To remove the clutch housing from the tool to expose the clutch: Grasp the motor housing firmly with one hand and with the other hand, grasp the clutch housing firmly. Turn the clutch housing clockwise and continue rotation until the clutch housing falls away from the tool.
To install the clutch housing back onto the tool: Grasp the motor housing firmly with one hand and with the other hand, grasp the clutch housing. Thread the clutch housing onto the tool by rotating the clutch housing counter clockwise until the clutch housing is tight against the motor housing. Be careful not to over-tighten. To prevent cross threading, start threading the clutch housing gently onto the motor housing until it gets started.
Torque Units and Conversion Factors

Torque is the application of a force at a radial distance tending to cause rotation. The International Standards Organization (ISO) recommends the following units for denoting torque:
Torque Units

Imperial

Metric

International System

ozf-in-ounce force inch
lbf-in-pound force inch

kgf-cm-kilogram force centimeter

N-m-Newton meter

Example 1:
Convert 10 lbf-in into kgf-cm 10 X 1. 152 = 11.52 kgf-cm

Example 2:
Convert 10 kgf-cm into ozf-in 10 X 13.89 = 138.9 ozf-in

Adjust the 2000 Series Auto Shut-off Clutch:
Adjusting the 2000 series auto shut off clutch requires two crescent wrenches. With the clutch facing as shown in drawing, attach wrench #1 to the 1/4" threaded shaft and wrench #2 to the clutch adjustment nut. Hold wrench #1 firm while rotating wrench #2 clockwise to increase torque value and counter-clockwise to decrease torque value. Use a torque tester to determine exact torque value, such as our Model 4201 or 4202.
Adjust the 2000 Series Cushion Clutch:
To adjust the 2000 series cushion clutch requires a 1/16" hex key and any screwdriver bit. Insert the hex key into the set screw and remove by a counter clockwise motion. Next, holding the clutch as shown in drawing, insert the screwdriver bit into the 1/4" hex female. Turning the screwdriver bit clockwise will increase the torque value, while a counter-clockwise motion will decrease the torque value. The set screw hole needs to be in view of one of the two eyelet holes when torque value is reached. Make sure to screw in clockwise the set screw for each test for torque value or install the clutch back into the tool. Use a torque tester to determine exact torque value, such as our Model 4201 or 4202.
Adjust the 8000 Series Auto Shut-off or Cushion Clutch:
Adjusting an 8000 series auto shut off clutch or cushion clutch requires a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Adjust these clutches while in the tool or out of the tool (as shown in drawing). To adjust the clutch in the tool, rotate the black "C" ring to expose the clutch in the eyelet. Next, rotate the clutch so that the clutch adjustment hole is exposed in the eyelet. With the tool or the clutch facing in the direction shown in the drawing, place the #2 Phillips screwdriver in the clutch adjustment hole. Turn the screwdriver counter-clockwise to increase the torque value, and clockwise to decrease the torque value. Use a torque tester to determine exact torque value, such as our Model 4201 or 4202.
