7.Confirm the clutch dial position (see Fig. 20).

The tightening torque of this unit can be adjusted according to the clutch dial position, at which the clutch dial is set.

(1)When using this unit as a screwdriver, line up the one of the numbers “1, 3, 5 ... 22” on the clutch dial, or the black dot, with the triangle mark on the outer body.

(2)When using this unit as a drill, line up the clutch dial drill mark “” with the triangle mark on the outer body.

CAUTION:

￿The clutch dial cannot be set between the numbers “1, 3, 5 ... 22” or the black dot.

￿Do not use with the clutch dial set at the line between the number “22” and the drill mark “”. Doing so may cause damage (See Fig. 21).

(1)Tightening torque

Tightening torque should correspond in its intensity to the screw diameter. When too strong power is used, the screw head may be broken or be injured.

Be sure to adjust the clutch dial position according to the screw diameter.

(2)Tightening torque indication (See Fig. 20)

The tightening torque differs depending on the type of screw and the material being tightened.

The unit indicates the tightening torque with the numbers “1, 3, 5 ... 22” on the clutch dial, and a dot. The tightening torque at position “1” is the weakest and the torque is strongest at the highest number.

(3)Adjusting the tightening torque (See Fig. 20)

Rotate the clutch dial and line up the numbers “1, 3, 5, ... 22” on the clutch dial, or the dot, with the triangle mark on the outer body. Adjust the clutch dial in the weak or the strong torque direction according to the torque you need.
