(1) Tightening mode selector switch
By using the Tightening mode selector switch on the side
of the tool body, the tightening torque can be adjusted
according to the type of work.
The Tightening mode switches between 4 diff erent modes
each time the Tightening mode selector switch is pressed.
Normal mode allows screws to be tightened smoothly and
gently.
Under normal circumstances, use Normal mode.
Power mode is suitable for heavy-load work that requires
more force, such as tightening long screws.
Use it when you feel that Normal mode lacks suffi cient
power.
Self-drilling screw mode is used for tightening self-
drilling Teks screws. This mode reduces the chances of
overtightening that could result in severing of the screw
head, breakage of the screw, or slippage.
NOTE
○ The appropriate mode diff ers depending on the screw
and the material being screwed. Drive in a few test
screws and adjust the mode setting accordingly.
○ The tightening mode selector switch can only be set
after the battery has been installed in the driver and
the trigger switch has been pulled once.
