Bits provided with the drill can be placed in the storage area,

(FORWARD/REVERSE/CENTER LOCK)
Your drill has a direction of rotation (forward/reverse/center
lock) selector located above the switch trigger for changing

accidental starting when not in use.

ring can be turned to select the right amount of torque for

LO (1) or HI (2) speeds. A slide switch is located on top
of your drill for selecting either LO (1) or HI (2) speed.
