CONNECTING TOOL ATTACHMENT TO THE POWER HANDLE

Be sure to follow the following safety precautions when attaching and detaching tools from the power handle.

Remove the battery from the handle before attaching or detaching tools. Never touch the control switches on the power handle when attaching and detaching tools

To attach a tool:

1.Twist the lock ring on the power handle to the unlocked position. (see figure 1)

Figure 1

2.Insert the male end of the power handle interface into the female socket

in the end of the tool attachment

making sure that it is firmly seated. (see figure 2) The interface is keyed so that it will only go together one way. The handle and tool should go together easily. If you experience resistance in putting them together, check that the keys on the handle are

properly aligned with the slots in the tool.
