Use and Care Manual

DRIVE SPEED ADJUSTMENT

Low speed tools can be switched from 2500 to 1600 RPM for driving self-drilling and tapping screws

into heavy steel applications. This can be done by depressing the drive speed adjustment button shown

in Figure 1. A red LED will indicate that low speed mode (1600 RPM) is engaged. Click the button again

to toggle back to normal mode (2500 RPM).

The most recently selected mode will be maintained indeﬁnitely until the user presses the button again.

DRIVING SCREWS

1. Whenever possible, hold the tool at a right angle to the work surface.

2. Pull the trigger to start the motor.

3. Press the nosepiece with constant force against the work surface. Do not remove the tool from the

work surface until the clutch disengages and the bit stops rotating, signalling a fully driven screw.

4. Continue to allow the motor to run. The next screw will be automatically fed into place when the tool

is pulled off the work surface.

CAUTION

During the driving process it is possible for the tool to “cut-out” or stop the motor

prematurely as a safety function to preserve the tool. If the motor senses a torque spike, an over-current

protection function will activate. A partially driven screw can be driven fully by squeezing the trigger

again to reset the tool/motor. If this cut-out occurs repeatedly, please review the troubleshooting sec-

tion for more details, or discontinue use in that application.

TRIGGER LOCK

To lock the trigger for continuous operation, depress the trigger and push in the locking button then

release the trigger. The tool will continue to run. To turn off, squeeze and release the trigger.

DEPTH OF DRIVE ADJUSTMENT

This tool is equipped with a locking depth control adjustment:

1. Release the thumbwheel by depressing the red lock button.

2. Adjust the countersink by turning the depth adjustment thumbwheel.

3 Refer to the markings on the tool for proper direction.

4. Release the lock button after adjustment.

Test drive screws while adjusting until the desired countersink is reached.

This tool has a depth-sensing clutch. When the screw is countersunk to the preset depth, it

automatically disengages and makes a click or ratcheting sound. This is normal and signals completion

of the drive.
