Unpacking

Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely

that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is

missing. If you find anything wrong, do not operate the

tool until the parts have been replaced or the fault has

been rectified. Failure to do so could result in serious

personal injury.

Auxiliary handle and depth gauge

1. Turn the auxiliary handle (2)

anti-clockwise to loosen the

collar and slip it over the chuck

onto the drill.

2. Insert the depth gauge (3)

in the hole at the top of the

handle (2).

3. The auxiliary handle (2) can

swivel 360° for the most

comfortable position and

easiest operation.

4. The depth gauge (3) helps keep

an accurate depth when drilling

holes to a set depth.

5. To change the position of the

depth gauge (3), turn the

handle (2) grip anti-clockwise

until the depth gauge is loose

enough to slide through the

hole.

6. Set the depth, checking the

depth with a steel rule for

most accurate measurement

and then turn the handle grip

clockwise to tighten both the

depth stop and the auxiliary

handle in the

required position.

Installing and removing bits

CAUTION.

Always ensure that the drill is switched off and

plug is removed from the power point before making any

adjustments.
1. The drill features a keyless chuck (1) and spindle lock

button (9) for greater convenience of use.

2. To insert a drill bit or other

accessory, press the spindle

lock button (9) with one

hand and use your other

hand to rotate the chuck

(1) anti-clockwise. Rotate it

sufficiently for the chuck to

open far enough to accept

the bit or accessory.

3. Fully insert the bit or accessory into the chuck (1) and

tighten securely by rotating the chuck clockwise with

one hand whilst holding the spindle lock button (9)

pressed with the other hand.

WARNING.

Do not attempt to tighten the chuck by

gripping the front part and turning the drill on. Damage

to the tool and personal injury may result. Be sure to

tighten the chuck with the spindle lock button held

pressed to achieve maximum tightness.
