Instructions for Use
WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions and
applicable regulations.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
Proper Hand Position (Fig. E)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
ALWAYS use proper hand position as shown.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
ALWAYS hold securely in anticipation of a sudden reaction.
Proper hand position requires one hand on the main
handle

Variable Speed Trigger Switch (Fig. A)
To turn the tool on, squeeze the trigger switch
tool off, release the trigger switch. Your tool is equipped with
a brake. The anvil will stop when the trigger switch is fully
released. The variable speed switch enables you to select the
best speed for a particular application. The more you squeeze
the trigger, the faster the tool will operate. For maximum tool
life, use variable speed only for starting holes or fasteners.
nOTE: Continuous use in variable speed range is not
recommended. It may damage the switch and should be avoided.
Forward/Reverse Control Button (Fig. A)
A forward/reverse control button
the tool and also serves as a lock‑off button.
To select forward rotation, release the trigger switch and
depress the forward/reverse control button on the right side of
the tool.
To select reverse, release the trigger switch and depress the
forward/reverse control button on the left side of the tool.
The centre position of the control button locks the tool in the off
position. When changing the position of the control button, be
sure the trigger is released.
nOTE: The first time the tool is run after changing the direction
of rotation, you may hear a click on start up. This is normal and
does not indicate a problem.
Worklight (Fig. A, C)
CAUTION: Do not stare into worklight. Serious eye
injury could result.
The worklight
comes with multiple settings.

Pressing the worklight button
through low illumination for 20 seconds, high illumination for
20 seconds, high illumination for 20 minutes, and off.
When the worklight icon is lit, the high illumination 20 minute
LED mode is enabled.
nOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface
and is not intended to be used as a flashlight.

Usage (Fig. A)
CAUTION: Ensure fastener and/or system will withstand
the level of torque generated by the tool. Excessive torque
may cause breakage and possible personal injury.
1. Place the accessory on the fastener head. Keep the tool
pointed straight at the fastener.
2. Press variable speed trigger switch
Release variable speed trigger switch to stop operation.
Always check torque with a torque wrench, as the fastening
torque is affected by many factors including the following:
-
Voltage: Low voltage, due to a nearly discharged
battery, will reduce fastening torque.
-
accessory size: Failure to use the correct accessory size
will cause a reduction in fastening torque.
Bolt size: Larger bolt diameters generally require
-
higher fastening torque. Fastening torque will also vary
according to length, grade, and torque coefficient.
-
Bolt: Ensure that all threads are free of rust and other
debris to allow proper fastening torque.
-
Material: The type of material and surface finish of the
material will affect fastening torque.
Fastening time: Longer fasten ing time results in
-
increased fastening torque. Using a longer fastening
time than recommended could cause the fasteners to
be overstressed, stripped or damaged.
MAINTENANCE
Your power tool has been designed to operate over a long
period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous
satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and
regular cleaning.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
The charger and battery pack are not serviceable.
