Direction-of-Rotation (Forward/Center-Lock/Reverse) Selector
WARNING
After tool use, lock the direction-of-rotation selector in the “OFF”
position (center-lock) to help prevent accidental starts and possible
injury .
Your tool is equipped with a direction-of-rotation selector, located above the variable-speed
trigger switch. This selector is used to change the direction of rotation of the bit and to lock the
variable-speed trigger in the “OFF” (center-lock) position (Fig. 3).
a. Position the direction-of-rotation selector to the far left of the tool for forward rotation to
tighten bolts and nuts.
b. Position the direction-of-rotation selector to the far right of the tool for reverse rotation to
loosen bolts and nuts.
c. Position the switch in the “OFF” (center-lock) position to help reduce the possibility of
accidental starting when the tool is not in use.
NOTICE:
To prevent gear damage, always allow the impact wrench to come to a complete
stop before changing the direction of rotation.
NOTICE:
The impact wrench will not run unless the direction-of-rotation selector is engaged
fully to the left or to the right.

Variable-Speed Trigger Switch
Your tool is equipped with a variable-speed
trigger switch. The tool can be turned “ON” or

The variable-speed trigger switch delivers
higher speed with increased trigger pressure
and lower speed with decreased trigger
pressure (Fig. 4).
