Adjusting Locator Assembly
The locator assembly controls the tool's driving
depth. These screwdrivers feature a locator as-
sembly with one-handed depth adjustment. Depth
adjustments can be made easily and quickly by
turning the locator with one hand. Detents inside
the sleeve “lock” the selected depth.

with about 1/16" clearance between the head of
the screw and nose with the snap-action clutch
disengaged as shown.

the ramp-off sleeve while pulling it away from the
tool.

2. Push insert bit into bit holder until it snaps into

place. Push the bit holder into the nose of the
tool until it snaps into place.

3. Push the locator assembly onto the nose of the

tool until it snaps into place.
