FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the
tool.
Switch action
CAUTION:
• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF”
position when released.
To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool speed is
increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger.
Release the switch trigger to stop. For continuous operation,
pull the switch trigger and then push in the lock button. To
stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger
fully, then release it.
Reversing switch action
CAUTION:
• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a
complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before
the tool stops may damage the tool.
• When you operate the tool in counterclockwise rotation,
the switch trigger is pulled only halfway and the tool runs
at half speed. For counterclockwise rotation, you cannot
push in the lock button.
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of
rotation. Move the reversing switch lever to the
position
(A side) for clockwise rotation or to the position (B side)
for counterclockwise rotation.
