VARIABLE SPEED SWITCH TRIGGER
See Figure 2, page 8.
The variable speed switch trigger delivers higher speed with
increased trigger pressure and lower speed with decreased
trigger pressure.
To turn the tool ON, depress the switch trigger. To turn it
OFF, release the switch trigger and allow the chuck to come
to a complete stop.
DIRECTION OF ROTATION SELECTOR
(FORWARD/REVERSE/CENTER LOCK)
See Figure 2, page 8.
Set the direction of rotation selector in the OFF (center lock)
position to lock the switch trigger and help prevent accidental
starting when not in use.
Position the direction of rotation selector to the left of the
switch trigger for forward operation. Position the selector to
the right of the switch trigger to reverse the direction.
NOTE: The tool will not run unless the direction of rotation
selector is pushed fully to the left or right.
NOTICE:
To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck to
come to a complete stop before changing the direction
of rotation.
WARNING:
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Lock
the switch when not in use or carrying at your side,
when installing or removing the battery pack, and when
installing or removing bits.
BUILT-IN COUPLER
See Figure 3, page 8.
The tool has a built-in coupler. The coupler has been de-
signed to accept 1/4 in. hex bits.
INSTALLING/REMOVING BITS
See Figure 3, page 8.
To install bits:
 Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation
selector in center position.
 Slide the coupler forward and hold in position.
 Insert bit straight into coupler.
 Slide the coupler back slowly and release.
OPERATION
To remove bits:
 Lock the switch trigger.
 Slide the coupler forward and hold in position.
 Pull the bit straight out of the coupler.
WARNING:
Make sure the bit is secured in the coupler before using
the impact driver. Failure to do so could cause serious
personal injury.
DRIVING OR REMOVING SCREWS
See Figures 4 - 5, page 8.
WARNING:
Do not drive a screw where there is likely to be hidden
wiring behind the surface. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock
the operator. If you must drive a screw where hidden wire
may be present, always hold tool by insulated gripping
surfaces (handle) when performing the operation to
prevent a shock to the operator.
NOTICE:
The impact driver is not designed to be used as a drill.
 Place the direction of rotation selector in the correct
position for the operation.
 Hold the impact driver with one hand.
 Place the bit on the screw head and slowly depress the
switch trigger. Start the bit slowly for more control.
 As the screw is driven, impacting will begin.
