of such accessories with this tool could be hazardous.
To reduce the risk of injury, only
D
e
WALT
recommended
accessories should be used with this product.

Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk
of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye
protection when performing this procedure.
WARNING:
Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non‑metallic parts of the

Your
D
e
WALT
power tool has been designed to operate
over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool
care and regular cleaning.
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
3
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.
‑
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 recommended could cause the fasteners
to be overstressed, stripped or damaged.
Recommended accessories for use with your tool are available
