6. Tightening torque adjustment.
(1) Tightening torque
Tightening torque should correspond in its
intensity to the screw diameter. When too strong
power is used, the screw head may be broken or
be injured.
Be sure to adjust the clutch dial position according
to the screw diameter.
(2) Tightening torque indication (See Fig. 9)
The tightening torque differs depending on the
type of screw and the material being tightened.
The unit indicates the tightening torque with the
numbers "1, 3, 5 ... 22" on the clutch dial, and a dot.
The tightening torque at position "1" is the weakest
and the torque is strongest at the highest number.
(3) Adjusting the tightening torque (See Fig. 9)
Rotate the clutch dial and line up the numbers "1,
3, 5, ... 22" on the clutch dial, or the dot, with the
triangle mark on the outer body. Adjust the clutch
dial in the weak or the strong torque direction
according to the torque you need.
