To change the speed, switch off the tool first. Select 

the "2" side 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 "2", slide the lever to the "1" and restart 

the operation.

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 21 levels by turning the adjusting ring. Align the graduations with the arrow 

on the tool body. You can get the minimum fastening torque at 1 and maximum torque at 

marking.

The clutch will slip at various torque levels when set at the number 1 to 20. 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 application.  

The following shows the rough guide of the relationship between the screw size and graduation.
