Bit-locking Function, How to Use the Belt Hook

CAUTION:

●●Check the speed selector switch before use.

●●Use at low speed when high torque is needed during operation. (Using at high speed when high torque is required may cause a motor breakdown.)

●●Do not operate the speed selector switch (LOW-HIGH) while pulling on the speed control trigger. This can cause the rechargeable battery to wear quickly or damage the internal

mechanism of the motor.

*See specifications for “MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED CAPACITIES”.

CAUTION:

●●To prevent excessive temperature increase of the tool surface, do not operate the tool continuously using two or more battery packs. The tool needs cool-off time before switching to another pack.

●●Do not close up vent holes on the sides of the body during operation. Otherwise, the machine function is adversely affected to cause a failure.

●●Do NOT strain the tool (motor). This may cause damage to the unit.

●●Use the tool in such a way as to prevent the air from the body vent holes from blowing directly onto your skin. Otherwise, you may get burned.

Bit-locking Function

1.With the trigger switch not engaged and a screwdriver bit locked in place, the tool can be used as a manual screwdriver (up to 22.6 N·m, 230 kgf-cm, 199 in-lbs).

There will be a little play in the chuck, but this is not a malfunction.

2.This feature is handy for tightening screws that require more torque than the maximum torque of the driver (position on the clutch), for confirming the tightness of a screw or to loosen an extremely tight screw.

How to Use the Belt Hook

WARNING!

●●Be sure to attach the belt hook securelyto the main unit with the screw firmly fastened. When the belt hook is not firmly attached to the main unit, the hook may disconnect and the main unit may fall.

This may result in an accident or injury.

●●Periodically check screw for tightness. If found to be loose, tighten firmly.

●●Be sure to attach the belt hook firmly and securely onto a waist belt or other belt. Pay attention that the unit does not slip off the belt. This may result in an accident or injury.

●●When the main unit is held by the belt hook, avoid jumping or running with it. Doing so may cause the hook to slip and the main unit may fall.

This may result in an accident or injury.

●●When the belt hook is not used, be sure to return it to the storing position. The belt hook may catch on something.

This may result in an accident or injury.

●●When the unit is hooked onto the waist belt by the belt hook, do not attach driver bits to the unit. A sharp edge object, such as a drill bit, may cause injury or an accident.
