Adjusting the fastening torque
Fig.6
When you wish to drive machine screws, wood screws,
hex bolts, etc. with the predetermined torque, adjust the
fastening torque as follows.
The fastening torque may be adjusted by turning the
adjusting ring. Before turning the adjusting ring, turn the
locator in the direction of the arrow as far as it will go
without forcing. The torque is increased by turning the
adjusting ring in the direction of the arrow and
decreased by turning it in the opposite direction. Align
the number 1 on the adjusting ring with the pointer on
the gear housing. Drive a trial screw into your material or
a piece of duplicate material. If the fastening torque is
not suitable for the screw, continue adjusting until the
proper torque is obtained.
CAUTION:
The adjusting ring should be turned only within the
•
numbered range. It should not be forced beyond
this range.
