OPERATION
ADJUSTABLE-TORQUE
CLUTCH (FIG. 6)
FIG. 6
To increase torque
The higher the torque drill setting, the more
force the drill/driver produces to turn an
object in either low or high rotation speed.
When using the drill/driver for different
driving applications, increase or decrease
the torque in order to help prevent damage
to screw heads, threads, workpiece, etc.
Adjust the torque by rotating the torque-
adjustment ring. The proper setting depends
on the job and the type of bit, fastener, and
material you will be using.
In general, use greater torque for larger
screws. If the torque is too high, the screws
may be damaged or broken.
For delicate operations, such as removing
a partially stripped screw, use a low torque
setting. For operations such as drilling into
hardwood, use a higher torque setting.
CAUTION:
Do not change the
torque setting when the tool is running.
DRILL MODE (FIG. 7)
FIG. 7
Drill icon
Torque indicator
Select the drill mode for drilling and other
heavy-duty applications.
To select drill mode, rotate the torque-
adjustment ring until the drill icon aligns with
the torque indicator.
LED WORKLIGHT (FIG. 8)
FIG. 8
LED worklight
The LED worklight, located on the base
of the drill/driver, will illuminate when the
trigger switch is depressed before the drill/
driver is running. This provides additional
light on the surface of the workpiece. The
LED worklight will turn off when the trigger
switch is released.
