BL-2000 and BL-3000 Models
Operating the Tool
1. Attach cord to the BL Driver. Make sure notch in plug lines up with the notch on the socket. Tighten knurled ground
ring. Attach cord to a transformer (Transformer required to operate the tool). Make sure notch in plug lines up with the
notch on the socket. Tighten knurled ground ring.
2. Select a bit. Retract the bit collar. Insert the bit and release the retracted collar. To avoid damaging fasteners, make
sure the proper bit is suitable for the head of the fastener.
3. The torque limit is determined by the tension of the coil spring housed in the torque adjustment nut. The tighter the
coil spring is wound the higher the torque limit is raised. See Charts on page 3 to determine the appropriate torque
adjustment setting.
4. For BL-3000
Rotate the torque adjustment nut to set the torque limit. Turn clockwise to increase torque and counter clockwise to
decrease torque.The scale adjacent to the Torque Adjustment Nut is a reference guide. The torque output from the
driver can change depending on various fastening factors like friction, type of joint, and the type material being used
like a washer.
For BL-2000
The screwdriver has a "Double Nut System" (nut fixing ring and
torque adjusting nut) to avoid loosening from shock or vibration
to the screwdriver. See Dia A.
- At first, keep the nut fixing ring to fit the scale at which, if you
want to adjust.
- Then turn the torque adjusting nut toward the nut fixing ring.
- Lastly, to avoid the loosening of the torque adjusting nut fasten
strongly the nut fixing ring by holding the torque
adjustment nut.
5. Plug in transformer and check power indicator. If it is not on,
check fuse in the transformer.
Transformers - Standard transformers feature a HIGH & LOW
speed button. Select the appropriate speed for your application.
6. Turn driver on and check for proper rotation. FOR-clockwise,
REV-counterclockwise.
7. To apply torque, squeeze the lever (Push-to-Start mode of BL-
3000* - place light downward pressure on the nose of
the driver). The driver will automatically stop when the preset
torque has been reached.
8. To remove the screw, turn the FOR/REV switch to REV.
* Note: The BL-3000 features a two-way start system (switchable
between Lever Start and Push-to-Start)
