in the LO speed
range,

ADJUSTABLE
TORQUE
CLUTCH
(Fig. 9)
When
using the drill/driver
for different
driving
applications,
it is necessary
to increase
or
decrease
the torque
in order to help prevent
the possibility
of damaging
screw
heads,
threads,
workpiece,
etc.
In general,
torque
intensity
should
correspond
to the screw diameter,
if
the torque
is too high or the screws
too small, the screws
may be damaged
or broken.
The torque
is adjusted
by rotating
the torque
adjustment
ring.
The torque
is greater
when the torque
adjustment
ring is set on a higher setting.
The
torque
is less when
the torque
adjustment
is set
on a lower setting.
The proper setting
depends
on the type of
material
and the size of screw
you are using.
Select the option that best matches
the type
of
bit, fastener
and material
you will be using.
Ill Choose
