The fastening torque can be adjusted in 16 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 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.
NOTE:
•
The adjusting ring does not lock when the pointer
is positioned only halfway between the
graduations.
