OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3. Direction-of-Rotation Selector
(Forward/Center Lock/Reverse)
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled
by a selector located above the trigger switch. With
the impact driver held in the normal operating position,
pointing away from you:
a. Position the direction-of-rotation selector (C) to the
left of the tool for forward rotation.
b. Position the direction-of-rotation selector to the right
of the tool for reverse rotation.
c. Setting the selector in the center (locked) position
helps reduce the possibility of accidental start-up
when not in use.
NOTICE: To prevent gear damage, always allow the
impact driver to come to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation.
NOTICE: The impact driver will not operate unless the direction-of-rotation selector is engaged
fully to the left or right.
4. LED Worklight
The LED worklight (B), located above the variable-
speed trigger switch (D) on the impact driver, will
illuminate when the variable-speed trigger switch
is depressed. This provides additional light on the
surface of the workpiece for operation in lower-
light areas. The LED worklight will automatically
turn off approximately 10 seconds after the trigger
has been released.
a. The LED worklight will blink rapidly if the tool
has stopped working in order to protect internal
circuits; please wait for the tool to cool down,
at which point it can be started again.
b. The LED worklight will blink slowly to indicate
that the battery charge is very low.
