Tips for maintaining maximum battery life

1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely discharged. Always stop tool operation and charge the battery

cartridge when you notice less tool power.

2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge. Overcharging shortens the battery service life.

3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at 10°C – 40°C (50°F – 104°F).

Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.

4. Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride battery cartridge when you do not use it for more than six months.

Installing or removing driver bit or drill bit (Fig. 3)

Important:

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the bat-

tery cartridge is removed before installing or removing

the bit.

Hold the ring and turn the sleeve counterclockwise to

open the chuck jaws. Place the bit in the chuck as far as it

will go. Hold the ring firmly and turn the sleeve clockwise

to tighten the chuck.

To remove the bit, hold the ring and turn the sleeve coun-

terclockwise.

Switch action (Fig. 4)

CAUTION:

Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool, always

check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and

returns to the “OFF” position when released.

To start the tool, simply pull the trigger. Tool speed is

increased by increasing pressure on the trigger. Release

the trigger to stop.

Reversing switch action (Fig. 5)

CAUTION:

• Always check the direction of rotation before operation.

• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a

complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation

before the tool stops may damage the tool.

• When not operating the tool, always set the reversing

switch lever to the neutral position.

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of

rotation. Depress the reversing switch lever from the A

side for clockwise rotation or from the B side for counter-

clockwise rotation. When the switch lever is in the neutral

position, the switch trigger cannot be pulled.

Speed change (Fig. 6)

To change the speed, first switch off the tool and then

slide the speed change lever to the “ II ” side for high

speed or “ I ” side for low speed. Be sure that the speed

change lever is set to the correct position before opera-

tion. Use the right speed for your job.

CAUTION:

• Always set the speed change lever fully to the correct

position. If you operate the tool with the speed change

lever positioned half-way between the “ I ” side and “ II ”

side, the tool may be damaged.

• Do not use the speed change lever while the tool is run-

ning. The tool may be damaged.

Adjusting the fastening torque (Fig. 7)

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 17 steps by turn-

ing the adjusting ring so that its graduations are aligned

with the pointer on the tool body. The fastening torque is

minimum when the number 1 is aligned with the pointer,

and maximum when the marking A is aligned with the

pointer.

The clutch will slip at various torque levels when set at

the number 1 to 16. The clutch is designed not to slip at

the A marking. Before actual operation, drive a trial

screw into your material or a piece of duplicate material

to determine which torque level is required for a particu-

lar application.

NOTE:

Do not operate the tool with the adjusting ring set

between the number 16 and the A marking. The tool may

be damaged.

Screwdriving operation (Fig. 8)

Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and

apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then

increase the speed gradually. Release the trigger as

soon as the clutch cuts in.

NOTE:

• Make sure that the driver bit is inserted straight in the

screw head, or the screw and/or bit may be damaged.

• When driving wood screws, predrill pilot holes to make

driving easier and to prevent splitting of the workpiece.

See the chart below.

• If the tool is operated continuously until the battery car-

tridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for 15 min-

utes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
