INSTALLING/REMOVING BITS
See Figure 4, page 9.
The Auto-Load chuck provides fast, easy one-handed bit
loading and ejecting.
The coupler has been designed to accept 1/4 in. hex bits.
To install:
 Lock the switch trigger and remove the battery pack.
 Push the bit into the coupler until it clicks into place.
 Pull on the bit to make sure it is secured in the coupler.
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 coupler 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 and remove the battery pack.
 With the nose of the tool pointed away from you, pull the
coupler away from the driver.
 The bit will eject from the coupler.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other part could create a hazard or cause
product damage.

SPEED/TORQUE SELECTOR
See Figure 5, page 9.
The speed and torque of the impact driver can be changed
for various applications.
 LOW (1) Speed/Torque
 MEDIUM (2) Speed/Torque
 HIGH (3) Speed/Torque
NOTICE:
Never change speeds while the tool is running. Failure
to obey this caution could result in serious damage to
the tool.
DRIVING OR REMOVING SCREWS
See Figures 6 - 7, page 9.
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
prevent 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 Tri-Beam LED will illuminate as the trigger is
depressed.
 As the screw is driven, impacting will begin.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and can be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
