Additional Specific Safety Rules for Collated Magazine Attachment

• The collated magazine is to only be used with the DeWALT DCF620 screwdriver.
• Observe all operating instructions and safety regulations contained in the manual for the screwdriver the magazine accessory is used with.
• Before use, ensure that the magazine accessory is properly attached to the tool.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Disconnect the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• When driving screws, never reach into the magazine accessory. Keep hands clear of the advancing mechanism and the spot where the screw is being driven.
• Do not use the magazine accessory as a gripping surface.
• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
• Use only screw strips that are suitable to this magazine. Only insert screw strips when the battery is disconnected from the screwdriver and the trigger is locked.

WARNING: We recommend the use of a residual current device with a residual current rating of 30mA or less.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Setting Magazine Screw Length (Fig. C)
This magazine is designed for 25–57 mm screw lengths. Failure to set the correct screw length can cause screws to not be driven accurately which can result in the failure to advance to the next screw or screws not being driven properly. The shoe has marked specific slots for each of the most common screws, however this attachment can still drive any size screw between 25–57 mm. To accommodate for less common screws adjust to the next longest slot.

CAUTION: Do not adjust while a screw strip is in the magazine.

1. Slide screw length adjustment tab  2  to the left.
2. Holding the screw length adjustment tab in place, adjust the shoe  7  to the desired length.
3. Release the screw length adjustment tab. Make sure that the locking pin has fully returned and is in the correct position.

Inserting Collated Screw Strips (Fig. D)

NOTICE: Use only screw strips that are suitable to this magazine. Only insert screw strips when the screwdriver power is off and the trigger is locked.
Proper use of collated strips will reduce the risk of injury, reduce jams and prevents screws from damaging workpiece. For best performance use new, undamaged strips free of debris.

1. Take a collated strip, holding the plastic portion, and feed from the bottom of the screw guide 1 and into the bottom of the advancing mechanism 5 .
2. Continue feeding the strip until the first screw is one slot below the driver bit.

Setting Screw Depth (Fig. A)
Turn fine depth adjustment 3 counterclockwise (as viewed from behind the tool) to make the screw head stop raised from the workpiece.
Turn fine depth adjustment 3 clockwise to make the screw head stop deeper into the workpiece.
There is a fine depth adjustment indicator 4 to show where in the adjustment range the tool is. When the slider is furthest from the tool the screw head will stop in the most raised position. When the slider is closest to the screwdriver tool the screw head will stop in its deepest position.

Driving Screws (Fig. A)

1. Before driving screws, ensure screwdriver drive direction is switched to forward position.
   NOTE: Always hold the screwdriver perpendicular to workpiece.

2. With the magazine installed on the screwdriver, position shoe 7 on workpiece in location where screw is to be driven.

3. Switch the screwdriver on by holding the trigger in the on position. Continue to hold trigger or engage the trigger lock-on.

4. Apply pressure against workpiece. This will advance screw into alignment with screwdriver bit.

5. Continue to apply consistent pressure until screw is driven in completely and screwdriver clutches disengage.

6. Lift screwdriver from workpiece.
   The magazine is designed to drive screws completely into workpiece only. Once screwdriver is lifted, adjustments to screw must be made by first removing magazine.

Rotating the Collated Attachment
This attachment has the ability to rotate without being taken off the drywall screwdriver. To rotate, grip the top portion with one hand, while holding the drywall screwdriver with the other then rotate. An audible “click” indicates the magazine is in each of the available positions.
