008688 

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction 
of rotation. Depress the reversing switch lever from the A 
side for clockwise rotation or from the B side for 
counterclockwise rotation. 
When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral position, 
the switch trigger cannot be pulled. 

 

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.

To change the speed, first switch off the tool and then 
slide the speed change lever to the "2" side for high 
speed or "1" side for low speed. Be sure that the speed 
change lever is set to the correct position before 
operation. Use the right speed for your job. 

 

CAUTION: 

• 

Always set the speed change lever fully to the 
correct position. If you operate the tool with the 
speed change lever positioned halfway between 
the "1" side and "2" side, the tool may be 
damaged. 

• 

Do not use the speed change lever while the tool is 
running. The tool may be damaged.

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 17 steps by 
turning 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. 

 

NOTE: 

• 

The adjusting ring does not lock when the pointer 
is positioned only halfway between the 
graduations. 

 

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.
