Model DTW285
Work mode: impact tightening of fasteners of the maxi-
mum capacity of the tool
Vibration emission (a
h
) : 11.5 m/s
2
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s

NOTE:
The declared vibration total value(s) has been
measured in accordance with a standard test method
and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
NOTE:
The declared vibration total value(s) may also
be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
The vibration emission during actual
use of the power tool can differ from the declared val
-
ue(s) depending on the ways in which the tool is used
especially what kind of workpiece is processed.
WARNING:
Be sure to identify safety measures
to protect the operator that are based on an estima-
tion of exposure in the actual conditions of use (tak-
ing account of all parts of the operating cycle such
as the times when the tool is switched off and when
it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

Cordless impact wrench safety warnings
1.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the fastener
may contact hidden wiring.
Fasteners contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
2.

3.
Check the impact socket carefully for wear,
cracks or damage before installation.
4.
Hold the tool firmly.
5.
Keep hands away from rotating parts.
6.

Always be sure you have a firm footing.
Be sure no one is below when using the tool in
high locations.
8.
The proper fastening torque may differ
depending upon the kind or size of the bolt.
Check the torque with a torque wrench.
