Depress the stopper base as far as it will go. While
keeping it in this position, turn the adjusting knob until
the bit tip projects approx. 5 mm (3/16") from the stopper
base. Drive a trial screw. If the screw head projects
above the surface of the workpiece, turn the adjusting
knob in the A direction; if the screw head is counter-sunk,
turn the adjusting knob in the B direction.
Installing screw strip
Insert the screw strip through the screw guide. Then
insert it through the feeder box until the first screw
reaches the position next to the driving position.
