Clockwise rotation
Once the depth setting is made, drive in a test
screw then, if necessary, correct the depth.
Attaching the depth stop

sion housing [3-5].
► Then, apply pressure until the depth stop
audibly clicks into place.
Removing the depth stop
► Take the depth stop out of the transmission

9.3 Frame hook and belt clip
The belt clip [5-1] can be used to attach the tool
to working clothes temporarily – it can be af­
fixed to the left or right-hand side of the tool
using a screw [5-2], making it suitable for
right-handed and left-handed operators – see
figure [5].

► Pressing on the button [8-1] slides the
depth stop [8-2] in or out, so that it can be
adjusted to the required screw length.
The screw length setting is visible on the sides
of the depth stop [8-3].
Inserting collated screws
► Firstly, draw the belt of collated
screws [9-3] through the lower magazine
guide and then thread them into the car­
riage guide until a screw clicks into the
working position.
Make sure that the screws are correctly
positioned and secure by pulling gently on
the belt of collated screws.
Check that the first screw is lined up in the
screwing axis – see figure [9].
► Use the adjusting wheel [9-1] to set the re­
quired insertion depth.
► Clockwise rotation will countersink the
screws further in, while anticlockwise rota­
tion will countersink the screws further out.
The current setting can be read off the pre­
setting display [9-2]
Once the setting is made, drive in a test screw,
then, if necessary, correct the depth setting us­
ing the adjusting wheel [9-1]. Each setting ad­
justment shifts the stop by ± 0.1 mm.
We recommend screwdriving in the
