PBLID01 IMPACT DRIVER
INSTALLING / REMOVING BITS
See Figure 4, page 12 (PBLID01).
The Auto-Load collet provides fast, easy one-handed bit
loading and ejecting.
The collet has been designed to accept 1/4 in. hex bits.
To install:
 Lock the switch trigger.
 Remove the battery pack.
 Push the bit into the collet until it clicks into place.
 Pull on the bit to make sure it is secured in the collet. There
may be some play in the installed bit; this is normal.
NOTE: Use only impact quality bits with a locking groove.
WARNING:
Make sure the bit is secured in the collet before using
the impact driver. Failure to do so could cause serious
personal injury.
CAUTION:
The metal surface may become hot during use. Avoid
contact with it to avoid possible burn injury.
To remove:
 Lock the switch trigger.
 Remove the battery pack.
 With the nose of the tool pointed away from you, pull the
collet away from the driver.
 The bit will eject from the collet.
OPERATION
LED LIGHT
See Figure 5, page 12 (PBLID01).
The LED light located on the front of the tool base illuminates
when the switch trigger is depressed.
If the tool is not in use, the time-out feature will cause the
lights to start fading and then shut off.
The LED light illuminates only when there is a charged battery
pack in the tool.
DRIVING OR REMOVING SCREWS
See Figures 6 - 7, page 12 (PBLID01).
WARNING:
Do not drive a screw where there is likely to be hidden
wiring behind the surface. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock
the operator. If you must drive a screw where hidden wire
could be present, always hold tool by insulated gripping
surfaces (handle) when performing the operation to pre-
vent a shock to the operator.
NOTICE:
The impact driver is not designed to be used as a drill.
 Place the direction of rotation selector in the correct
position for operation.
 Hold the impact driver with one hand.
 Place the bit on the screw head and slowly depress the
switch trigger. Start the bit slowly for more control.
NOTE: The LED worklight will illuminate as the trigger is
depressed.
 As the screw is driven, impacting will begin.
