Intended use
The tool is intended for screw driving in wood, metal, and plastic.
ENF002-1
Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as
indicated on the nameplate, and can only be operated on a single-phase AC
supply. They are double-insulated in accordance with European Standard and
can, therefore, also be used from sockets without earth wire.
ENG102-1
For European countries only
Noise
The typical A-weighted noise level is determined according to EN60745:
Sound pressure level (LpA) : 82 dB(A)
Sound power level (LWA) : 93 dB(A)
Uncertainty (K) : 3 dB(A)
Wear ear protection
ENG204-2
Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) determined according to
EN60745:
Work mode: screwdriving without impact
Vibration emission (ah) : 2.5 m/s2 or less
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s2
ENG901-1
- The declared vibration emission value has been measured in accordance with the standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
- The declared vibration emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
- The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared emission value depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
- Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

General Power Tool Safety
Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire,
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. GEB017-2
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with the product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to screwdriver safety rules. If you use this power tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury.
- Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
- Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations.
- Hold the tool firmly.
- Keep hands away from rotating parts.
- Do not touch the bit or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING: MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: · Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged
before adjusting or checking the function on the tool
Depth adjustment
Fig.1
The depth can be adjusted by turning the lock ring. Turn it in the “B”
direction for less depth and in the “A” direction for more depth.
One full turn of the lock ring equals a 1.5 mm change in depth. Adjust the
lock ring so that the distance between the tip of the locator and the screw
head is approximately 1 mm as shown in the figures. Drive a trial screw into
your material or a piece of duplicate material. If the depth is still not
suitable for the screw, continue adjusting until you obtain the proper depth
setting.
Fig.2 Fig.3
Switch action Fig.4
CAUTION:
- Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position when released. To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop. For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger and then push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger fully, then release it.
NOTE:
- Even with the switch on and the motor running, the bit will not rotate until you fit the point of the bit in the screw head and apply forward pressure to engage the clutch.
Lighting up the lamps For Model FS4200,FS4300,FS4300A,FS6300,FS6300A,FS6300R Fig.5
CAUTION:
- Do not look in the light or see the source of light directly. To turn on the lamp, pull the trigger. Release the trigger to turn it off.
NOTE:
- Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of the lamp.
Be careful not to scratch the lens of the lamp, or it may lower the illumination.
Reversing switch action Fig.6
CAUTION:
- Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
- Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool.
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of rotation. Move the
reversing switch lever to the position (A side) for clockwise rotation or the
position (B side) for counterclockwise rotation.
Hook
Fig.7
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
- Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing the bit To remove the bit, first remove the locator by
pulling the lock ring away from the gear housing..
Fig.8
Grasp the bit with a pair of pliers and pull the bit out of the magnetic bit
holder. Sometimes, it helps to wiggle the bit with the pliers as you pull. To
install the bit, push it firmly into the magnetic bit holder. Then install the
locator by pushing it firmly back onto the gear housing.
Fig.9
Installing removable cord adapter
For Model FS6300R
Fig.10
Insert the Removable Cord Adapter as far as it goes so that the marking on the
end of the Removable Cord Adapter on the side of connecting to the power
supply cord is aligned to the marking on the other end of the Removable Cord
Adapter on the side of connecting to the tool. Turn the Removable Cord Adapter
clockwise until it is locked with a lock button.
Fig.11
at this time the marking on the end of the Removable Cord Adapter on the side
of the power supply cord is aligned to the marking on the other end of the
Removable Cord Adapter on the side of connecting to the tool.
Fig.12
Removing removable cord adapter
Fig.13
Rotate the Removable Cord Adapter counterclockwise until it stops while
pressing the lower part of the lock button.
Then pull the Removable Cord Adapter in that position.
Fig.14
Use of locator holder
Fig.15
The locator can be temporarily held on the locator holder during replacing bit
or use without a locator. To hold the locator, position the trapezoidal holes
of the locator on the swells of the locator holder and push it in.
OPERATION
Fig.16
Fit the screw on the point of the bit and place the point of the screw on the
surface of the workpiece to be fastened. Apply pressure to the tool and start
it. Withdraw the tool as soon as the clutch cuts in. Then release the switch
trigger.
CAUTION:
- When fitting the screw onto the point of the bit, be careful not to push in on the screw. If the screw is pushed in, the clutch will engage and the screw will rotate suddenly. This could damage a workpiece or cause an injury.
- Make sure that the bit is inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.
- Hold the tool only by the handle when performing an operation. Do not touch the metal part.
