(1) Do not touch the terminals with any
conductive material.
(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a container
with other metal objects such as nails, coins,
etc.
(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water or
rain. A battery short can cause a large
current flow, overheating, possible burns
and even a breakdown.
6. Do not store the tool and battery cartridge in
locations where the temperature may reach or
exceed 50°C (122°F).
7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if it is
severely damaged or is completely worn out. The
battery cartridge can explode in a fire.
8. Be careful not to drop or strike battery.
9. Do not use dropped or struck battery.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
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.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge
(Fig. 1)
• Always switch off the tool before installation or removal
of the battery cartridge.
• To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from the
tool while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
• To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip
it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in
place with a little click. If you can see the red part on
the upper side of the button, it is not locked completely.
Insert it fully until the red part cannot be seen. If not, it
may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to
you or someone around you.
• Do not use force when inserting the battery cartridge. If
the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being
inserted correctly.
Switch action (Fig. 2)
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.
• Change the direction of rotation only when the tool
comes to a complete stop. Changing it before the tool
stops may damage the tool.
The switch is reversible, providing either clockwise or
counterclockwise rotation. To start the tool, simply pull the
lower part (A) of the switch trigger for clockwise or the
upper part (B) for counterclockwise. Release the switch
trigger to stop.
Lighting up the front lamp (Fig. 3)
CAUTION:
• Do not look in the light or see the source of light
directly.
Push the upper position of the lamp switch for turning on
the light and the lower position for off.
NOTE:
• Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of lamp. Be
careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or it may lower
the illumination.
• The light is provided with anti excessive discharge
circuit. When the lamp does not light up even after the
light switch is turned on, there is likely to be battery
power drop. Try to charge the battery cartridge.
• Keep the lamp switch in “off” position while not in need
of the light.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any
work on the tool.
Selecting correct socket
Always use the correct size socket for bolts and nuts. An
incorrect size socket will result in inaccurate and
inconsistent fastening torque and/or damage to the bolt or
nut.
Installing or removing socket (Fig. 4)
1. For socket without O-ring and pin
To install the socket, push it onto the anvil of the tool
until it locks into place.
To remove the socket, simply pull it off.
2. For socket with O-ring and pin (Fig. 5)
Move the O-ring out of the groove in the socket and
remove the pin from the socket. Fit the socket onto the
anvil of the tool so that the hole in the socket is aligned
with the hole in the anvil. Insert the pin through the
hole in the socket and anvil.
Then return the O-ring to the original position in the
socket groove to retain the pin. To remove the socket,
follow the installation procedures in reverse.
Align the hole in the side of the socket with the detent pin
on the anvil and push it onto the anvil of the tool until it
locks into place. Tap it lightly if required.
To remove the socket, simply pull it off.
Hook
CAUTION:
After installing the hook, make sure that it is screwed
firmly. (Fig. 6)
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
