TOOL OPERATION

LOADING THE TOOL
1. Check to be sure the heads of the screws are resting on top of the plastic collation material. This will ensure proper strip advancement and prevent jamming.

EN 1

2. Check for proper fastener length setting (see “Adjusting for Fastener Length” above). 3. Feed the strip into the strip guide track up toward the nose of the tool. 4. Feed the strip into the slide body until the first screw is aligned with the bit. The tool will feed all subsequent
screws automatically as the tool is pulled back off the work surface, returning to its relaxed state. 5. To remove the strip, pull it through from the top of the side body.
DRIVE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
Low speed tools can be switched from 2500 to 1600 RPM for driving self-drilling and tapping screws into heavy steel applications. This can be done by depressing the drive speed adjustment button shown in Figure 1. A red LED will indicate that low speed mode (1600 RPM) is engaged. Click the button again to toggle back to normal mode (2500 RPM). The most recently selected mode will be maintained indefinitely until the user presses the button again.
DRIVING SCREWS
1. Whenever possible, hold the tool at a right angle to the work surface. 2. Pull the trigger to start the motor. 3. Press the nosepiece with constant force against the work surface. Do not remove the tool from the work surface
until the clutch disengages and the bit stops rotating, signalling a fully driven screw. 4. Continue to allow the motor to run. The next screw will be automatically fed into place when the tool is pulled
off the work surface.
CAUTION During the driving process it is possible for the tool to “cut-out” or stop the motor prematurely as a
safety function to preserve the tool. If the motor senses a torque spike, an over-current protection function will activate. A partially driven screw can be driven fully by squeezing the trigger again to reset the tool/motor. If this cut-out occurs repeatedly, please review the troubleshooting section for more details, or discontinue use in that application.
TRIGGER LOCK
