The variable speed switch (9) can be locked off by pushing the forward/reverse
selector (4) into the middle of both forward and reverse positions.
WARNIING!
Do not change direction of rotation while the keyless chuck (1)
is in motion.
Torque Settings (Tightening power of your drill)
When using your drill for various driving applications, it becomes necessary to
increase and decrease the power and torque in order to prevent the possibility of
damaging screw heads, threads, work pieces, etc.
In general, power and torque should correspond to the difficulty of the screw to be
driven. If torque is too high, the screw heads or threads can be damaged or broken.
To Adjust Torque
•
Locate the arrow on the front of the drill
housing (see Fig. 6).
•
Identify the torque settings and 1 drill setting
on the torque adjustment collar (2).
•
Rotate the torque adjustment collar (2) to the
desired setting, aligning the required number
on the torque adjustment collar (2) with the
arrow on the drill housing.
•
To increase or decrease torque, rotate the torque adjustment collar (2). The lower
the number, the lower the torque setting. The higher the number, the higher the
torque setting.
Always check that the correct torque is selected by practicing on scrap material prior
to carrying out a job.
The torque setting required to drive screws will differ with different materials. Start
with the torque setting on the number you think is appropriate (e.g.: 4) and increase
the torque adjustment collar to a higher number if the screw head is not sitting flush
with your work piece. Remove the screw after adjusting and re-drive the screw back
into the work piece until the correct torque adjustment leaves the screw head flush
with your work piece.
