torque adjustment collar to No. 8 (the settings range
from 1 = soft to 18 = hard). Confirm that the Forward
Reverse selector is set to forward.
Offer the machine up to the work, then gently
squeeze the ON/OFF trigger to start the fixing
rotating, place enough pressure on the machine to
allow the bit to stay in contact with the fixing as it
enters the work.
The machine will drive the fixing until the torque setting
is reached, whereupon the bit will cease to rotate (the
motor will run and a fast 'clicking' sound will be heard).
Check the setting of the fixing and if the head is
embedded too far into the work or is sitting proud
of the work, adjust the torque setting.
To adjust the torque turn the torque adjustment
collar clockwise to decrease the setting and anti-
clockwise to increase (the higher the number the
greater the torque).
Once set you should not have to make any more
adjustments.
Whatever you are doing...
If the screw/fixing needs to be removed, set the torque
to No. 18 and select reverse.
