The fastening torque can be adjusted in 21 steps by 
turning the adjusting ring so that its graduations are 
aligned with the pointer on the tool body. 
First, slide the action mode change lever to the position 
of 

 symbol. 

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 21. 
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.
