Adjusting fastening torque
When you wish to drive machine screws,
wood screws, hex bolts etc. with the pre-
determined torque, adjust the fastening
torque
as
follows.
The fastening torque may be adjusted by
turning the adjusting ring. Before turning
the adjusting ring, turn the locator in the
direction of the arrow
as
far
as
it
will go
without forcing. The torque
is
increased
by turning the adjusting ring in the direc-
tion of the arrow and decreased by turn-
ing
it
in the opposite direction. Align the
I
number
1
on the adjusting ring with the pointer on the gear housing. Drive
a
trial screw
into your material or
a
piece of duplicate material. If the fastening torque
is
not suitable
for the screw, continue adjusting until the proper torque
is
obtained.
CAUTION
:
The adjusting ring should be turned only within the numbered range.
It
should not be
forced beyond this range.
