NOTE:
• Use the proper bit for the head of the screw/bolt that
you wish to use.
• When fastening tool screws in a steel plate, the proper
fastening torque can be obtained in an extremely short
time (approx. 0.1 – 0.2 seconds). Turn the tool off as
soon as the impact sound is heard.
• Hold the tool pointed straight at the screw 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.
The pilot holes should be slightly smaller than the wood
screws in diameter.
• The size of wood screw which can be fastened with this
tool may differ depending upon the type of material to
be fastened. Always perform a test operation to deter-
mine the size of wood screw.
• When fastening bolts or nuts, always perform a test
operation to verify the adequate fastening time for your
bolt or nut. Excessive fastening torque may damage
the bolt/nut or socket bit.
