Torque limiter
NOTICE:
As soon as the torque limiter actuates,
switch off the tool immediately. This will help pre-
vent premature wear of the tool.
NOTICE:
Drill bits such as hole saw, which tend
to pinch or catch easily in the hole, are not appro-
priate for this tool. This is because they will cause
the torque limiter to actuate too frequently.
The torque limiter will actuate when a certain torque
level is reached. The motor will disengage from the
output shaft. When this happens, the drill bit will stop
turning.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before carrying out
any work on the tool.
