SWITCH TRIGGER
See Figure 2, page 11.
To turn the impact driver
ON, depress the switch trigger. To
turn it
OFF, release the switch trigger.
VARIABLE SPEED
See Figure 2, page 11.
This tool has a variable speed switch that delivers higher
speed with increased trigger pressure. Speed is controlled
by the amount of switch trigger depression.
NOTE: You might hear a whistling or ringing noise from
the switch during use. Do not be concerned; this is a
normal part of the switch function.
DIRECTION OF ROTATION SELECTOR
(FORWARD/REVERSE/CENTER LOCk)
See Figure 2, page 11.
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled by
a selector located above the switch trigger. With the impact
driver held in normal operating position, the direction of rota-
tion selector should be positioned to the left of the switch
trigger for driving. The driving direction is reversed when the
selector is to the right of the switch trigger.
Setting the direction of rotation selector in the
OFF (center
lock) position will lock the switch trigger to help reduce the
possibility of accidental starting when not in use.
CAUTION:
To prevent gear damage, always allow the coupler
to come to a complete stop before changing the
direction of rotation.
To stop the impact driver, release the switch trigger and allow
the coupler to come to a complete stop.
NOTE: The impact driver will not run unless the direction of
rotation selector is pushed fully to the left or right.
Avoid running the driver at low speeds for extended periods
of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may
cause the driver to become overheated. If this occurs, cool
the driver by running it without a load and at full speed.
INSTALLING/REMOVING BATTERY PACk
See Figure 3, page 11.
To install the battery pack:
Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rota-
tion (forward/reverse/center lock) selector in center posi-
tion.
Align raised rib on battery pack with the groove inside
the impact driver.
Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack
snap in place and battery pack is secured before begin-
ning operation.
OPERATION
WARNING:
Always remove battery pack from your tool when
you are assembling parts, making adjustments,
cleaning, or when not in use. Removing battery
pack will prevent accidental starting that could
cause serious personal injury.
To remove the battery pack:
Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation
selector in center position.
Depress the latches on the sides of the battery pack.
The battery pack will disconnect in the direction to be
removed.
INSTALLING BITS
See Figure 4, page 11.
Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of
rotation selector in the center position.
Remove the battery pack from the impact driver.
Pull the coupler away from the driver (1).
Insert driver bit to be used into the coupler (2).
Release the coupler (3).
Pull on the bit to make sure it is secured in the coupler.
There may be some play in the installed bit; this is
normal.
NOTE: Use only impact quality bits with a locking
groove.
WARNING:
Make sure the bit is secured in the coupler before
using the impact driver. Failure to do so could
cause serious personal injury.
REMOVING BITS
See Figure 4, page 11.
Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of
rotation selector in the center position.
Remove the battery pack from the impact driver.
Pull the coupler away from the driver.
Remove driver bit from the coupler.
CAUTION:
The impact driver is not designed to be used as
a drill.
DRIVING OR REMOVING SCREWS
See Figures 5 - 6, page 11.
Place the direction of rotation selector in the correct posi-
tion 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 screw is driven, impacting will begin.
