• Do not use the speed change lever while the tool is

running. The tool may be damaged.

Adjusting the fastening torque (Fig. 5)

For model 6019D only

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 6 steps by turning

the adjusting ring so that its graduations are aligned with

the pointer on the tool body. The fastening torque is mini-

mum when the number 1 is aligned with the pointer, and

maximum when the marking is aligned with the pointer.

The clutch will slip at various torque levels when set at the

number 1 to 5. The clutch is designed not to slip at the

marking.

Before actual operation, drive a trial screw into your mate-

rial or a piece of duplicate material to determine which

torque level is required for a particular application.

NOTE:

• The adjusting ring does not lock when the pointer is

positioned only halfway between the graduations.

• Do not operate the tool with the adjusting ring set

between the number 5 and the marking. The tool

may be damaged.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-

tery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work

on the tool.

Installing or removing driver bit or drill bit

(Fig. 6)

Hold the ring and turn the sleeve counterclockwise to

open the chuck jaws.

Place the bit in the chuck as far as it will go. Hold the ring

firmly and turn the sleeve clockwise to tighten the chuck.

To remove the bit, hold the ring and turn the sleeve coun-

terclockwise.

When not using the driver bit, keep it in the bit holders.

Bits 45 mm long can be kept there.

OPERATION

Screwdriving operation

For model 6017D/6018D

Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and

apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool. Release the trig-

ger just as the screw bottoms out. If the trigger is not

released, the screw may strip out the hole or the screw

and/or bit may be damaged.

For model 6019D

Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and

apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then

increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger

as soon as the clutch cuts in.

CAUTION:

• Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight in the

screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.

NOTE:

• When driving wood screws, predrill pilot holes to make

driving easier and to prevent splitting of the workpiece.

See the chart.

Drilling operation (Fig. 7)

First, turn the adjusting ring so that the pointer points to

the marking (6019D). Then proceed as follows.

Drilling in wood

When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with

wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw

makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the workpiece.

Drilling in metal

To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole, make

an indentation with a center-punch and hammer at the

point to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the indenta-

tion and start drilling.

Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The excep-

tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.

CAUTION:

• Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up the

drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will only serve

to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool perfor-

mance and shorten the service life of the tool.

• There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit at

the time of hole break through. Hold the tool firmly and

exert care when the bit begins to break through the

workpiece.

• A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the

reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to back

out. However, the tool may back out abruptly if you do

not hold it firmly.

• Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar

hold-down device.

• If the tool is operated continuously until the battery car-

tridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for 15 min-

utes before proceeding with a fresh battery.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-

tery cartridge is removed before attempting to perform

inspection or maintenance.

To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,

any other maintenance or adjustment should be per-

formed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always

using Makita replacement parts.
