When the shift knob is set to "LOW", the drill rotates at
a low speed. When set to "HIGH", the drill rotates at a
high speed.
CAUTION
● When changing the rotational speed with the
shift knob, confi rm that the switch is off .
Changing the speed while the motor is rotating
will damage the gears.
● When a large force is required for operation
(operations indicated in the following chart) set
the shift knob to "LOW". If "HIGH" is set and the
unit is used, it may cause the motor to burn out
or malfunction prematurely.

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 diff ers 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.
