OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Removing or installing locator assembly
(Fig. 1)
To remove the locator assembly, pull the locking
sleeve forward and then turn it counterclockwise. To
install the locator assembly, screw it clockwise and
then push the locking sleeve back in lightly toward the
motor. Turn the locking sleeve slightly to match the
locking positions and then push in firmly to lock the
locator in place.
Removing or installing bit (Fig.2)
Important:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before removing or installing the bit.
After removing the locator assembly, pull firmly to
remove the magnetic bit holder. Hold the magnetic bit
holder in your hand and grasp the bit with a pair of
pliers. Pull the bit out of the magnetic bit holder.
Sometimes, it helps to wiggle the bit with the pliers as
you pull. To install the bit, follow the removal proce-
dures in reverse.
Depth adjustment (Fig.3,4 &5)
Pull the locking sleeve forward and then turn it to
adjust the depth.
Initially, adjust the locator assembly to create a dis-
tance of approximately 1mm from the tip of the loca-
tor to the base of the screw head. One full turn of the
locator equals 1.5mm change in depth. After adjust-
ing the locator assembly, push the locking sleeve in to
lock the locator in place. Drive a trial screw into your
material or a piece of duplicate material. If the depth
is not suitable for the screw, continue adjusting until
the proper depth setting is obtained.
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.
For Model 6800DB, 6801DB (Fig.6)
To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Release the
trigger to stop. For continuous operation, pull the trig-
ger and then push in the lock button. To stop the tool
from the locked position, pull the trigger fully, then
release it.
For Model 6800DBV, 6801DBV (Fig.7)
To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Tool speed is
increased by increasing pressure on the trigger.
Release the trigger to stop. For continuous operation,
pull the trigger and then push in the lock button. To
stop the tool from the locked position, pull the trigger
fully, then release it. A speed control screw is pro-
vided so that maximum tool speed can be limited
(variable). Turn the speed control screw clockwise for
higher speed, and counterclockwise for lower speed.
