To remove:
Unscrew and remove the battery cap.
Remove the battery pack from the tool.
For complete charging instructions, see the operator's manual
for your battery pack.
LED LIGHT FUNCTIONS
See Figure 1, page 8.
When a charged battery pack is installed in the tool, the
LED light will indicate the status of the tool when the tool
is powered on.

LOCK OUT SWITCH
See Figure 2, page 9.
The lock out switch reduces the possibility of accidental start-
ing. The lock out switch is located on the handle above the
switch trigger. The lock out switch must be in the unlocked
position before you pull the switch trigger. When not in use,
slide lock out switch down to lock the switch trigger.
VARIABLE SPEED SWITCH TRIGGER
See Figure 2, page 9.
The variable speed switch trigger delivers higher speed with
increased trigger pressure and lower speed with decreased
trigger pressure.
To turn the tool ON, move the lock out switch to the un-
locked position and depress the switch trigger. To turn it
OFF, release the switch trigger and allow the tool to come
to a complete stop.
WARNING:
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Lock the
switch when not in use or carrying at your side, when
installing or removing the battery pack, and when install-
ing or removing sockets.
LED WORKLIGHT
See Figure 2, page 9.
The LED worklight near the collar illuminates when the switch
trigger is depressed. If the tool is not in use, the time-out
feature will cause the light to start fading and then shut off.
The LED worklight illuminates only when there is a charged
battery pack in the tool.

INSTALLING AND REMOVING SOCKETS
See Figure 3, page 9.
Always select the correct size socket for nuts and bolts.
Using the wrong size socket may damage the nut or bolt and
cause the fastening torque to be inaccurate or inconsistent.
Lock the switch trigger and remove the battery pack.
Push the socket (not included) onto the anvil until the
detent pin locks it into place.
To remove the socket (not included), pull it away from
the anvil.
OPERATING THE RATCHET
See Figure 4, page 9.
WARNING:
The ratchet head may become hot during periods of
extended use or when the tool is under stress. Allow
the ratchet head to cool completely before touching the
ratchet head. Touching a hot ratchet head could result
in burns or other injuries.
WARNING:
Do not drive a bolt 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 bolt where hidden wire
could be present, always hold tool by insulated gripping
surfaces (handle) when performing the operation to pre-
vent a shock to the operator.
NOTICE:
The ratchet is not designed to be used as a drill.
Proper fastening torque is determined by the kind of bolt,
the size of the bolt, or the material of the workpiece. The
tool can be used manually to gain extra torque on the nut
or bolt being tightened. However, this tool is designed only
to speed the installation and removal process and is not
intended to replace a torque wrench or breaker bar. For
applications where proper torque is important, always use
a torque wrench to verify that proper torque is achieved.
NOTE: Do not use this tool to install lug nuts on wheels.
