OPERATION
DIRECTION OF ROTATION SELECTOR
See Figure 6.
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled by
a selector located above the switch trigger. With the impact
driver held in normal operating position, the direction of rota-
tion selector should be positioned to the left of the switch
trigger for driving. The driving direction is reversed when the
selector is to the right of the switch trigger.
Setting the switch trigger in the
OFF
(center lock) position
helps reduce the possibility of accidental starting when not
in use.
CAUTION:
To prevent gear damage, always allow the
coupler to come to a complete stop before changing
the direction of rotation.
To stop the impact driver, release the switch trigger and allow
the coupler to come to a complete stop.
NOTE:
The impact driver will not run unless the direction of
rotation selector is pushed fully to the left or right.
