
• Battery Care: For long-term storage, charge the battery to approximately 50% capacity. Recharge the battery every 3-6 months if not in use to maintain its health.
• Chuck Maintenance: Periodically check the chuck for any debris or wear. Clean the jaws if necessary to ensure proper bit gripping.
