Precision Wrench™ (Fig. D)
In addition to normal impacting modes, this tool features
the Precision Wrench™ mode which grants the user greater
control in both fastening and loosening applications.
When set in forward, the tool will fasten at 2000 RPM until
impact begins. The tool will pause for a duration set by
the user in Tool Connect™ before continuing to impact
at a rate of 3100 IPM, providing the user with greater
control and reducing the chance of overtightening or
damaging material.
When set in reverse, the tool will impact at a normal speed
and rate of 3100 IPM. Upon sensing that the fastener has
broken free, the tool will cease to impact and will reduce
speed to help prevent "run‑off" of loose hardware. Speed
reduction can be set by the user in ToolConnect™.
