Does the drill itself have a Forward/Reverse Option?

Yes, the forward/reverse switch is a white push-through button above the trigger that reverses the polarity of the current going to the motor. You can park the button in its in-between position to effectively switch off the trigger.

It has reverse but to drill in reverse the drill bit has to be made for reverse drilling. If you mean that you can put it in reverse and extract screws, yes it does.

Yes there is some variation. If you initially press lightly, it goes somewhat slower than if you press the trigger all the way in. This is not a serious drill but works great for quick jobs. We really like it. It replaced a black and decker my son took to college and we dont miss it one bit.

No; those are purchased separately. You can adjust the drill for different types which is very convenient.

Yes and slow to fast in both directions depending on the strength you use to activate the drill.

Cannot say, my drill came to me weeks ago broken, the drivers bit would not turn called general tool,they said they would send me another one still have not received. So I could not recommend anything about the drill.Michael Rogers

Yes sir, this drill is reversible. As far as driving screws, the drill will do fine, but it doesn't have a clutch that can be set. Just be careful.

The forward dial switch is for the clutch setting, the back one switches from standard drill to hammer setting. So, yes you can turn it on or off. Best drill I've ever owned.

Yes, the pieces may be switched around. It took me a little longer the first time I set up the kit, as I needed to reverse left and right in my head as I followed directions. Assuming you're left-handed...you know the drill.

Yes it is reversible, the best drill I ever owned, it is, compact to fit tight places, and has a light to see in dark places, plus variable speed. For the price, you can't beat it.

No. However, this drill is not direct drive. The chuck shaft is mounted above the motor rotor and a gear drives the chuck shaft. It stops rotating quickly. I just finished a pair of oak cradles, each with 28 spindles and 40 screws. I used this drill to drill the 112 spindle and 80 screw holes with countersinks. The drilled performed flawlessly.

Yep. Two buttons - one for trigger hold and one for reverse. I've been really happy with this little drill.

no. but if the access panel on the right rear of the motor is removed, you'll see a red wire and a black one. don't mess with these. this motor is split phase, which means it can turn in either direction. that said, there are two connections which accept either a female spade-type disconnect, or wire ring type. these are the two leads in from the on/off switch. one lead per pole. to get the motor to turn in the desired direction, simply switch either of those leads on the poles. hope this helps.

Yes it is reversible. Has a clutch and 2 power/speed settings. It's a great drill. Battery seems to hold a long charge.

Yes this unit has a forward and reverse motion so that you can unscrew and screw flat head and phillip head screws. the motion switch is located on top of the power unit.

Yes! A bubble level for both horizontal and vertical is located on the top of the drill above the handle, well placed and useful as a result.

This is a very special bit, it is not part of the bit selection which comes with the drill. You can find it at http://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/71206916 (as an example, other places online would probably have them)
