Troubleshooting
Tool does not start
Ensure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Check if the battery contacts are clean. Verify that the tool is not locked out by the KickBack Control feature (release trigger and re-engage).
Reduced drilling power
Check battery charge level. Ensure the drill bit is sharp and not damaged. Verify that the ONECHUCK is correctly gripping the bit. Clean any debris from the chuck mechanism.
Excessive vibration
Ensure you are using the correct bit for the material and application. Check if the bit is properly seated in the chuck. Allow the Vibration Control system to function; avoid applying excessive force.
Kickback Control frequently engages
This indicates the drill bit is binding in the material. Apply steady, controlled pressure. Ensure you are using the correct bit size for the hole being drilled. Clear any obstructions from the hole.
