5 Handling
The operation of the DEPRAG MINIMAT-Screwdriver is very simple. Grip the
Screwdriver as illustrated on the picture “
Connection of
a DEPRAG MINIMAT-
Screwdriver”
.
As soon as you put the bit onto the screw and slightly push the screwdriver
down, it will start running. After reaching the preset torque, the automatic
clutch will disengage and turn off the Screwdriver. The Screwdriver will be
ready for the next operation after lifting it off the screw.
Although the reaction torque you will notice is rather low due to the
ergonomically shaped handle and the immediate effect of the torque-out clutch,
we highly recommend to use an additional torque support, if torque is higher
than 5 Nm (such as a linear stand or lateral handle as per brochure D 3340 E).
The operating direction of reversible Screwdriver models can be reversed by
actuating the reverse button, in order to loosen tightened screws. Tool will also
start after pushing it down. The clutch will be locked in the reverse direction. An
increased reaction torque may occur in the case of screws are hard to tighten
(such as screws with defective thread). The reverse button can be locked by
turning.
