Reversing switch action (Fig. 5)

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of

side for clockwise rotation or from the “B” side for

counterclockwise rotation.

When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral position,

the switch trigger cannot be pulled.

CAUTION:

• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.

• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a

complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation

before the tool stops may damage the tool.

• When not operating the tool, always set the reversing

switch lever to the neutral position.

Speed change (Fig. 6)

To change the speed, first switch off the tool and then

slide the speed change lever to the “2” side for high speed

or, “1” side for low speed. Be sure that the speed change

lever is set to the correct position before operation. Use

the right speed for your job.

CAUTION:

• Always set the speed change lever fully to the correct

position. If you operate the tool with the speed change

lever positioned halfway between the “1” side and, “2”

side, the tool may be damaged.

• Do not use the speed change lever while the tool is

running. The tool may be damaged.

For rotation only, slide the lever so that it points toward

the mark on the tool body. For rotation with hammering,

slide the lever so that it points toward the mark on the

tool body. For rotation with clutch, slide the lever so that

the it points toward the mark on the tool body.

NOTE:

• When changing the position from “ ” to “ ”, it may

be a little difficult to slide the mode change lever. At this

time, switch on and run the tool for a second at the “ ”

position, then stop the tool and slide to your desired

position.

CAUTION:

• Always set the lever correctly to your desired mode

mark. If you operate the tool with the lever positioned

halfway between the mode marks, the tool may be

damaged.

Adjusting the fastening torque (Fig. 8)

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 16 steps by

turning the adjusting ring so that its graduations are

aligned with the arrow on the tool body. The fastening

torque is minimum when the number 1 is aligned with the

arrow, and maximum when the number 16 is aligned with

the arrow.

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 application.
