Speed Selection - Panasonic EY-6950 Operating Instructions Manual

Bit-locking function
1. With the trigger switch not engaged
and a screwdriver bit locked in place,
the tool can be used as a manual
screwdriver (up to 22.6 Nm, 230 k
f-cm, 199 in-lbs).
There will be a little play in the chuck,
but this is not a malfunction.
2. This feature is handy for tightening
screws that require more torque than
the maximum torque of the driver (po-
sition on the clutch), for confirming
the tightness of a screw or to loosen
an extremely tight screw.
NOTE: When the brake operates, a
braking sound may be heard.
This sound indicates engagement
of the bit lock.
