determine whether the tool will operate correctly and perform
as designed.
18. The tool should be grounded while in use to protect the operator
from electric shock.
19. It only takes a slight amount of pressure for a push-to-start tool
to go into operaon.
Cauons in Operaon
1. If there are any problems, do not disassemble the tool. Stop
operaons and contact ASG immediately.
2. Never lubricate the tool with aerosol oil or similar lubricants.
3. Do not drop, hit, or abuse the tool.
4. Never use chemicals to wipe the body cover
5. Use only the correct voltage.
6. Do not pull the AC cord when unplugging from the power
outlet. Grasp the plug.
7. For safety use, do not set the torque adjusng nut higher than 10
on the torque adjusng scale
8. Use the tool intermiently: (Example: 0.5 seconds ON, 4.5
seconds OFF)
9. Do not ghten more than 720 tapping screws in an hour.
10. This tool is not for ghtening wood screws
11. Set the power switch to OFF before pung the tool in reverse.
12. If the tool is not being used, turn the tool o and unplug the AC
cord plug.
13. In push-to-start mode the driver automacally goes on when
pressure is applied to the bit end.
14. In push-to-start mode do not raise the driver from the screw
head unl rotaon has stopped.
15. When a tool with an internal counter is used in combinaon
with an external counter, the external counter supercedes the
internal counter of the tool. Turn o the screwdriver’s counng
funcon before use.
16. When the output seng for Power HI/LOW is changed, the
screwdriver speed changes. In such cases, pay aenon to the
counter mer set value and reverse counter mer set value.

Important: Please read and save the operang instrucons.
Warning: When using electric tools, the following basic safety
precauons should always be adhered to in order to reduce the
risk of re, electric shock, or personal injury.
Precauons
1. Keep Work Area Clean: Cluered areas and benches can result
in injuries.
2. Consider Work Area Environment: Do not expose tools to rain.
Do not use tools in damp or wet locaons. Keep work area
well lit. Never use the tool in an area with dangerous objects
present. (gasoline, benzene, thinner, gas glue, metallic objects,
etc.)
3. Secure Work: Use clamps or a vice to hold work piece.
4. Guard Against Electric Shock: Prevent body contact with
grounded surfaces.
5. Keep Away From Children and Unauthorized Personnel: Do not
allow children or unauthorized personnel to use the tool.
6. Store Idle Tools: When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry
and high or locked-up place.
7. Remove Adjusng Keys And Wrenches: Make a habit of
checking to see that keys and adjusng wrenches are removed
from the tool before turning it on.
8. Use The Correct Tool: Use the tool for the correct work for its
rated power and design.
9. Dress Properly: Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they
can be caught in moving parts. Wear protecve head wear to
contain long hair.
10. Use Safety Glasses: Also use a face or dust mask if the operaon
involves dust.
11. Do Not Abuse The Cord: Never carry the tool by its cord or pull
it to disconnect from the power outlet. Keep the cord away
from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
12. Do Not Overreach: Maintain proper foong and balance at all
mes.
13. Maintain Tools With Care: Keep tools clean for beer and
safer performance. Follow instrucons for lubricang and
changing accessories. To use the tool for an extended period
of me safely, perform periodical inspecons on the tool and if
damaged, contact ASG. Keep hands dry, clean, and free from oil
and grease. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if
damaged.
14. Disconnect Tools: When the tool is not in use, such as aaching
and removing the bit, inspecon or cleaning, disconnect the tool
from the power outlet.
15. Avoid Unintenonal Starng: Ensure that the switch is o when
plugging in. Do not carry the tool with nger on the switch.
16. Stay Alert: Always remain vigilant, use common sense, and do
not operate the tool when you are red.
17. Check Damaged Parts: Before using the tool, a damaged
protecve cover or other parts should be carefully checked to

Operang Procedure
1. Connect the power cord plug to AC outlet.
2. Turn power switch on and check if the LED is illuminated. If it is not
lit, contact ASG. Aer conrming it is lit, turn the power switch o.
3. Connect the driver cord to the power source.
4. Use the torque adjustment nut to select the desired output seng.
5. Aach the bit to the screwdriver
6. Turn the FOR/REV switch to OFF and connect the driver plug to an
AC power outlet.
7. Turn on power supply and set the power output seng to 1(20V)
or 2(30V).

9. Operate the clutch unl the screw is ghtened to the set torque
value.
10. Always turn the power o before reversing the rotaon direcon
seng.
11. When loosening a ghtened screw, turn the FOR/REV switch to
REV and loosen in the reverse direcon.
Push-to-Start Mode
Unscrew the switch lever sha screw to detach the switch lever.
Using a tweezer, slide the selecon switch to P (Push). Pushing the

Aaching a Bit
• Cauon: When aaching the bit, always
ensure that the driver FOR/OFF/REV switch is
set to OFF or that the driver power plug has
been removed from the AC power outlet.
• Use the correct bit size. To install the bit, push
or pull the joint sha collar at the end of the
driver upwards and insert the bit. Check that

Torque Adjustment Procedure
• BLG-4000 has two torque adjustment springs – Red spring is
for high torque measurement, white spring is for low torque
measurement.
• Use the torque adjustment nut to select the desired
output seng. Note that this seng should be taken as
an approximate value. Adjust the seng by loosening the
adjustment nut stopper and adjusng the torque adjustment
nut. When the seng has been made, re-ghten the torque
adjustment nut stopper securely. Repeat this process to
determined the appropriate ghtness. Use a torque tester to
verify.
• BLG-5000: Use an allen wrench to adjust the scale.

Pulse System
The pulse system is a mechanism using an electric signal (pulse) that
occurs during motor revoluons. By installing several fasteners into
the assembly the screwdriver learns the numbers of motor revoluons
required to correctly ghten the fasteners to the desired torque. The
driver then establishes the minimum to maximum revoluons for
process acceptance and displays the result of screw ghtening with the
LED green and red lights on the unit.
Screw Count Display Secon/Set Value Display Secon
• In the normal mode, the screw fastening count set
value is displayed rst, and aer starng the count, the

before starng actual fastening again in order to avoid
errors.
“----” is shown on the
