• Do not look in the light or see the source of light

directly.

To turn on the lamp, pull the trigger. Release the trigger to

turn it off.

• Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of lamp. Be

careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or it may lower

the illumination.

Reversing switch action (Fig. 6)

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.

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of

rotation. Move the reversing switch lever to the

position (A side) for clockwise rotation or the position

(B side) for counterclockwise rotation.

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. (Fig. 7)

The fastening torque may be adjusted by turning the

adjusting ring. The torque is increased by turning the

adjusting ring in the direction of the arrow and decreased

by turning it in the opposite direction. Align the number 1

on the adjusting ring with the pointer on the gear housing.

Drive a trial screw into your material or a piece of

duplicate material. If the fastening torque is not suitable

for the screw, continue adjusting until the proper torque is

obtained.

CAUTION:

• The adjusting ring should be turned only within the

numbered range. It should not be forced beyond this

range.

Hook (Fig. 8)

The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

Installing or removing the bit

For Model FS2700

To remove the bit, first pull the front cap off and then pull

the bit out firmly. (Fig. 9)

To install the bit, insert it into the tool as far as it will go

and then replace the front cap.

For Model FS2701

To install the bit, pull the sleeve in the direction of the

arrow and insert the bit into the sleeve as far as it will go.

Then release the sleeve to secure the bit. (Fig. 10)

To remove the bit, pull the sleeve in the direction of the

arrow and pull the bit out firmly.

NOTE:

• If the bit is not inserted deep enough into the sleeve,

the sleeve will not return to its original position and the

bit will not be secured. In this case, try re-inserting the

bit according to the instructions above.

• After inserting the bit, make sure that it is firmly

secured. If it comes out, do not use it.

OPERATION (Fig. 11 & 12)

Fit the screw on the point of the bit and place the point of

the screw on the surface of the workpiece to be fastened.

Apply pressure to the tool and start it. Withdraw the tool

as soon as the clutch cuts in. Then release the switch

trigger.

CAUTION:

• When fitting the screw onto the point of the bit, be

careful not to push in on the screw. If the screw is

pushed in, the clutch will engage and the screw will

rotate suddenly. This could damage a workpiece or

cause an injury.

• Make sure that the bit is inserted straight in the screw

head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.
