SAFETY INFORMATION KNOW THE TOOL To operate this tool, carefully read this manual and all labels affixed to the impact wrench before using. Keep this manual available for future reference. IMPORTANT This tool should only be serviced by a qualified service technician. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY GENERAL SAFETY RULES FOR ALL POWER TOOLS WARNING: Some dust created by using power tools contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
SAFETY INFORMATION ELECTRICAL SAFETY Double-insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for a three-wire, grounded power cord and grounded power-supply system.
