Tool Operation 

13

Changing the bit

Due to wear or damage, the 

bit will need to be replaced 

periodically or when changing 

between drive types.

(1) Maintain forward pressure 

on tool. (2) Pull the trigger 

to start motor. Continue 

operation until screw is 

completely  

disengaged.

Depress nose piece while 

inserting bit into screw.

Forward Reverse 

Operation

To operate in reverse, 

remove the screw strip and 

push the black reverse button

Test drive one screw before 

finalizing the depth to ensure 

appropriate countersink.

This tool has a depth-sensing 

clutch. When the screw 

is countersunk to the pre-

set depth, it automatically 

disengages and makes a click 

or racheting sound. This is 

normal and signals completion 

of the drive.

When the battery is low or 

the drive requires too much 

torque, the tool may stall at 

the bottom of the drive (before 

the clutch can disengage). 

Continuous operation in this 

manner can cause over-

heating and permanent 

damage.

 If the fastener to be removed 

was driven to the proper 

depth, it will be necessary 

to adjust the depth of drive 

deeper (see depth of drive 

adjustment page 12) before 

the clutch will engage in 

reverse.
