Adjusting the fastening torque

When you wish to drive machine screws, wood screws,

hex bolts, etc. with the predetermined torque, adjust the

fastening torque as follows.

1. First remove the battery cartridge from the tool.

2. Loosen and remove the screw that secures ring.

(Loosen the two screws that secure ring only for

DFL201F) (Fig. 6)

3. Rotate the ring in the front of the tool by hand so that a

hole can be seen below the ring.

4. Place the battery cartridge in place and pull the switch

trigger. Release it so that the adjust ring rotates and

the hole becomes visible as illustrated (Fig. 7). And

then remove the battery cartridge.

5. Use an optional adjust grip to adjust the fastening

torque. Insert the pin of the adjust grip into the hole in

the front of the tool. And then, turn the adjust grip

clockwise to set a greater fastening torque, and

counterclockwise to set a smaller fastening torque.

(Fig. 8)

6. Align the edge of the adjust ring with your desired

number on the fastening torque scale.

7. Insert the battery cartridge and be sure that a

fastening torque has been set up by using a fastening

torque tester.

8. Rotate the ring so that the hole for adjust grip is

covered, hold and then secure the ring with screw.

NOTE:

• Numbers on the fastening torque scale is a guideline to

set up your desired fastening torque.

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.

Selecting correct socket

There are different types of sockets for some models

depending on applications. Choose and install a correct

socket for your application.

Installing or removing socket (Fig. 9)

To install the socket, push it onto the square drive of the

tool with one hand by depressing a pin on the square

drive with another hand until it locks into place. To

remove the socket, simply pull it off depressing the pin on

the square drive.

OPERATION

Hold the tool firmly and place the socket over the bolt or

nut. Then switch the tool on. When the clutch cuts in, the

motor will stop automatically. Then release the switch

trigger. (Fig. 10)

NOTE:

• Hold the tool with its square drive pointed straight at the

bolt or nut, or the bolt or nut will be damaged.

Limits of fastening capacity

Use the tool within the range of the revolution angle up to

360°. If you use the tool beyond the upper limit of this

range, the clutch does not work. And the tool cannot

deliver enough fastening torque (LED indicator blinks in

purple slowly or lights up in purple).

NOTE:

• The revolution angle means the angle which a screw/

bolt revolves when the tool attains to 100% from 50%

of desired torque.

• Use of a low temperature conditioned battery cartridge

may sometimes give warning for battery cartridge

capacity by warning lamp and beeper which makes the

tool stop immediately. In this case, the fastening

capacity may be inferior to the specification on this

manual even if a charged battery cartridge is used.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the

battery cartridge is removed before attempting to

perform inspection or maintenance.

like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
