you achieve a speed of up to approx. 400 rpm and a
high torque. This setting is suitable for all screwing tasks.

In the second gear (Gear selector switch

1

in Position: 2)
It achieves a speed of up to approx. 1300 rpm, for
the carrying out of drilling tasks.

Torque control / drill step

You can use the torque control / drill step

10

to

adjust the torque. When the value of the torque
setting is reached, the clutch disengages the drive
connection to the chuck.

Select a low setting for small screws, soft work

material.

Select a high setting for large screws, hard

work materials and for the extraction of screws.

For drilling work, select the drill setting by putting

the torque control / drill setting into the position.

For drilling tasks, also push the gear selector

switch

1

to the front (Position: 2).

Tips and Tricks

When screwing into wood, metal and
other materials:

Screw bits are designated with their dimensions

and their shape. If you are unsure, always try
the particular screw bit out to see whether it sits
in the screw head without any free play.

Before you use the appliance, check to see

that the screw or drill bit is properly fitted, i.e.
located centrally in the chuck.

Torque:

Smaller screws and bits in particular can be

easily damaged if you adjust the appliance
with too high a torque and/or rotation speed.

Hard screw bed:

Particularly high torques can occur, for example

with metal screws tightened by socket tool bits.
Select a lower rotation speed.

Soft screw bed:

You should also select a low speed in order not
to damage the wood workpiece surface through
contact with the metal screw head. Use a coun-
tersinker.
