OPERATION
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 8.
CAUTION:
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.

paddle switch. Start the bit slowly for more control.
