Changing bits q
•
! do not use bits with a damaged shank
• Torque control (VariTorque) w
- output torque will increase as clutch ring B is rotated
from 1 to 17
- when turning in a screw, first try VariTorque position 1
and increase until the desired depth has been reached
- position F will lock up the clutch to permit (non-impact)
drilling or driving heavy-duty work
- position D will lock up the clutch to permit impact
drilling only
! ensure that gear selector B is in position 2 when
function selector C is in impact drilling position
! do not use impact drilling position D for drilling in
wood, metal, ceramic and plastic to prevent the
drill/screw bit from being damaged
• Mechanical gear selection e
- set selector G to desired speed
! actuate the gear selector while tool is running
slowly
1
- low speed
- high torque
- for screwdriving and drilling large diameters
- for tapping thread
2
- high speed
- lower torque
- for impact drilling
- for drilling small diameters
