Feature
Clockwise
This mode helps to repeat screw-
driving continuously with equal
torque. This mode also helps to
reduce the risk of breakage of
bolts/nuts due to overtightening.
Counterclockwise
This mode helps to prevent a bolt
from falling off. When loosening a
bolt with the tool driving in counter-
clockwise rotation, the tool automat-
ically stops or slows down after the
bolt/nut gets enough loosened.
NOTE:
The timing to stop the driving
varies depending on the type
of the bolt/nut and material to
be driven. Make a test driving
before using this mode.

The tool stops automatically as
soon as it has started impact blows.

The impact force is 4. The tool
stops automatically as soon as
it has stopped impact blows.

mately 0.2 second later from
