Operating Instructions
This tool is equipped with a clutch that, when
combined with the Posi-Lok™ depth control,
stops the screw at the desired depth and
prevents the screw head from becoming
stripped or breaking the bit tip.
The clutch becomes engaged and begins
driving the screw into the work piece when
pressure is placed on the bit tip. The clutch
becomes disengaged and stops driving the
screw when the depth control contacts the
work piece and releases the pressure on the
bit tip.
This control can be accessed on either side of
the tool to change the direction of rotation of the
bit.
Forward clockwise rotation:
Reverse counterclockwise rotation:
to a complete stop. Shifting during rotation of
the chuck can cause damage to the tool.
