Angling The Screwdriver; Torque Control; Two Speed Operation; Drilling - DeWalt DCF060 Instruction Manual

Angling the Screwdriver (Fig. 2, 4)
WARNING:
• To avoid being pinched, hold
the screwdriver as shown in
Figure 4 when changing
positions.
• Do not use screwdriver as a
pry bar in any position.
• To avoid screwdriver being
turned on accidentally, do not
carry in your pocket.
To convert the tool to an angled screwdriver, push in on the release
button (F) shown in Figure 4 and rotate the top portion of the tool until
it locks into one of the remaining two positions.
Torque Control (Fig. 2, 5)
The torque adjustment collar (B) is
marked with numbers and a drill bit
icon. There are 22 clutch settings in
all. Each click in a clockwise direction
means an increase in the torque
produced.
To set the torque align the desired
setting with the arrow on the tool
housing. The higher the number on
the collar, the higher the torque.
To lock the clutch for heavy fastening
operations, move to the drill bit icon.
If you do not know the appropriate setting to use when tightening a
screw, begin at the lowest torque setting. If the clutch ratchets before
the desired result is achieved, increase the collar setting and continue
tightening the screw. Repeat until you reach the correct setting.

stop. Push the slide switch (D) located on the top of the tool to the
left. Use low speed for screwdriving operations.
To select the high speed, (low torque setting), turn tool off and permit

Drilling

WARNING: It is important to support work properly and to hold the
drill firmly to prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury
If you have questions on how to operate tool, contact an authorized
service center or other qualified service personnel.
• Use sharp drill bits only.
• Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the safety
Instructions.
• Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in
the safety instructions.
• Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the safety
instructions.
• Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole is
started enough to keep the drill bit from slipping out of it.
• Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure
to keep the bit biting but not so much as to stall the motor or
deflect the bit.
• Hold the tool firmly with two hands to control its twisting
action.
