the Trigger (10), helping to prevent the Drill from operating. The Forward/Reverse
Indicator (21) lights up, when the Trigger is depressed, to show which direction the

tor can cause the tool to twist.
Operate the Drill, by squeezing the Trigger (10). The speed of the Drill can be con- 12.
trolled by varying the pressure on the Trigger. The Variable Speed Drill Model 95849
also includes a second gear that makes it possible to drill at higher speeds.
If Drilling: 13.
Use the Drill torque setting, as described above.
Drill only as deep as necessary. Do not drill deeper than necessary into walls or other
areas where you cannot identify any possible hazards behind the drilling surface.
To reduce jamming as the Bit breaks through the workpiece, decrease the drilling
pressure when the point of the Bit breaks through the workpiece.
When you have drilled the hole, remove the Bit from the hole while the Cordless
Drill is still running. This prevents the Bit from getting caught in the hole and caus-
ing damage.

Start with a low torque setting.
If the clutch starts slipping before the screw is in all the way, stop the drill, put the
Rotation Button (9) in the center position and change the torque setting. Reset the
rotation direction before continuing.
If using Drill Hammer: 15.
Use the Hammer torque setting, as described above.
Use Hammer function of Cordless Drill carefully. Do not bore deeper into walls or
other materials than you can safely identify possible safety hazards.
Release the Trigger (10) to stop the Drill. Then, remove the Battery Pack, put the 16.
