To keep your impact driver well-maintained,
regularly check if any parts are
misaligned, damaged or broken, or if there's anything else that might affect
its performance. If you notice anything odd, definitely take it for repair
BEFORE
using it.
Work or repairs on any power tool should only be carried out by a
professional. It’s best to leave the really serious stuff to a qualified repair
technician who only uses original replacement parts.
Make sure that anyone using your impact driver or servicing it is
acquainted with this manual. The exception to the rule are children and
infirm people - they shouldn't be using your impact driver even if they
remember every word written here.
Work area safety

Keep your working area tidy and well lit. Accidents are much more likely to
happen in dirty, unorganized, or poorly lit workspaces and can be easily
avoided with basic upkeep.
Your impact driver isn’t waterproof or splash proof. Under no
circumstances should you use it in the rain, spray with water, or immerse in
liquid, or risk the danger of explosion or electrocution.
Do not operate your driver in dusty or explosive areas, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids or gases, for a very simple reason - power
tools may create sparks which could ignite dust or fumes. Kaboom.
Secure any movable workpiece(s) you're working on. A workpiece secured
with suitable clamps or in a vice is much more likely to be steady and stay in
place than one held by hand.
Keep children and bystanders away. Distractions can easily cause you to
lose control, so consider operating your power tools a solo venture. You'll
catch up with everyone later, when you've made progress with your project.
