WARNING:

SWITCH

See Figure 2.

To turn your screwdriver ON, depress the switch trigger. Release switch trigger to turn your screwdriver OFF.

LOCK-ON BUTTON

See Figure 2.

Your screwdriver is equipped with a lock-on feature which is convenient when continuous driving of screws for extended periods of time is required. To lock-on, depress the switch trigger, push in and hold the lock-on button located on the side of the handle, then release switch trigger. Release lock-on button and your screwdriver will continue running.

To release the lock, depress the switch trigger and release.

If you have the lock-on feature engaged during use and your screwdriver becomes disconnected from power supply, disengage the lock-on feature immediately.

VARIABLE SPEED

See Figure 2.

Your screwdriver has a variable speed switch designed to allow operator control of speed and torque limits. The speed and torque of your screwdriver can be increased by depressing the switch trigger.

Note: Depress switch trigger all the way for maximum speed and torque of your screwdriver. Depress switch trigger only part of the way for less speed and torque.

Avoid running your screwdriver at low speeds for extended periods of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may cause your screwdriver to become overheated. If this occurs, cool your screwdriver by running it without a load and at full speed.
