Reversing switch lever
CAUTION:
Always check the direction of
rotation before operation.
CAUTION:
Use the reversing switch only after
the tool comes to a complete stop.
Changing the direc-
tion of rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool.
CAUTION:
When not operating the tool, always
set the reversing switch lever to the neutral position.
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of rota-
tion. Depress the reversing switch lever from the A side for clock

wise rotation or from the B side for counterclockwise rotation.
When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral posi-
tion, the switch trigger cannot be pulled.

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.
Selecting the action mode
CAUTION:
Always set the ring correctly to
your desired mode mark. If you operate the tool
with the ring positioned halfway between the

Arrow
The fastening torque can be adjusted in 16 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 16.
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.
