OPERATION
SCREWDRIVING TORQUE ADJUSTMENT
(DRIVING POWER OF THE DRILL-DRIVER)
See Figure 13.
When using the drill-driver for various driving applications,
it becomes necessary to increase or decrease the torque
in order to help prevent the possibility of damaging screw
heads, threads, workpiece, etc. In general, torque intensity
should correspond to the screw diameter. If the torque is
too high or the screws too small, the screws may be dam-
aged or broken.
The torque is adjusted by rotating the torque adjustment
ring.
The torque is greater when the torque adjustment ring is
set on a higher setting. The torque is less when the torque
adjustment ring is set on a lower setting.
The proper setting depends on the type of material and the
size of screw you are using.
TO ADJUST TORQUE
�n Identify the twenty four torque indicator settings located
on the front of the drill.
n Rotate adjustment ring to the desired setting.
• 1 - 4 For driving small screws
• 5 - 8 For driving screws into soft material
• 9 - 12 For driving screws into soft and hard
materials
• 13 - 16 For driving screws in hard wood
• 17 - 20 For driving large screws
• 21 - For heavy drilling
