Manual

3. To use the driving screws mode

rotate the torque selector collar

until the desired clutch setting ap-

pears in line with the arrow.

The adjustable clutch, when prop-

erly adjusted, will slip at a preset

torque to prevent driving the screw too deep into

di󰀨erent materials and to prevent damage to the

screw or tool.

The torque specications shown here are approximate

values obtained with a fully charged battery pack.

Selecting Speed

The speed selector is on top of the motor housing.

Allow the tool to come to a complete stop before

changing speeds. See “Applications” for recom-

mended speeds under various conditions.

1. For Low speed, push the speed selector to display

“1”.

2. For High speed, push the speed selector to display

“2”.

Using the Control Switch

The control switch may be set to three positions:

forward, reverse and lock. Due to a lockout mecha-

nism, the control switch can only be adjusted when

the ON/OFF switch is not pressed. Always allow the

motor to come to a complete stop before using the

control switch.

For forward (clockwise) rotation, push in the control

switch

from the right side of the tool. Check the

direction of rotation before use.

For reverse (counterclockwise) rotation, push in the

control switch

from the left side of the tool. Check

direction of rotation before use.

To lock the trigger, push the control switch to the

center position. The trigger will not work while the

control switch is in the center locked position. Always

lock the trigger or remove the battery pack before

performing maintenance, changing accessories,

storing the tool and any time the tool is not in use.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury, always

hold or brace securely.

Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed

1. To start the tool, grasp the handle(s) rmly and

pull the trigger.

NOTE: An LED is turned on when the trigger is

pulled and will go o󰀨 shortly after the trigger is

released.

2. To vary the speed, increase or decrease the pres-

sure on the trigger. The further the trigger is pulled,

the greater the speed.

ASSEMBLY

WARNING

Recharge only with the charger

specied for the battery. For spe-

cic charging instructions, read the operator’s

manual supplied with your charger and battery.

Removing/Inserting the Battery

To remove the battery, push in the release buttons

and pull the battery pack away from the tool.

WARNING

Always lock the trigger or remove

the battery pack any time the tool

is not in use.

To insert the battery, slide the pack into the body

of the tool. Make sure it latches securely into place.

WARNING

Always remove battery pack before

changing or removing accesso-

ries. Only use accessories specically recom-

mended for this tool. Others may be hazardous.

Installing Bits

Always remove the battery before inserting or remov-

ing bits. Select the proper style and size bit for the job.

This tool is equipped with a spindle lock. The chuck

can be tightened with one hand, creating higher grip

strengths on the bit.

1. To open the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the

counterclockwise direction.

When using drill bits, allow the bit to strike the

bottom of the chuck. Center the bit in the chuck

jaws and lift it about 1/16" o󰀨 of the bottom.

When using screwdriver bits, insert the bit far

enough for the chuck jaws to grip the hex of the bit.

2. To close the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the

clockwise direction. The bit is secure when the

chuck makes a ratcheting sound and the sleeve

cannot be rotated any further.

3. To remove the bit, turn the sleeve in the counter-

clockwise direction.

NOTE: A ratcheting sound may be heard when the

chuck is opened or closed. This noise is part of the

locking feature, and does not indicate a problem with

the chuck’s operation.

OPERATION

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury, always

wear proper eye protection marked

to comply with ANSI Z87.1.

When working in dusty situations, wear appro-

priate respiratory protection or use an OSHA

compliant dust extraction solution.

Selecting Hammer, Drill or Drive Action

1. To use the hammer-drilling mode

(3602-20 only), rotate the torque

selector collar until the hammer

symbol

appears in line with the

arrow. Apply pressure to the bit to

engage the hammering mecha-

nism.

NOTE: When using carbide bits, do not use water

to settle dust. Do not attempt to drill through steel

reinforcing rods. This will damage the carbide bits.

2. To use the drilling only mode

(3601-20 only), rotate the torque

selector collar until the drill symbol

appears in line with the arrow.

NOTE: The number selected on the

torque selector collar has no e󰀨ect on

operation of the drill in drilling mode.

I keep stripping the screw head when using the drill-driver. Why is that? Verified

Most drill-drivers can be set to screw harder or softer. If the head keeps being stripped, the drill-driver should probably be put into a different setting. When it is a wireless device, always be sure the battery is charged for an optimal result.

Do I need to wear hearing protection when using a drill? Verified

Yes you should. Although the amount of noise produced by a drill can vary between brands and models, long term exposure to loud noise can cause permanent hearing damage. That is why it is a good idea to wear hearing protection.

Can I store power tools in a shed or garage? Verified

In general, you can store power tools in a shed or garage, even if it sometimes freezes there. However, it is better for the lifespan of the power tool to store it in a dry place without major temperature fluctuations. In a shed or garage, differences in temperature can cause condensation to form, which can cause rust. In addition, tools that run on batteries last shorter and do not charge as well at very low temperatures. To be sure how your power tool needs to be stored, always thoroughly read the user manual.
