NOTE: 

• 

When fastening bolt M8 or smaller, carefully adjust 
pressure on the switch trigger so that the screw is 
not damaged. 

• 

Hold the tool pointed straight at the bolt or nut 
without applying excessive pressure on the tool. 

• 

Excessive fastening torque may damage the 
bolt/nut or socket. Before starting your job, always 
perform a test operation to determine the proper 
fastening time for your bolt or nut. Especially for 
the bolt smaller than M8, perform the above test 
operation to prevent the trouble on socket or bolt, 
etc. 

• 

If the tool is operated continuously until the battery 
cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for 
15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery 
cartridge. 

The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of 
factors including the following. After fastening, always 
check the torque with a torque wrench. 

1. 

When the battery cartridge is discharged almost 
completely, voltage will drop and the fastening 
torque will be reduced. 

2. Socket 

• 

Failure to use the correct size socket will 
cause a reduction in the fastening torque. 

• 

A worn socket (wear on the hex end or square 
end) will cause a reduction in the fastening 
torque. 

3. Bolt 

• 

Even though the torque coefficient and the 
class of bolt are the same, the proper 
fastening torque will differ according to the 
diameter of bolt. 

• 

Even though the diameters of bolts are the 
same, the proper fastening torque will differ 
according to the torque coefficient, the class 
of bolt and the bolt length. 

4. 

The use of the universal joint or the extension bar 
somewhat reduces the fastening force of the 
impact wrench. Compensate by fastening for a 
longer period of time. 

5. 

The manner of holding the tool or the material of 
driving position to be fastened will affect the 
torque. 

6.  Operating the tool at low speed will cause a 

reduction in the fastening torque. 

 
 
 

MAINTENANCE 

 

CAUTION: 

• 

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the 
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to 
perform inspection or maintenance. 

• 

Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or 
the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may 
result. 

Replacing carbon brushes

006258 

Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep 
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. 
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same 
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
