Torque Setting

WARNING!
Only use the torque setting ring when the
tool is stopped and the chuck is not rotating.
Otherwise the tool can be damaged.
Before you start working you should test
m
your selection to find a suitable torque
setting on a sample of the same material as
the work piece.
The lowest torque is with the arrow
m
pointing to 1. Higher numbers mean higher
torque.
To use the highest torque the tool can
m
produce, set the mode selector to the drill
symbol. In this mode the torque inhibitor is
not activated.
For driving screws, especially in wood, a low
m
torque should be selected to reduce the
risk of damaging the screw head, thread or
work piece.
A high torque setting is best for drilling.

the screw. Otherwise the screw can be
damaged.
