OPERATION

ADJUSTAbLE TORQUE CLUTCH 

(FIG. 10)

The torque clutch can be adjusted to any 
of 24 different settings (23 driving and 1 
drilling) . The higher the torque setting, the 
more force the cordless drill/driver produces 
to turn an object in either LO or HI rotation 
speed .

When using the cordless drill/driver for 
driving applications, it is necessary to 
increase or decrease the torque to help 
prevent the damage to screw heads, 
threads, work-piece, etc . Adjust the torque 
by rotating the torque-adjustment ring . The 
proper setting depends on the job and the 
type of bit, fastener, and material you will be 
using . 

In general, use greater torque for larger 
screws, but if the torque is too high, the 
screws may be damaged or broken . For 
delicate operations, such as removing a 
partially stripped screw, use a low torque 
setting . For operations such as drilling into 
hardwood, use a higher torque setting .

NOTICE:

 Do not change the torque setting 

when the tool is running .

NOTICE:

 When adjusting the torque ring, 

make sure that the speed switch is either 
completely in the LO or the HI position .

INSTALLING A bIT (FIG. 11)

1 .  Lock the trigger switch by placing the 

direction-of-rotation selector in the OFF 
(centre) position .

2 .  Rotate the chuck in the “OPEN” direction 

to release the jaws of the chuck on the 
bit .

3 .  Insert the drill bit .
4 .  Rotate the chuck in the “GRIP” direction 

to tighten the jaws of the chuck securely 
on the bit .

 WARNING:

 Do not hold the body 

of the chuck with one hand while using 
the power of the drill/driver to tighten 
the jaws of the chuck on the drill bit. The 
body of the chuck could slip in your hand, 
or your hand could slip and come into 
contact with the rotating bit. This could 
cause an accident and result in serious 
personal injury.

 WARNING:

 be sure to insert the 

drill bit straight into the jaws of the chuck. 
Do not tighten the jaws of the chuck with 
the drill bit inserted at an angle, as shown 
in Fig. 13a. Doing so could cause the drill 
bit to be thrown from the drill, which could 
result in possibly serious personal injury 
or damage to the chuck.
