SWITCH ACTION (FIG.
4)
CAUTION
Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the “OFF” position when
released.
To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Release the
switch trigger to stop.
Reversing switch action (Fig.
5)
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction
of rotation. Depress the reversing switch lever from the
side for clockwise rotation or from the side for
counterclockwise rotation.
When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral
position, the switch trigger cannot be pulled.
Pulling the switch trigger rotates the motor, but the bit
does not rotate. The bit rotates and tightens a screw
when the tip of the bit is pressed against the groove on
the screw head.
CAUTION
○ Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
○ Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to
a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation
before the tool stops may damage the tool.
○ When not operating the tool, always set the reversing
switch lever to the neutral position.
ADJUSTING THE SCREW LENGTH AND
SCREW-IN DEPTH
1. Set the screw length (Fig.
6)
Set the screw length on this unit by sliding the guide
block.
(1) Slide the guide block while holding down the lever and
align the arrow on the guide block with the number on
the stopper to match the screw length.
(2) Find the screw length and screw guide position by
checking the table below.
STOPPER NUMBER
SCREW LENGTH
28
25 – 28 mm
32
32 – 35 mm
41
38 – 41 mm
2. Adjust the screw-in depth (Fig.
7)
Adjust the screw-in depth on this unit by turning the
depth adjuster knob.
(1) Press the slider all the way in to the slider case.
Then rotate the depth adjuster knob so that the bit tip
protrudes about 5 mm.
(2) Try driving a screw and make fine adjustments as
needed. To make the fine adjustment, rotate towards A
(counterclockwise) if the screw head is too high after
screw-in. If the screw head is too low after screw-in,
then rotate towards B (clockwise).
INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE SCREW
STRIP
1. Install (Fig.
8)
(1) Insert the tip of the linked screw strip into the belt guide
groove (A section).
(2) Insert the tip of the tape into the slider groove (B section)
and press inwards in the arrow direction.
(3) Set so the screw on the strip is just prior (1 screw width)
to the screw-in position (
Fig.
9
,
Fig.
10)
.
CAUTION
Set the screw strip securely inside. If not set securely,
the bit might scratch the board surface (low feed
pressure) or the screw might be wasted (too much feed
pressure).
2. Removal (Fig.
11)
(1) If you run out of screws on the tape or want to remove a
screw strip during a job, pull in the direction of the arrow
as shown in the figure to remove.
(2) You can return the screw strip in the opposite direction
by pressing the reverse button.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE BIT
CAUTION
To prevent the chance of an accident, always turn off
the power switch and remove the battery from the body.
NOTE
When replacing the bit be sure to install it securely so it
will not come loose or fall out later.
1. Removing the screw strip attachment
Grip the unit securely with one hand. With your other
hand, rotate the screw strip attachment in the direction
of the arrow in
Fig.
12
. Next pull in the direction of the
arrow in
Fig.
13
and remove.
NOTE
This will be hard to remove if the lath or plaster powder
attaches near the attachment slot. Clean this section
carefully to prevent the lath or plaster powder from
adhering here.
2. Attaching and removing the bit (Fig.
14)
No bits other than plus driver (Phillips) bits (No. 2,
136 mm long) can be used for screw strip tightening jobs.
Attach the bits securely using the following procedure.
Move the guide sleeve to the top edge, feed the bit into
hexagonal hole on the anvil and then release the guide
sleeve.
To remove, perform the above procedure in reverse
order.
NOTE
The bit was not installed correctly (securely) if the
guide sleeve will not return to its original position. Keep
inserting the bit inside the hexagonal socket head hole
until it makes contact.
3. Installing the screw strip attachment
Install using the steps in “1. Removing the screw strip
attachment” in reverse order.
HOW TO USE
CAUTION
Always use safety goggles during the work.
Adjust the rotation direction to the clockwise .
1. How to operate
Press the unit straight up against the work and pull the
switch trigger to automatically feed and tighten the
screws (
Fig.
15
).
NOTE
○ Place this unit straight up against the work during
screw-tightening. Using the unit while at an angle
to the work might damage the screw head or cause
bit wear. Also the proper tightening torque will not be
transmitted to the screw and might cause the screw to
seat improperly.
○ Press firmly on the unit until the screw tightening is
complete. Loosening the pushing pressure on the unit
might cause the screw to seat improperly.
○ When driving the screw, avoid hitting the unit as
pushing in.
This could prevent the screw from being sent normally.
