Fit the screw on the point of the bit and place the point of the screw on the surface of the workpiece to be fastened. Apply pressure to the tool and start it. Withdraw the tool as soon as the clutch cuts in. Then release the switch trigger.

CAUTION:

When fitting the screw onto the point of the bit, be careful not to push in on the screw. If the screw is

pushed in, the clutch will engage and the screw will rotate suddenly. This could damage a workpiece or cause an injury.

Make sure that the bit is inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.
