TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK
See Figure 2, page 10.
Lock switch trigger on the tool by placing the direction
of rotation selector in center position.
Locate latches on end of battery pack and depress to
release battery pack from the tool.
Remove battery pack from the tool.
WARNING:
Battery tools are always in operating condition.
Therefore, switch should always be locked when not in
use or carrying at your side.
CAUTION:
The metal surface may become hot during use. Avoid
contact with it to avoid possible burn injury.
SWITCH TRIGGER
See Figure 3, page 10.
To turn the tool ON, depress the switch trigger. To turn it
OFF, release the switch trigger.
SWITCH LOCK
See Figure 3, page 10.
The switch trigger can be locked in the OFF (center) position.
This feature can be used to prevent the possibility of
accidental starting when not in use. To lock switch trigger,
place the direction of rotation selector in center position.
REVERSIBLE
See Figure 3, page 10.
This tool has the feature of being reversible. The direction of
rotation is controlled by a selector located above the switch
trigger. With the tool held in normal operating position, the
direction of rotation selector should be positioned to the left
of the switch for tightening. The direction is reversed when
the selector is to the right of the switch. When the selector
is in center position, the switch trigger is locked.
VARIABLE SPEED
See Figure 3, page 10.
This tool has a variable speed switch that delivers higher
speed and torque with increased trigger pressure. Speed is
controlled by the amount of switch trigger depression.
To stop, release switch trigger and allow the coupler to come
to a complete stop.
CAUTION:
To prevent gear damage, always allow coupler to come
to a complete stop before changing the direction of
rotation.
OPERATION
BUILT-IN COUPLER
See Figure 3, page 10.
The tool has a built-in coupler. The coupler has been de-
signed to accept 1/4 in. hex bits.
BIT STORAGE
See Figure 4, page 10.
When not in use, bits provided with the tool can be placed in
the storage area located at the bottom of the tool handle.
INSTALLING BITS
See Figure 5, page 10.
Lock switch trigger on the tool 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.
REMOVING BITS
See Figure 5, page 10.
Lock switch trigger or the drill by placing the direction of
rotation selector in center position.
Slide the coupler forward and hold in position.
Pull bit straight out of 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.
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, as seen in figure 6.
CAUTION:
The impact driver is not designed to be used as a drill.
DRIVING OR REMOVING SCREWS
See Figures 5 - 6, page 10.
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.
