Operating Instructions
Torque control (fig.D)
This tool is fitted with a torque adjustment collar (3) to select
the operating mode and to set the torque for tightening
screws. Large screws and hard workpiece materials require
a higher torque setting than small screws and soft workpiece
materials.
For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar to
u
the drilling position symbol
For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting. If you
u
do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed as
follows:
Set the collar to the lowest torque setting.
u
Tighten the first screw.
u
If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is achieved,
u
increase the collar setting and continue tightening the
screw. Repeat until you reach the correct setting. Use this
setting for the remaining screws.

Warning! Make certain the lock-off button is engaged to
prevent switch actuation before installing or removing acces-
sories.

your other hand to rotate the front half (8) in the counter-
clockwise direction, as viewed from the chuck end.

u
tighten securely by holding the rear half of the chuck and
rotating the front portion in the clockwise direction as
viewed from the chuck end.
