Driving Depth (fi g. 3)
DW256/DW266
The depth sensitive feature offers the following
advantages:
– The selected driving depth is repeatable for
structural integrity.
– Screws with sealing washers are driven correctly
so that no leaks occur.
SETTING THE DRIVING DEPTH
The driving depth is determined by the position of
the depth locator (e) in relation to the bit or socket.
The symbols on the collar (d) indicate how to set the
driving depth.
• Turn the collar (d) clockwise to increase the
driving depth.
• Turn the collar (d) counterclockwise to decrease
the driving depth.
Using a Nutsetter
DW266
1. For screws with sealing washers, turn the collar
(d) until the end of the nutsetter is flush with the
end of the depth locator.
• If required, turn the collar until the nutsetter is
recessed approximately 2 mm into the depth
locator.
NOTE: ALWAYS refer to the screw
manufacturer’s specifications for the proper
sealing washer settings in different applications.
2. Drive a screw into a waste piece and check the
distance between the washer and the material.
3. Turn the collar (d) counterclockwise or clockwise
to decrease or increase the driving depth as
required.
4. Drive another screw and readjust the collar (d)
until the desired setting is achieved.
Depth Locator (fi g. 4)
DW266
This model is supplied with two depth locators (e) to
accommodate different bits, holders, sockets and
adaptors.
TO CHANGE DEPTH LOCATORS
• Pull the collar (d) assembly off the tool.
• Hold the depth locator (e) and unscrew the
collar (d).
• Replace the depth locator (e).
• To reassemble, proceed in reverse order.
Torque Adjustment Collar (fi g. 1)
DW268/DW269
This model allows setting the torque for a wide
range of screws.
• To increase the torque, turn the torque
adjustment collar (d) counterclockwise.
• To decrease the torque, turn the torque
adjustment collar (d) clockwise.
• Drive a screw into a waste piece and check if
the screw is properly fastened.
• If the clutch ratchets unexpectedly (for example
when a wood knot is encountered), simply
increase the pressure on the tool.
