Troubleshooting

Drill won't start

Check the battery connection and ensure the battery is charged. Verify the switch is engaged and the drill is not locked.

Drill lacks power

Ensure the battery is fully charged. Check the drill bit and make sure it is appropriate for the material you are drilling into. Consider using a higher power setting, if available. Ensure that the FlexVolt battery is properly installed.

E-Clutch activates frequently

Reduce the pressure applied while drilling. Ensure the drill bit is sharp and suitable for the material. If the problem persists, check for any obstructions or binding in the material.
