Adjusting the fastening torque
The fastening torque can be adjusted in 17 steps by turn-
ing the adjusting ring so that its graduations are aligned
with the pointer on the tool body. The fastening torque is
minimum when the number 1 is aligned with the pointer,
and maximum when the marking is aligned with the
pointer.
The clutch will slip at various torque levels when set at
the number 1 to 16. The clutch is designed not to slip at
the marking.
Before actual operation, drive a trial screw into your
material or a piece of duplicate material to determine
which torque level is required for a particular application.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before carrying out
any work on the tool.
Installing or removing driver bit or drill bit
Turn the sleeve counterclockwise to open the chuck jaws.
Place the bit in the chuck as far as it will go. Turn the
sleeve clockwise to tighten the chuck.
To remove the bit, turn the sleeve counterclockwise.
Installing bit holder (Optional accessory)
Fit the bit holder into the protrusion at the tool foot on
eithher right or left side and secure it with a screw.
When not using the driver bit, keep it in the bit holders.
Bits 45 mm (1-3/4) long can be kept there.
Hook (Optional accessory)
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
This can be installed on either side of the tool.

OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always insert the battery cartridge all the way until
it locks in place. If you can see the red part on the
upper side of the button, it is not locked completely.
Insert it fully until the red part cannot be seen. If
not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing
injury to you or someone around you.
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip and the
other hand on the bottom of the battery cartridge to con-
trol the twisting action.
