To change the speed, switch off the tool first. Push
the speed change lever to display "2" for high speed
or "1" for low speed but high torque. Be sure that the
speed change lever is set to the correct position before
operation.
If the tool speed is coming down extremely during the
operation with display "2", push the lever to display "1"
and restart the operation.
Selecting the action mode
CAUTION:
Always set the ring correctly to
your desired mode mark. If you operate the tool
with the ring positioned halfway between the

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 21 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 21.
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 applica
-
tion. The following shows the rough guide of the rela
-
tionship between the screw size and graduation.
