Operations

Pre-operating preparation

Connect the power cord plug to AC outlet.
Turn the power switch to “I”, and check if the LED light is lit.
If the LED light is not lit, inquiry to the distributor. After confirming that the LED light is lit, set the power switch to “0”, OFF.
Connect the driver cord to the power source.
How to change to “Push” start.
Unscrew the “Switch lever shaft screw” and then take off the “Switch Lever”. Using sharp parts, such as tweezers, move the selection SW to “P” (push) near “L ←→P” mark.

Note: Do not press or hit the SW, otherwise you may damage the SW or body case.
Do not use the screwdriver with the switch lever shaft screw removed. It may cause a malfunction.

Operating procedure

Attach a bit to the driver.
Turn on the power switch and set the power output setting to “1” or “2”.
Output display setting of each power supply
- 2: (30V), 1: (20V)
Set the FOR/REV switch of the driver to “FOR” (forward rotation).
Set the tightening torque of the driver by torque adjustment nut.
Start the driver.
- After placing the bit end on the screw head, press the switch lever. The driver will start and the screw will be tightened on the component.
When the screw is tightened with the torque value set to the driver, the clutch works and the rotation stops immediately.
To loosen the tightened screw, set the FOR/REV switch to “REV” (reverse rotation). The screw will be loosened after a few impacts.

Attaching a bit
While attaching or de-taching a bit, turn off the power switch or pull out the driver cord from the driver to disconnect the power.

BLG-4000
For BLG-4000, pull-down the “Joint-shaft collar” towards the body case of it and insert the bit.
BLG-5000
For BLG-5000, pull-up the “Joint-shaft collar” and insert the bit.
Check that the bit is fixed firmly.
Use genuine parts for HIOS Shank H4 (∅4) or H5 (∅5).

How to adjust the torque
BLG-4000 has two torque adjustment springs: for high torque measurement, use the spring installed in the driver (red spring), and for lower torque measurement, use the spring attached to the driver (white spring). Use either of the springs according to work type.
For torque setting, the “Output torque guide” can be used as a guideline to get the rough torque value.

The torque can be adjusted by adjusting the spring pres-sure in the torque adjustment nut. The torque adjustment nut can be tightened or loosened by squeezing or relaxing it, respectively.

How to adjust the torque

BLG-4000
If you already know the screw tightening torque value, by referring to the guide, set the nut so that the scale line comes just above the de-sired torque value scale (1 to 8).
BLG-5000
Using the “Allen wrench”, set the torque referring the torque adjust scale “1 to 8”.
Try to fasten and find the right position of the scale.
Test the screw tightening with the set position and until you find the appropriate torque value.

Rotation speed
The standard power output of the driver is set to 30V.
Power output setting display

2: 30V, 1: 20V
To decrease the rotation speed according to work type, set 20V as the power output.

Using the screw counter
You can use BLG-4000-OPC or BLG-5000-OPC by connecting it to the power supply BLOP-STC3 with screw counter or to the separate counter BLOP-SC1. For details of handling, please refer to the operation manual of the screw counter to be used.

Notice: When this unit is used in combination with the existing HIOS external counter, the driver counter does not synchronized with the external counter. So, use them based on the external counter function.

Before requesting our repair service, troubleshoot ac-cording to the following table:

Problem	Cause and solution
Bit falls off or cannot be installed

Are you using the bit suitable to your model?

Have you installed the bit properly?Check the description in the opera- tion manual for installing the bit.
If any of the above is not the case, or the problem cannot be solved, stop operation immediately and con- tact your distributor for repair.

Weak force, cannot tighten the screw sufficiently|

Are you using HIOS genuine parts and specified springs?
Check the torque value again in the “Output torque guide” for the driver.
If any of the above are not the case, or the problem cannot be solved, stop operation immediately and con- tact your distributor for repair.

Driver does not rotate.|

Check the power supply.
Refer to the “Pre-operating preparation” on this paper.
If the above is not the case, or the problem cannot be solved, stop operation immediately and contact your distributor for repair.

Use the HIOS torque meter to check the screw tightening torque.
