To change the speed, switch off the tool first. Push
the speed change lever to display "2" for high speed
or "1" for low speed but high torque. Be sure that the
speed change lever is set to the correct position before
operation.
If the tool speed is coming down extremely during the
operation with display "2", push the lever to display "1"
and restart the operation.

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 22 levels by
turning the adjusting ring. Align the graduations with the
arrow on the tool body. You can get the minimum fas
-
tening torque at 1 and maximum torque at
marking.
The clutch will slip at various torque levels when set at the
number 1 to 21. The clutch does not work 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 applica-
tion.
The following shows the rough guide of the relationship
between the screw size and graduation.

Installing hook
WARNING:
Use the hanging/mounting parts
for their intended purposes only, e.g., hanging the
tool on a tool belt between jobs or work intervals.
WARNING:
Be careful not to overload the
hook as too much force or irregular overburden
may cause damages to the tool resulting in per-
sonal injury.
CAUTION:
When installing the hook, always
secure it with the screw firmly.
If not, the hook
may come off from the tool and result in the personal
injury.
CAUTION:
Make sure to hang the tool
securely before releasing your hold.
Insufficient
or unbalanced hooking may cause falling off and you
may be injured.

Screw
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
This can be installed on either side of the tool. To install
the hook, insert it into a groove in the tool housing on
either side and then secure it with a screw. To remove,
loosen the screw and then take it out.
Using hole
WARNING:
Never use the hanging hole for
unintended purpose, for instance, tethering the
tool at high location.
Bearing stress in a heavily
loaded hole may cause damages to the hole, result
-
ing in injuries to you or people around or below you.

Hanging hole
Use the hanging hole at the bottom rear of the tool to
hang the tool on a wall using a hanging cord or similar
