13. How to select tightening torque and rotational speed
CAUTION
ⅷ
The selection examples shown in Table 6 should be considered as general standard. As different types of
tightening screws and different materials to be tightened are used in actual works proper adjustments are
naturally necessary.
NOTE:
The use of the battery BSL1415X and BSL1815X in
a cold condition (below 0 degree Centigrade) can
sometimes result in the weakened tightening
torque and reduced amount of work. This,
however, is a temporary phenomenon, and returns
to normal when the battery warms up.
CAUTION
ⅷ
While operating the cordless driver drill, take care
not to lock the motor.
If the motor is locked, immediately turn the power
off.
If the motor is locked for a while, the motor or
battery will be burnt.
ⅷ
Do not tighten too strongly as the screw heads
will be damaged.
