16) Do not charge battery pack when the
temperature is BELOW 0°C (32°F) or
ABOVE 40°C (104°F). This is very impor-
tant in order to maintain optimal condition
of the battery pack.
17) Do not incinerate the battery pack. It
can explode in a fire.
18) Avoid dangerous environment. Do not
use charger in damp or wet locations.
19) The charger is designed to operate on
standard household electrical power
only. Do not attempt to use it on any
other voltage!
20) Do not abuse cord. Never carry charger
by cord or yank it to disconnect from
outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil
and sharp edges.
21) Charge the battery pack in a well ven-
tilated place, do not cover the charger
and battery pack with a cloth, etc., while
charging.
22) Use of an attachment not recommend-
ed may result in a risk of fire, electric
shock, or personal injury.
23) Do not short the battery pack. A battery
short can cause a large current flow,
over heating and create the risk of fire
or personal injury.
24) NOTE: If the supply cord of this ap-
pliance is damaged, it must only be re-
placed by a repair shop authorized by
the manufacturer, because special pur-
pose tools are required.
25) TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK, THIS APPLIANCE HAS A
POLARIZED PLUG (ONE BLADE IS
WIDER THAN THE OTHER).
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not change the plug in any way.

YOUR NEW PANASONIC
CORDLESS POWER TOOL!
PANASONIC'S CHARGING
SYSTEM UTILIZES A QUALITY HIGH
TEMPERATURE NICKEL CADMIUM
BATTERY PACK IN CONJUNCTION
WITH OUR SELF-DIAGNOSTIC
UNIVERSAL INVERTER CHARGER.
THIS HIGH TEMPERATURE NICKEL
CADMIUM BATTERY PACK
REQUIRES A "BREAK-IN PERIOD"
TO REACH MAXIMUM OPERATING
CAPACITY. THE
"BREAK-IN PERIOD" IS
ACCOMPLISHED DURING NORMAL
USAGE DURING THE FIRST 6-8
CHARGE AND DISCHARGE
CYCLES OF THE BATTERY PACK.
AFTER THE "BREAK-IN PERIOD" IS
COMPLETED, THE BATTERY

ASSEMBLY &
OPERATION
A Hexagonal driving shaft
NOTE: When attaching or removing
bit, be sure to set the main
switch lock at the lock position.
Select the suitable bit and lightly
push it into the hexagonal driving
shaft of the main unit.
Hexagonal driving shaft
Lock
6.35mm(1/4")
11.5mm (7/16")
B Clutch handle
When using the tool for driving screws
into soft material or for terminal screws,
etc., there is the possibility of damaging
the material or threads if the torque is
too high. To compensate for this, the
clutch torque may be adjusted by turning
the clutch handle to the required setting.
Clutch position 1 is the minimum and the
clutch torque increases with positions 2,
3, 4, and 5. When the device is set at
position 6, the clutch will not slip and the
connection to the motor will be direct.
CAUTION: If the battery pack loses its
power during usage, the clutch may not
slip even at positions 4 or 5, if this
occurs, recharge the battery pack.
Lock
Bit locking function
With the switch at off, the bit is locked in
place, and the tool can be used as a
manual screw-driver.
There will be a little play in the driving
shaft, but this is not a malfunction.
CAUTION: Exact torque should be verified
with a torque wrench for precise limits as
the screw can be damaged.
Lock
C Main switch (ON/OFF)
Push the upper half of the switch for
forward (
