Intended Use - DeWalt DCS551 Guide D'utilisation

INTENDED USE

This screwdriver is designed for professional fastening applications.
DO NOT use under wet conditions or in presence of flammable
liquids or gases.
This is a professional power tool. DO NOT let children come into
contact with the tool. Supervision is required when inexperienced
operators use this tool.
DEAD SPINDLE ACTION
All D WALT drywall screwguns provide a dead spindle output to permit
E
fasteners to be located easily on the driving accessory. Clutches are
held apart by a light spring pressure permitting the driving clutch
to rotate without turning the driven clutch and accessory. When
sufficient forward pressure is applied to the unit, the clutches engage
and rotate the spindle and accessories. A reversing switch makes it
possible to drive or loosen either right or left hand fasteners.
Variable Speed Switch (Fig. 2)
To turn the tool "ON", squeeze the trigger switch (G). To turn the tool
"OFF" release the trigger. Your tool is equipped with a variable speed
switch which enables you to select the best speed for a particular
application. The farther you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool
will operate.
LOCK-ON BUTTON
To lock the switch in the ON position for continuous operation,
depress the trigger switch (G) and push up the lock-on button (I).
The tool will continue to run. To turn the tool off, from a locked on
condition, squeeze and release the trigger once. Before using the
tool (each time), be sure that the locking button release mechanism
is working freely.
CAUTION: Be sure to release the locking mechanism before
removing the battery from the tool. Failure to do so will cause the tool
to start immediately the next time the battery is installed. Damage or
injury could result.
Forward/Reverse Control Lever (Fig. 2)
A forward/reverse control lever (H) determines the direction of the tool
and also serves as a lock-off. To select forward rotation, release the
trigger switch and depress the forward/reverse control lever on the
right side of the tool.
To select reverse, release the trigger switch (G) and depress the
forward/reverse control lever on the left side of the tool. The center
position of the control lever locks the trigger switch (G) in the off
position.
When changing the position of the control button, be sure the trigger
is released.
NOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing the direction of
rotation, you may hear a click on start up. This is normal and does
not indicate a problem.
Worklight (Fig. 2)
There is a worklight (J) located on the foot of the tool. The worklight is
activated when the trigger switch is depressed, and will automatically
turn off 20 seconds after the trigger switch is released. If the trigger
switch remains depressed, the worklight will remain on.
NOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface and is
not intended to be used as a flashlight.
Belt Hook (Fig. 2)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, DO
NOT suspend tool overhead or suspend objects from the belt hook.
ONLY hang tool's belt hook from a work belt.
