■ Power Supplies
The Brushless Driver must be operated together with a PowerPack.
Powering the Brushless Driver with the Hios T-45BL and the
T-70BL Power Pack will insure operation of the driver at its
full capacity.

T-70BL1111■ Cautions to Observe When Using
1. In push-to-start mode, the driver will begin turning in
response to only a slight pressure. Take care that it isunder complete control when in push-to-start mode.
2. The driver can be damaged by accidental falls or impacts.
3. Take care to avoid exposing the driver to oil based-5-substances.
4. The driver does not require lubrication and should not belubricated.

■ Pre-operating Preparations
1. Check that the proper Power Pack is being used with thedriver.
2. Connect the Power Pack to plug AC100 to 240 V .
3. Turn the power switch on, check to see that the powerswitch light of the Power Pack goes on, then switch thepower off. If the light didn't go on, replace the fuse with thespare provided with the pack, referring to the Power Packspecifications.
4. If you want to use as "Push start", follow the instructions"5" below.
5. To operate in Push-to-start Mode.
BL-3000
Use tweezers to switch lever start/
push start.
BL-5000
Rotate 1 the hex head screw todetach 2 the switch lever andset the start switch to the "PUSH"
position.
Use it without attaching the hex
head screw and the switch lever.
BL-7000

To convert the starting mechanism from lever-start to push-to-start,
remove the hex head screw and switch lever, turn the switch leverupside-down and use the hex head screw to re-fasten the switch
lever.

6. Connect the driver power cord to the Power Pack. (Bothends of this cord have the same type of connector. Be surethat the interlocking guide fits together properly and tighten
the joint ring.)-6-■ Operating Procedure
1. Attach a bit to the driver. (See "Attaching a Bit" below)• If using model BL-3000, remove the torque adjustment nut
cover before attaching a bit.
2. Set the driver to clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation as
desired, then push the switch lever to check that the driver
turns in the correct direction. After checking, be sure theswitch is left on the clockwise setting.
Caution: Always turn the power off before reversing therotation direction setting.

3. Make the desired torque adjustment setting. (See "TorqueAdjustment" below.)
4. Begin fastening by fitting the end of the bit to the head of ascrew to be tightened and pulling the switch lever.
• In push-to-start mode, the driver automatically goes onwhen pressure is applied to the bit end.
5. The clutch will immediately stop rotation when the preset
torque level is reached. At this point, raise the driver fromthe screw and release the switch lever. Repeat this cyclefor each tightening operation.
• In push-to-start mode, do not raise the driver from thescrew head until rotation has stopped.
6. Set rotation direction to counterclockwise to loosen ascrew. Very tightly fastened screws can be loosened byrepeatedly applying the driver to the screw to obtain shortbursts of rotation force.

■ Attaching a BitCaution

Be sure to either turn the powerswitch off or disconnect the power
cord before attempting to change
bits. Failure to do so could be
especially dangerous if the driver is
set to push-to-start mode. In either
case, unexpected start up of thedriver could result in injury.

If using model BL-3000, BL-5000 or BL7000, raise the joint shaft collar at thebottom of the tool, then insert the bit.
• As for BL-2000, press the Joint-shaft
collar towards inside of the screwdriverand insert the bit.
• If using model BL-3000, push the joint
shaft collar into the tool to attach the bit.
Then pull on it to be sure it is properlyattached.

Torque is controlled by the tension on a spring inside thetorque adjustment nut. If set the nut tighter, the output torqueis higher.
• The adjustment torque scale does not give the actual
output torque. Please regard the output torque graph as
an approximate guide.

■ Torque Adjustment Procedure
1. If you have a predetermined torque value, set that valueon the scale using the torque adjustment nut.
• The BL-2000 Electric Screwdriver have ‘Double nut
system’ (Nut fixing ring and Torque adjusting nut) to avoid
loosening from shock or vibration to the Screwdriver.
● BL-2000• At first, keep the Nut fixing ring
to fit the scale at which,  if you
want to adjust.
• Then turn the Torque adjustingnut toward the Nut fixing ring.
• Lastly, to avoid the loosening ofthe ‘Torque adjusting nut fasten
strongly the Nut fixing ring byholding the ‘Torque adjustingnut’.

3. Readjust the torque setting, tighter or looser, as necessary.
Repeat the procedure until you arrive at the desired torquesetting.
It is recommended that a Hios torque meter be used tomeasure torque. Use the HP series for measurement of thedriver's torque setting and the HDP series or the HDM series
to measure loosening or tightening torque of screws.

■ If Repairs are Requested
Check the items listed in the table below, and if a malfunction
is found, contact your store of purchase of our company.
Always include your warranty card when sending in the driverfor repairs.
