battery pack in an air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C),
or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will
prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch
u
while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not
indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery
pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack
in a warm environment such as in a metal shed, or an
uninsulated trailer.
If the battery pack does not charge properly:
u
Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or
u
other appliance.
Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch
u
which turns power off when you turn out the lights.
Move charger and battery pack to a location where the
u
surrounding air temperature is approximately 65°F
‑ 75°F (18°‑ 24°C). d. If charging problems persist,
take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local
Stanley Fat Max service center.
The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to
u
produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily
done previously.
DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Fol‑

You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you
u
desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.

button, be sure the trigger is released.
Adjusting torque control ‑ figure D
This tool is fitted with a torque adjustment collar (3) to select
the operating mode and to set the torque for tightening
screws. Large screws and hard workpiece materials require
a higher torque setting than small screws and soft work‑
piece materials.
For drilling in wood, metal and plastics, set the collar to
u
the drilling position symbol.
For screwdriving, set the collar to the desired setting.
u
If you do not yet know the appropriate setting, proceed
as follows:
Set the collar to the lowest torque setting.
u
Tighten the first screw.
u
If the clutch ratchets before the desired result is
u
achieved, increase the collar setting and continue
tightening the screw.
Repeat until you reach the correct setting.
u
Use this setting for the remaining screws.
