The fastening torque can be adjusted in 16 levels by
turning the adjusting ring. Align the graduations with the
arrow on the tool body. You can get the minimum fas
-
tening torque at 1 and maximum torque at 16.
Before actual operation, drive a trial screw into your
material or a piece of duplicate material to deter-
mine which torque level is required for a particular
application.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.

The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
This can be installed on either side of the tool. To install
the hook, insert it into a groove in the tool housing on
either side and then secure it with a screw. To remove,
loosen the screw and then take it out.
Installing driver bit holder
Optional accessory

Driver bit
Fit the driver bit holder into the protrusion at the tool foot
on either right or left side and secure it with a screw.
When not using the driver bit, keep it in the driver bit
holders. Driver bits 45 mm-long can be kept there.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always insert the battery cartridge
all the way until it locks in place.
If you can see the
red indicator on the upper side of the button, it is not
locked completely. Insert it fully until the red indicator
cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of
the tool, causing injury to you or someone around
you.
CAUTION:
When the speed comes down
extremely, reduce the load or stop the tool to
avoid the tool damage.
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip and the
other hand on the bottom of the battery cartridge to
control the twisting action.

Screwdriving operation
CAUTION:
Adjust the adjusting ring to the
proper torque level for your work.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the driver bit is
inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw
and/or driver bit may be damaged.
First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the
arrow on the tool body points to the
marking.
Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and
apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then
increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger
as soon as the clutch cuts in.
NOTE:
When driving wood screw, pre-drill a pilot hole
2/3 the diameter of the screw. It makes driving easier
and prevents splitting of the workpiece.
Hammer drilling operation
CAUTION:
There is a tremendous and sud-
den twisting force exerted on the tool/drill bit
at the time of hole breakthrough, when the hole
becomes clogged with chips and particles, or
when striking reinforcing rods embedded in the
concrete.
