OPERATION
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles or glasses with side shields.
Using Clutch (Fig. 3)
This tool has an adjustable clutch for driving different types of screws into different materials. When properly adjusted, the clutch will slip at a preset torque to prevent driving the screw too deep and to prevent damage to the screw or tool.
To adjust the clutch, turn the clutch adjusting ring to one of the twenty positions shown on the adjusting ring.
