Torque Control (Figure E)

E

This tool is fitted with a torque adjustment

collar (3) to select the operating mode and

 

to set the torque for tightening screws. Large

3

screws and hard workpiece materials require

a higher torque setting than small screws and

 

soft workpiece materials.

 

For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar to the drilling position symbol

For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting. If you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as follows:

Set the collar to the lowest torque setting.

Tighten the first screw.

If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is achieved, increase the collar setting and continue tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct setting. Use this setting for the remaining screws.
