FORWARD/REVERSING LEVER & TRIGGER LOCK
WARNING:
After tool use, lock trigger in “OFF” position to help prevent accidental starts
and accidental discharge.
Your tool is equipped with a forward/ reversing lever and trigger lock located above the trigger (fig. 1).
This lever was designed for changing rotation of the bit, and for locking the trigger in an “OFF” position.
For forward rotation, (with chuck pointed away from you) move the lever to the far left.
For reverse rotation move the lever to the far right.
To activate trigger lock move lever to the center off position.
CAUTION:
Do not change direction of rotation until the tool comes to a complete stop.
Shifting during rotation of the chuck can cause damage to the tool.
WORKLIGHT
CAUTION:
Do not look in the light or see the source of light directly.
There is a worklight above the trigger switch (See Fig.1). The worklight is activated when the trigger
switch is depressed, and will automatically turn off 10 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.
OPERATING TIPS
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.
The longer a bolt, screw, or nut is impacted, the tighter it will become. To help prevent damaging the
fasteners or workpieces, avoid excessive impacting. Be particularly careful when impacting smaller
fasteners because they require less impacting to reach optimum torque.Practice with various fasteners,
noting the length of time required to reach the desired torque. Check the tightness with a hand-torque
wrench. If the fasteners are too tight, reduce the impacting time. If they are not tight enough, increase the
impacting time.
Oil, dirt, rust or other matter on the threads or under the head of the fastener affects the degree of
tightness.The torque required to loosen a fastener averages 75% to 80% of the tightening torque,
depending on the condition of the contacting surfaces.On light gasket jobs, run each fastener down to a
relatively light torque and use a hand torque wrench for final tightening.
