the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

4)Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

5)Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

6)Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

7)Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Battery Tool Use and Care

1)Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting battery pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

2)Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer.

A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

3)Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs.

Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

4)When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns, or a fire.

5)Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

Service

1)Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of power tool is maintained.

II. INTENDED USE

This tool is a Cordless Impact Driver/Wrench and can be used to tighten bolts, nuts, and screws. Additionally, it provides a torque con- trol function that automatically stops tool oper- ation when a preset load is reached to deliver consistent tightening torque.

Read “the Safety Instructions” booklet and the following before using.

III.ADDITIONAL SAFETY

RULES

1)Wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods.

2)Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition, since it does not have to be plugged into an electrical outlet.

3)Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hid­ den wiring or its own cord.

Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

4)Do NOT operate the Forward/Reverse lever when the main switch is on. The bat- tery will discharge rapidly and damage to the unit may occur.

5)During charging, the charger may become slightly warm. This is normal.

Do NOT charge the battery for a long period.

6)When storing or carrying the tool, set the Forward/Reverse lever to the center posi- tion (switch lock).

7)Do not strain the tool by holding the speed control trigger halfway (speed control mode) so that the motor stops.
