Technote: Auto Stop Mode Explained

Some Makita Impact Wrenches are equipped with the Auto-Stop feature. Three forward and three reverse Auto-Stop modes provide increased efficiency to reduce the possibility of damaged materials and lost fasteners. The forward Auto-Stop modes allows the user to apply more torque while keeping within an expected range. The reverse Auto-Stop modes are engineered for more control when removing a fastener, which helps reduce lost fasteners when working overhead or in tight spaces.
