Squeeze the trigger switch to turn
the tool “ON”. Release the trigger
switch to turn the tool “OFF”.
When drilling for extended
periods, the “Lock-On” switch
may be used, but do not use this
switch in situations where the drill
is likely to bind or kickback. If
kickback does occur, the sudden
motion of the tool may make it
difficult to release the “Lock-On”
switch and turn the drill off.

• Unplug the drill. Never
change bits on a live drill.
• Make sure the bit is
undamaged, sharp and
free from wood or metal
shavings. Foreign
material on the bit may keep the chuck from tightening
fully. A loose bit may cause injury.
• Push the bit into the chuck as far as it will go.
Always run the drill for one minute before drilling to make
sure the bit is properly seated. If the bit needs to be adjusted, unplug the drill
before touching the bit.

In certain situations, the bit may bind and the drill will kick-
back in the opposite direction. This sudden reaction could lead to loss of con-
trol and possible serious injury. Always be prepared for the possibility of kick-
back, especially when breaking through material to complete a hole.

• Make sure the bit is in the center of the chuck.
If the bit is off-center, it will not be held securely
and may fly loose during use causing serious
injury.
• Insert the chuck key into one of the three chuck
holes. Rotate the chuck key clockwise to lock the
bit in place.
• Remove the chuck key.
• Store the Chuck Key after each use in its holder
located at the power cord stem.
