OPERATION WARNING: Do not allow familiarity with products to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury. WARNING: Always remove battery pack from the tool when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning, or when not in use. Removing battery pack will prevent accidental starting that could cause serious personal injury. WARNING: Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible serious injury. APPLICATIONS You may use this product for the purposes listed below: Driving screws with screwdriver bits SWITCH TRIGGER See Figure 1, page 8. To turn the tool ON, depress the switch trigger. To turn it OFF, release the switch trigger and allow the chuck to come to a complete stop. NOTE: A whistling or ringing noise coming from the switch during use is a normal part of the switch function. DIRECTION OF ROTATION SELECTOR (FORWARD/REVERSE/FLASHLIGHT POSITION) See Figure 1 - 2, page 8. Set the direction of rotation selector in the Flashlight (center) position to prevent accidentally starting the tool. Move the direction of rotation selector upward for forward chuck rotation. Move the selector downward to reverse the direction. NOTE: The tool will not run unless the direction of rotation selector is pushed fully up or down. NOTICE: To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck to come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation. WARNING: Battery tools are always in operating condition. Place the direction of rotation selector in the Flashlight (center) position when not in use or carrying at your side, when installing or removing the battery pack, and when installing or removing bits. LED LIGHTS See Figure 3, page 8. The LED lights around the chuck will come on when the switch trigger is depressed. This provides additional lighting on the surface of the workpiece for operation in lower-light areas.

The battery pack will disconnect and be easy to remove. Do not attempt to use this product if the battery cap is not securely closed. TO LOAD/RELEASE BITS See Figure 5, page 8. The SPEEDLOAD +™ SYSTEM is a quick change chuck designed to accept any 1/4 in. hex bits. Insert the bit into the chuck and push as far as possible until the chuck locks onto the bit.
