GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING: when using electric screwdrivers, basic safety precaution
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and
personal injury. Read all the instructions below before using the
screwdriver and save them.
1. Keep the work area clean and well lit.
2.
Do not use the electric screwdrivers in dampt or wet locations or in
presence of flammable liquid or gases.
3.
Avoid body contact with grounder surface as pipes, radiator,
refrigerators, etc.

and out of the reach of children.
6.
Do not use the srewdrivers for purposes or work not intended.
7.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing and jewelry. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
8.
Never carry the screwdriver by cable or pull it to disconnect it from
socket.
9.
Use clamps or a vice to hold work.
10.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
11.
Inspect tool cable periodically and, if damaged, have it repaired or
replaced by authorized service facility. Always keep handles dry, clean
and free from oil and grease.
12.
Disconnect tools from power supply before any operation of servicing,
when changing accessories and when you do not use them.

Failing to do so may represent a serious danger.
WARNING: before connecting the control unit and power supply to the
socket, please check the voltage you are using is that indicated on the label
of the unit itself.
1. Applications
KOLVER electric screwdrivers are used to tighten to the required torque screws,
nuts, studs and any other kind of threaded connection on any material. Obviously,
it is possible to use the screwdrivers with screw having a larger diameter if the
torque fall within the indicated range. All models are reversible and can
consequently be used to unscrew. Electric screwdrivers are mainly used in the
electronic industry as well as for electric appliances, wiring, toys, lamps, glasses, in
the mechanical light industry etc.
2. Use
KOLVER screwdriving system is composed by a screwdriver, a cable with 2 x
M12 female 5 pin connectors and a power supply and control unit. To install it
please follow the instructions.
a) Connect the 5-pin connectors of the cable to the controller and to the
screwdriver and tighten the relevant nuts.
b) Connect the controller plug to a mains supply socket 90 / 230V- 50/60Hz.
c) Switch the controller on through the black button on the back panel.
d) Select the desired setting of speed (A) and slow start (R) options through the
relevant knobs. Please make sure that such settings are compatible with the torque
setting. Since the speed reduction is obtained through a voltage reduction (= power
reduction), if the torque setting is too high for a low speed setting, the clutch may
not operate correctly and get stuck. In such a case, the driver will not run and when
you press the start lever the red light will signal. To reset the driver just turn the bit
chuck until you hear the clutch “click” (usually 180°). Increase the speed setting
before running the driver again.
e) Similarly, the slow start setting should be chosen according to the torque that
must be reached at full speed and not when the slow start is still in action.
g) Do not slide the forward/reverse while the motor is running, it’s dangerous for
the motor.
3. Adjusting the torque
The torque value of the screwdriver is adjusted by changing the tension of the
clutch spring, screwing or unscrewing the threaded #2 nut. After each adjustament
lock the nut by means of #30 ring.
To increase the torque turn the nut clockwise, to decrease it turn the nut
anticlockwise.
