ger to stop.
Reversing switch action (Fig. 4)
CAUTION:
• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a
complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation
before the tool stops may damage the tool.
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of
rotation. Slide the reversing switch up for clockwise rota-
tion or slide it down for counterclockwise rotation.
Overload protector
The overload protector automatically cuts out to break
the circuit whenever heavy work is prolonged. Wait 20 –
30 seconds before resuming operation.

quate fastening torque.
As soon as the screw becomes tight, the clutch will cut in
and the motor will stop automatically. Release the switch
