Trickle charge (Maintenance charge)
If you leave the battery cartridge in the charger to prevent spontaneous discharging after full charge, the
charger will switch into its ''trickle charge (maintenance charge)'' mode and keep the battery cartridge fresh and
fully charged.
Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at 10°C – 40°C (50°F – 104°F).
Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride battery cartridge when you do not use it for more than six months.
Setting for desired screw length (Fig. 3)
There are 3 positive-lock screw length settings. To
obtain the desired setting, pull out the stopper base
while depressing the lever until you see the number of
the desired screw length (indicated on the plate)
appear to rest on the very top edge of the casing. See
the table below for the relation between the number
indicated on the plate and the respective screw length
ranges.

Adjusting the driving depth (Fig. 4)
Depress the stopper base as far as it will go. While
keeping it in this position, turn the adjusting knob until
the bit tip projects approx. 5 mm from the stopper
base. Drive a trial screw. If the screw head projects
above the driving surface, turn the adjusting knob in
the A direction; if the screw head is countersunk, turn
the adjusting knob in the B direction.
Installing screw strip (Fig. 5 & 6)
Insert the screw strip through the screw guide. Then
insert it through the feeder box until the first screw
reaches the position next to the driving position.
Removing screw strip (Fig. 7 & 8)
To remove the screw strip, just pull it out in the
direction of the arrow. If you depress the reverse
button, you can pull out the screw strip in the reverse
direction of the arrow.
Carry hook (Fig. 9)
The carry hook is convenient for temporarily hooking
the tool. It can be installed on either side of the tool.
When installing or removing the carry hook, widen it
by pressing its lower portion in the direction of the
arrow.

Switch action (Fig. 10)
CAUTION:
Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the ''OFF'' position when
released.
To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Release the
trigger to stop.
Installing set plate (Fig. 11)
Always install the set plate when using battery car-
tridges 1200, 1202 or 1202A. Install the set plate on
the tool with the screw provided as shown in Fig. 11.
Driving operation (Fig. 12)
Switch on the tool by pulling the switch trigger. Hold
the tool squarely and firmly up against the driving
surface. A screw will be automatically carried to the
driving position and fastened.
CAUTION:
• Always check the bit carefully for wear before
driving operations. Replace a worn bit or poor
fastening may result.
• Always hold the tool squarely against the driving
surface. Holding it at an angle may damage the
screw heads and cause wear on the bit. This may
also lead to poor fastening.
• Always keep the tool firmly against the driving
surface until the driving is over. Failure to do so may
cause insufficient fastening of screws.
• Be careful not to drive a screw onto another screw
already fastened.
• Do not operate the tool without screws. It will
damage the driving surface.
• If the feeder box does not work smoothly when
driving screws, spray car wax (spray type) on the
sliding surfaces. Never lubricate it.
