OPERATION
Driving operation
►
Fig.15
Switch on the tool by pulling the switch trigger. Hold the
tool squarely and firmly up against the driving surface. A
screw will be automatically carried to the driving posi
-
tion and fastened.
CAUTION:
•
Always check the bit carefully for wear before
driving operations. Replace a worn bit or poor
fastening may result.
•
Always hold the tool squarely against the driving
surface. Holding it at an angle may damage the
screw heads and cause wear on the bit. This
may also lead to poor fastening.
•
Always keep the tool firmly against the driving
surface until the driving is over. Failure to do so
may cause insufficient fastening of screws.
•
Be careful not to drive a screw onto another
screw already fastened.
•
Do not operate the tool without screws. It will
damage the driving surface.
•
If the feeder box does not work smoothly when
driving screws, spray car wax (spray type) on
the sliding surfaces. Never lubricate it.

Stopper base
This tool can be used to drive at a position 15 mm away
from the wall as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
•
Driving at a position closer than 15 mm to the
wall or driving with the stopper base in contact
with the wall may damage the screw heads and
cause wear on the bit. This may also lead to
poor fastening of screws and malfunction of the
tool.
