Removable Belt Clip
Your tool is equipped with a removable belt clip
that can be positioned on the left side of the
tool for convenient transport (Fig. 9).
Install the belt clip onto the tool:
a. Remove the battery pack from the tool.
b. Align the rib of the belt clip with the threaded
hole on the base of the tool.
c. Insert the screw and securely tighten the
screw with a screwdriver.
Remove the belt clip from the tool:
d. Remove the battery pack from the tool.
e. Use a screwdriver to loosen the screw that
attaches the belt clip to the tool.
f. Remove the screw and the belt clip.
Drill Bits
Always inspect drill bits for excessive wear. Use only bits that are sharp and in good condition.
Twist Bits: Available with straight and reduced shanks for wood and light-duty metal drilling.
High-speed bits cut faster and last longer on hard materials.

WARNING
Always wear safety
goggles or safety glasses
with side shields during power tool
operation or when blowing dust. If the
operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
a. Check that the direction-of-rotation selector
is at the correct setting (forward or reverse).
b. Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or
with clamps to keep it from turning as the
drill bit rotates.
c. Hold the drill rmly and place the bit at the
point to be drilled.
d. Squeeze the trigger switch to start the drill
driver.
e. Move the drill driver bit into the workpiece, applying only enough pressure to keep the bit
“biting”. Do not force the drill driver or apply side pressure to elongate a hole. Let the tool
do the work.
f. When drilling hard, smooth surfaces, rst use a center punch to mark the desired location of
the hole. This will prevent the drill bit from slipping off-center as the hole is started.
g. When drilling metals, use light oil on the drill bit to keep it from overheating. The oil will
prolong the life of the bit and increase the drilling action.
