The Drill is designed to accept up to 3/8” 

1. 

standard drill bits. Do not use  larger drill

5 are for driving screws, bolts and 
nuts.

It is recommended that a very low 

• 

torque setting be used when first 

driving a screw, and adjust the 
setting as the proper force required is 
determined.

The torque setting required depends 

• 

on the item being driven. In the case of 

screws, consider the size, length, and 

type of material.

If a pilot hole has been drilled into the 

• 

material, a lower torque setting will be 
required.

In addition to single or double-ended 

c. 

screwdriver bits, adapters with 
hexagonal shafts with matching socket 
heads can also be used.

Fix the torque setting low enough to 

• 

allow a safety margin.

that it clicks into place securely. Be sure 
the Battery Pack (11) is securely seated
