4. If it is in tapping mode, shift the gearbox to
drilling mode by swinging the gear selector
tab out of the detent slot then shifting
upwards into drilling mode. Then pop the
selector tab back into the detent. It will usually
be necessary to grab the arbor and push the
spindle upwards while turning a little by hand
to get the selector to shift all the way up.
Only grab the Arbor when turning the spindle,
never the Quick-Release Collar. Otherwise, it
will be easy to accidentally release the arbor
and it will fall out. Follow the Twist drill &
annular cutter” symbol on the gear case. (The
small arrow on the tab will be pointing
downwards when it is shifted correctly).

twist drills only)".
