4. The scope and suggestions for uses

The usable scope for various types of work based on the mechanical structure of this unit is shown in Table 7.

5. How to select tightening torque and rotational speed

Table 8

CAUTION:

⅜ The selection examples shown in Table 8 should be

considered as general standard. As different types of

tightening screws and different materials to be

tightened are used in actual works proper adjustments

are naturally necessary.

⅜ When using the driver drill with a machine screw at

HIGH (high speed), a screw may damage or a bit may

loose due to the tightning torque is too strong. Use

the driver drill at LOW (low speed) when using a

machine screw.

NOTE:

The use of the Li-ion battery in a cold condition

(below 0 degree Centigrade) can sometimes result in

the weakened tightening torque and reduced amount

of work. This, however, is a temporary phenomenon,

and returns to normal when the battery warms up.

6. Mounting and dismounting of the bit

(1) Mounting the bit

Loosen the sleeve by turning it toward the left (in the

counterclockwise direction as viewed from the front)

to open the clip on the keyless chuck. After inserting

a driver bit, etc., into the keyless drill chuck, and

tighten the sleeve by turning it toward the right (in

the clockwise direction as viewed from the front).

(See Fig. 10)

⅜ If the sleeve becomes loose during operation, tighten

it further.

The tightening force becomes stronger when the

sleeve is tightened additionally.

(2) Dismounting the bit

Loosen the sleeve by turning it toward the left (in the

counterclockwise direction as viewed from the front),

and then take out the bit, etc. (See Fig. 10)

⅜ How to switch over the Power mode (P) or Save

mode (S)

To set to the Power mode (P), slide the lever on the

side of handle to the lower side, and to set to the

Save mode (S), slide the lever to the upper side.

(Fig. 9)

CAUTION:

⅜ When changing the rotational speed with the shift

knob, confirm that the switch is off.

Changing the speed while the motor is rotating will

damage the gears.

⅜ When setting the shift knob to “HIGH” (high speed)

and the position of the cap is bitween “16” and “22”,

it may happen that the clutch does not engaged and

that the motor is locked. In such a case, please set the

shift knob to “LOW” (low speed).

⅜ If the motor is locked, immediately turn the power

off. If the motor is locked for a while, the motor or

battery may be burnt.

⅜ In the work of the save mode (S), avoid the continuous

screw-tightening as temperature of electronic

components of the converter switch increases.

⅜ To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery equips

with the protection function to stop the output.

Therefore, if the tool is overloaded, the motor may

stop. However, this is not the trouble but the result of

protection function. In this case, release the switch of

tool and eliminate the causes of overloading.
