Of course. It is not for drilling but is for screw-driving. Otherwise when you use it to drive a phillips-head screw the bit will keep turning when the screw is in and the screw's head will be ruined. If instead you set the clutch so that the drill will stop turning near that point it will be able to stay in the head and keep the screw turning.

ABSOLUTELY!!! By the way it is a tork setting not a clutch. I always use this feature when driving screws. It prevents the screw head from stripping out, and keeps the threads of the screw from stripping out in the wood. Doesn't everybody?

Yeah, but most of the time it is set on high. Brass kickplates(and brass screws) and maybe one or two other applications dictate that I turn it down. Metal cuts better at a slower rpm, also.
