CAUTION

⅜ The motor rotation may be locked to cease while the

unit is used as drill. While operating the driver drill,

take care not to lock the motor.

⅜ Too long hammering may cause the screw broken

due to excessive tightening.

3. Change rotation speed

Operate the shift knob to change the rotational speed.

Move the shift knob in the direction of the arrow (see

Figs. 6 and 7).

When the shift knob is set to “LOW”, the drill

rotates at a low speed. When set to “HIGH”, the

drill rotates at a high speed.

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 clutch dial is “17” or “22”, it

may happen that the clutch is 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.

Be sure to turn the shift knob.

Table 5

CAUTION

⅜ The selection examples shown in Table 5 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 tightening torque is too strong. Use

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

machine screw.

NOTE

The use of the 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. Using the light

Pull the trigger switch to light up the light. The light

keeps on lighting while the trigger switch is being

pulled. The light goes out after releasing the trigger

switch. (Fig. 8)

(The light automatically goes out 10 seconds after

releasing the trigger switch.)
