Tool Set Up

TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:

Release the Trigger and remove the Battery Pack before adjusting tool or installing accessories.

SETUP

WARNING! Do not install the Battery Pack until AFTER you complete the following steps to set up the tool for use.

WARNING! Only use 1/4" Hex Shank bits designed for impact use. Verify bit fits the screw/hex bolt precisely before use.

1.An additional bit may be stored in the Driver’s Bit Groove during use.

2.To lock the trigger mechanism as a safety measure, slide the Direction Switch so that it is in the center position. This will prevent the driver turning on accidentally.

3.Pull Collar (11-1) forward, insert bit into Anvil and then release Collar. Pull on bit to ensure it is secure.

4.Insert the fully charged Battery Pack into the base of the Impact Driver, making sure that it clicks into place securely. Be sure the Battery Pack is securely seated into the Handle so it does not fall off during use.

NOTICE: Do not change direction of rotation while Anvil is rotating. Wait until Anvil has come to a complete stop before changing direction.
