Before first use / Preparing the tool for use
Q Torque pre-selection
You can adjust the torque by using 9 torque pre-
selection. The torque levels regulate a range of up
to ca. 8 Nm.
When the value of the torque setting is reached, the
clutch disengages the drive connection to the chuck.
By doing this, screws can be driven to a predeter-
mined depth, which is ideal for repetitive work.
j
Select a low setting for small screws, soft work
material.
j
Select a high setting for large screws, hard
work materials and for the extraction of screws.
j
For drilling, push the selector to the setting for
drilling, in that you adjust the torque pre-selector
to the position .
j
For drilling tasks, also push the gear selector
switch 1 to the front (Position: 2).
Q 2 gear Drive
m CAUTION! Move the gear selector switch 1
only after the device has come to a standstill.
Failure to observe this advice may result in damage
to the device.
In the first gear (gear selector switch 1
in Position: 1)
A speed of up to approx. 500 rpm can be achieved
and a high torque. This setting is intended for use
with all screwing tasks and for accessories.
In the second gear (gear selector switch 1
in Position: 2)
It achieves a speed of up to approx. 1400 rpm, for
the carrying out of drilling tasks.

Preparing the tool for use
Q
Switching ON /OFF
m CAUTION! Make sure the device not operat-
ing when it contacts the screw. A rotating inserted
tool may slip. This could result in personal injury or
damage to the workpiece.
Switching on:
j
To start the appliance squeeze on the ON /
OFF switch 5 and then keep it pressed down.
Switching off:
j
To stop the appliance, release the ON / OFF
switch 5 .
Q Adjusting the speed
The ON / OFF switch 5 has a variable speed
regulator.
j
By increasing the pressure on the ON / OFF
switch 5 you can increase the R.P.M.
Note: The integrated motor brake ensures the
shaft quickly stops rotating - so that you can get to
work again fast.
Q Switching direction of rotation
j To switch the direction of rotation, push the
direction of rotation switch 4 to either the
right or to the left.
Q
Tips and Tricks
When screwing into wood, metal and
other materials, take note of the following
advice:
j Before you use the appliance, check to see
that the screw or drill bit is properly fitted, i.e.
located centrally in the chuck.
j Screw bits are designated with their dimensions
and their shape. If you are unsure, always try
the particular screw bit out to see whether it sits
in the screw head without any free play.
Torque:
j
Smaller screws and bits in particular can be
easily damaged if you adjust the appliance
with too high a torque and/or rotation speed.
