ADJUSTABLE TORQUE CLUTCH

(Tightening Power of Your Screwdriver)

See Figure 7.

When using your screwdriver for various driving applications, it becomes necessary to increase or decrease the power and torque in order to help prevent the possibilityof damaging screwheads, threads, workpiece, etc. In general, power and torque should correspond to the difficultyof the screw to be driven. If torque is too high the screws may be damaged or broken.

Note: Yourscrewdriver has been shipped with the adjustable torque clutch set at the lowest torque setting.

SPEED LOCK COLLET

A convenient feature on your screwdriver is the speed lock collet. This feature locks the bit in the collet

preventing it from falling out,

Note: The collet has been designed to accept 1/4 in, hex drill bits and 1/4 in, hex power drive screwdriver bits. See Figure 6.

TO ADJUST TORQUE

See Figure7,

•Locate arrow on torque adjustment cap.

•To increase torque, rotate torque adjustment cap in the direction of the arrow. When cap stops rotating, you have reached the highest torque setting. To decrease torque, rotate torque adjust- ment cap in the oppositedirection of the arrow. When cap stops rotating, you have reached the lowest torque setting.

Note: Remember the two speed feature (HI-LO) when settingtorque. The amount of torque will vary depending on which speed setting you have your screwdriver. Switching to LO speed will increase torque and switchingto HI speed will decrease torque.
