8. Do not disassemble charger. Take it to an electrician or power tool repairer when service or
repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or
fire.
9. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any
cleaning. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
10. Never attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
11. DO NOT store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or
exceed 104ºF (such as inside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
12. The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power (120 volts). Do not
attempt to use it on any other voltage!
13. The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. First read the safety instructions and then
follow the charging notes and procedures.
14. The longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the
air temperature is between 64-75ºF. Do not charge the battery pack in an air temperature below
50ºF or above 104ºF. This is important and will prevent damage to the battery pack.
15. Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is seriously damaged or is completely worn out. The
battery can explode in a fire.
16. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack
breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.
17. During charging, the battery must be placed in a well-ventilated area.
IMPACT WRENCH USE AND CARE
•
Do not modify the Impact Wrench in any way.
Unauthorized modification may impair the
function and/or safety and could affect the life of the equipment. There are specific applications
for which the Impact Wrench was designed.
•
Always check of damaged or worn out parts before using the Impact Wrench.
Broken
parts will affect the Impact Wrench operation. Replace or repair damaged or worn parts
immediately.
•
Store idle Impact Wrench.
When Impact Wrench is not in use, store it in a secure place out of
the reach of children. Inspect it for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.
•
ALWAYS use the impact wrench in the manner and for the functions described in these
instructions.
•
ALWAYS ensure the machine is not moving with the switchbar in the center position when
changing sockets etc. Use only Impact Wrench sockets; DO NOT use standard sockets.
•
ALWAYS finish tightening wheel nuts or engine parts with a torque wrench or suitable spanner
to the correct torque as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
•
ALWAYS avoid excessive use of the wrench. When tightening a nut or bolt, never allow the
wrench to impact more than 8 times - to avoid over tightening — 3 to 4 impacts is normally
sufficient.
•
ALWAYS use outdoor extension leads if working outdoors. Always use an approved cable
extension suitable for the power rating of the battery charger (see specifications), the conductor
size should also be at least the same size or larger than that on the charger. When using a
cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.
