Speed / tightening torque
The speed and tightening torque are connected
directly. The lower the speed, the lower the
tightening torque.
The tightening torque is influenced in two ways:
1) Preselect operating mode/desiredtightening
torque at the setting wheel (7):
= max. tightening torque (power mode)
P
= adjustable tightening torque
. ..
= especially for self-cutting screws: at the
beginning high speed (for drilling) and later low
speed (for tightening the screw).
2) Stepless adjustment of the tightening torque:
The speed and tightening torque can be adjusted
steplessly in any position of the setting wheel by
pressing the trigger (5) firmly or lightly, thus
adapting to working conditions.
Recommendation: determine the correct setting
by carrying out trial screwdriving.

Changing screwdriving bit for SSD...
Inserting screwdriving bit: Slide locking sleeve
(3) forward and insert screwdriving bit as far as the
stop. Release locking sleeve (3).
Pull on the screwdriver bit to check that it is
correctly seated.
Removing screwdriving bit: Slide locking sleeve
(3) forward and remove screwdriving bit.
Only use screwdriving bits with such plug-in
ends:
The screwdriving bit used must match the
screw.
Damaged screwdriving bits must not be used.

Changing SSW... screwdriving bits
Inserting screwdriving bit: Fit the tool on the
square attachment (1) until the limit stop.
Removing screwdriving bit: Pull the tool from the
square attachment (1).
The screwdriving bit used must match the
screw.
Damaged screwdriving bits must not be used.
6. Use
Mount the machine on the screw, ensuring it is
aligned straight.
The screwdriving process has two elements:
inserting the screw and
tightening the screw with the percussion mech-
anism.

The tightening torque depends on the impact dura-
tion.
With an impact duration of approx. 5 seconds, the
maximum tightening torque has been reached.
The torque curve depends on the type of applica-
tion:
With a hard screwdriving application (screw-
couplings in hard material such as metal), maximum
tightening torque is already reached after a short
impact duration (a).
With a soft screwdriving application (screw-
couplings in soft material such as wood), a longer
impact duration (b) is required.
Recommendation: determine the correct impact
duration by carrying out trial screwdriving.
Caution! With small screws, maximum torque can
be reached even below an impact duration of 0.5
seconds.
- This is why the duration of the screwdriving
process must be monitored exactly.
- Set a suitable position on the setting wheel (7)
(see chapter 6.4).
- Adjust the tightening torque by pressing firmly or
lightly on the trigger (5), ensuring that the screw is
not damaged or that the screw head does not tear
off.
7. Accessories
Only use original Metabo battery packs and Metabo
