accessories may break and cause a hazardous condition.
Inspect accessory prior to use to ensure that it con tains no
cracks.
CAUTION: Inspect anvils and hog rings prior to use. Missing
or damaged items should be replaced before use.
Place the forward/reverse button (B) in the locked off (centre)
position or remove battery pack before changing accessories.
To install an accessory on the hog ring anvil, firmly push accessory onto the
anvil (J). The hog ring (K) compresses to allow the accessory to slide on. After
the accessory is installed, the hog ring applies pressure to help provide accessory
retention.
To remove a accessory, grasp the accessory and firmly pull it off.
Usage
Your impact tool generates the following output torque:
Cat # Ft.-Lbs. In.-Lbs. Nm
DCF813-XE 96 1150 130
DCF815-XE 79 950 107
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 switch to start 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.
• Accessory size: Failure to use the correct accessory size will cause a reduction
in fastening torque.
• Bolt Size: Larger bolt diameters generally require higher fastening torque.
Fastening torque will also vary according to length, grade, and torque
coefficient.
• Bolt: Ensure that all threads are free of rust and other debris to allow proper
fastening torque.
• Material: The type of material and surface finish of the material will affect
fastening torque.
• Fastening Time: Longer fasten ing time results in increased fastening torque.
Using a longer fastening time than recom mended could cause the fasteners to
be overstressed, stripped or damaged.
