OPERATION

SETTING DEPTH

See Figure 6.

The adjustable nosepiece of your tool will automatically drive screws to preset depths. Make preset depth adjustments as follows:

Unplug your screwdriver.

WARNING:

Failure to unplug your screwdriver could result in accidental starting causing serious injury.

Rotate adjusting sleeve until you obtain the desired depth for bit holder or screwdriver bit.

Test drive a screw in scrap material to determine if it is correct.

Adjust as necessary to increase or decrease the desired depth.

WARNING:

Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields when operating your screwdriver. Failure to do so could result in dust, shavings, loose particles or foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, causing possible serious injury.

DRIVING SCREWS

See Figures 7 and 8.

Depress and release the switch trigger to be sure your screwdriver is in OFF position before connecting it to power supply.

Check the direction of rotation lever for correct set- ting (forward or reverse). See Figure 4.

Secure the workpiece. Use clamps if necessary.

Plug your screwdriver into power supply source.

Depress the switch trigger to start your screwdriver. Do not lock the switch ON for jobs where your screw- driver may need to be stopped suddenly.

Hold your screwdriver firmly and place the bit and screw at the point to be driven.

Note: The bit holder is magnetized and will hold most commercial drywall screws.

Apply quick, snap action type pressure to the screwdriver bit. The pressure being applied to the screwdriver bit will engage the clutch and drive the screw. See Figures 7 and 8.

You will learn from practice and experience. We suggest that you begin each new job by driving several test screws in scrap material to check depth setting.
