KEYLESS CHUCK - FIGURE H
WARNING: Make certain the lock-off
button is engaged to prevent switch actuation
before installing or removing accessories.
To insert a drill bit or other accessory:
1. Grasp the chuck (5) and rotate it in the
counterclockwise direction, as viewed
from the chuck end.
2. Insert the bit or other accessory fully into
the chuck, and tighten securely by
rotating the chuck in the clockwise
direction as viewed from the chuck end.
WARNING: Do not attempt to tighten
drill bits (or any other accessory) by gripping
the front part of the chuck and turning the tool on. Damage to the chuck and personal
injury may occur when changing accessories.
SCREW DRIVING
For driving fasteners, the reversing button should be pushed to the left. Use reverse
(button pushed to the right) for removing fasteners. When moving from forward to
reverse, or vice versa, always release the trigger switch first.
ON BOARD BIT STORAGE
A magnetic bit storage slot (6) is built-in to the area on the top of the tool.
BELT CLIP
A belt clip (10) is provided which can be switched to either side of the tool.
DRILLING
• Use sharp drill bits only.
• Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
• Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
• Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.
• Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole is started enough to keep
the drill bit from slipping out of it.
• Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep the bit biting
but not so much as to stall the motor or deflect the bit.
• Hold the drill firmly with one hand on the grip and the other hand on the bottom of the
tool to control its twisting action.
• DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF A STALLED DRILL OFF AND ON IN AN
ATTEMPT TO START IT. DAMAGE TO THE DRILL CAN RESULT.
• Minimize stalling on breakthrough by reducing pressure and slowly drilling through the
last part of the hole.
• Keep the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled hole. This will help reduce
jamming.
• Make sure switch turns drill on and off.
DRILLING IN WOOD
Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drill bits used for metal or with spade
bits. These bits should be sharp and should be pulled out frequently when drilling to
clear chips from the flutes.
DRILLING IN METAL
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are cast iron and brass which
should be drilled dry. The cutting lubricants that work best are sulfurized cutting oil or lard oil.
THE RBRC™ SEAL
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation) Seal on the
lithium-ion battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the
battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by
PORTER-CABLE.
RBRC™ in cooperation with PORTER-CABLE and other battery users, has established
programs in the United States to facilitate the collection of spent lithium-ion batteries.
