6.5 Speed / tightening torque
The speed and tightening torque are connected
directly. The lower the speed, the lower the
tightening torque.
The tightening torque is influenced in the following
ways:
1) Preselect maximum tightening torque
(ONLY for PowerMax SSD 12 BL)
You can select between 2 speed/ tightening torque
settings by pressing the button (6). The maximum
tightening torques can be found in the table on page
3 (M ).
max
Button (6) lights up to indicate which setting is
selected.
no lighting = max. speed / max. tightening torque
permanent lighting = low speed / low tightening
torque
2) Stepless adjustment of the tightening torque
(for PowerMax SSD 12 and PowerMax SSD 12 BL)
The speed and tightening torque can be adjusted
steplessly by pressing the trigger (4) firmly or lightly,
thus adapting to working conditions.
Recommendation: determine the correct setting
by carrying out trial screwdriving.
6.6 Changing the screwdriving bit
Inserting screwdriving bit: Slide locking sleeve
(2) forward and insert screwdriving bit as far as the
stop. Release locking sleeve (2) .
Pull on the screwdriver bit to check that it is
correctly seated.
Removing screwdriving bit: Slide locking sleeve
(2) forward and remove screwdriving bit.
Only use screwdriving bits with such plug-in
ends:
The screwdriving bit used must match the
screw.
Damaged screwdriving bits must not be used.
7. Use
Mount the machine on the screw, ensuring it is
aligned straight.
The screwdriving process consists of 2 parts: insert
screw and
tighten screw with the impact mechanism.
The tightening torque depends on the impact
duration.
9,5 mm (3/8")
With an impact duration of approx. 5 seconds, the
maximum tightening torque has been reached.
The torque curve depends on the type of
application:
With a hard screwdriving application (screw-
couplings in hard material such as metal), maximum
tightening torque is already reached after a short
impact duration (a).
With a soft screwdriving application (screw-
couplings in soft material such as wood), a longer
impact duration (b) is required.
Recommendation: determine the correct impact
duration by carrying out trial screwdriving.
Caution! For small screws the maximum torque
can be reached already after
0.5 seconds impact duration.
- This is why the duration of the screwdriving
process must be monitored exactly.
- For PowerMax SSD 12 BL: Use button (6) to set a
suitable level (see chapter 6.5).
- Adjust the tightening torque by pressing firmly or
lightly on the trigger (4), ensuring that the screw is
not damaged or that the screw head does not tear
off.
