The fastening torque can be adjusted in 16 steps by
turning the adjusting ring so that the graduations are
aligned with the arrow on the tool body. The fastening
torque is minimum when the number 1 is aligned with the
arrow, and maximum when the number 16 is aligned with
the arrow.
Before the 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.

to you or someone around you.
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip and the
other hand on the bottom of the battery cartridge to
