What happens here

Beyond the numbered torque settings, there's typically a separate 'drill bit' icon setting which disengages the clutch entirely. When this setting is selected, the drill will provide its maximum, full torque output continuously without any clutch slippage. This mode is specifically intended for drilling holes, where consistent, uninhibited power is essential to cut through material efficiently.

Goal: Understand the full torque setting for drilling.

What they say

Hide

way up to higher torque at 18. Once you switch this over again, you have the essentially drilling function for drill bits or spade bits or whatever the case may be, and this takes the clutch completely out of it. So, this is high torque all the time. So, if you drywall for instance, I'm going to go two, and we'll try it at one. We'll see how that goes. So, this is two and one.
