The fastening torque is minimum when the number 1 is aligned with the pointer, and maximum when the A marking is aligned with the pointer. The clutch will slip at various torque levels when set at the number 1 to 16. The clutch is designed not to slip at the A marking. Before actual operation, drive a trial screw into your material or a piece of duplicate material to determine which torque level is required for a particular application. NOTE: Do not operate the tool with the adjusting ring set between the number 16 and the A marking. installing or removing driver bit or drill bit (Fig. 2) Important: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before installing or removing the bit. 7) Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and apply pressure to the tool.
