A pawl pivoted on the inner sleeve has a tip radially displaceable between an inner blocking position engaging the body teeth and allowing rotation of the sleeve on the body only in the tightening direction and an outer freeing position clear of the body teeth and permitting rotation of the sleeve on the body in both of the directions. A spring urges the pawl into the inner blocking position.

Abstract: A drill is provided with a chuck that has an actuator device that is mounted to the housing of the drill and is spaced from the chuck so that a user can activate the chuck between a “chuck mode” and a “drill mode” from a switch mechanism that is mounted remotely from the chuck.
