CAUTION:
Always withdraw the tool from the workpiece before resuming operation. If the tool can- not be withdrawn, hold the tool firmly when turning on the tool, to overcome a strong reaction.
Adjusting the fastening torque | Pointer Drill marking | |
The fastening torque can be adjusted in six | ||
| ||
stages by turning the adjusting ring so that |
| |
the pointer on the adjusting ring points to a |
| |
number on the tool body. The fastening |
| |
torque is minimum when the pointer points |
| |
to the number 1 and maximum when it |
| |
points to |
| |
at varying torque levels when the pointer is |
| |
set at the numbers 1 to 5. The clutch is |
| |
designed not to slip at |
| |
Before actual operation, drive a trial screw |
|
into your material or a piece of duplicate
material to determine which torque level is required for a particular application.
NOTE:
The adjusting ring cannot be locked with the pointer positioned
Screwdriving operation
Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then increase the speed gradually. Release the trigger as soon as the clutch cuts in.
\\\
NOTE:
*Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged
*When driving wood screws, predrill pilot holes to make driving easier and to pre- vent splitting of the workpiece. See the chart.
