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
1
to start operation.
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.
Worklight (Fig.A)
The worklight
7
is activated when the trigger switch is
depressed, and will automatically turn off 20seconds after
the trigger switch is released. If the trigger switch remains
depressed, the worklight will remainon.
NOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work
surface and is not intended to be used as aflashlight.
Variable Speed Trigger and Forward/
Reverse Control Button (Fig.A)
The tool is turned on and off by pulling and releasing the
variable speed trigger
1
. The farther the trigger is depressed,
the higher the speed of the tool. Your tool is equipped with
a brake. The chuck will stop as soon as the trigger switch is
fullyreleased.
A forward/reverse control button
2
determines the
rotational direction of the tool and also serves as a
lock-offbutton.
• To select forward rotation (clockwise), release the trigger
and depress the forward/reverse control button on the
right side of thetool.
• To select reverse (counterclockwise), depress the
forward/reverse control button on the left side of
thetool.
NOTE: The center 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: Continuous use in variable speed range is not
recommended. It may damage the switch and should
beavoided.
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.
