SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence
to impact wrench safety rules. If you use this tool
unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious
personal injury.
1. Hold power
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the fastener may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord. Fastening contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
2. Wear ear protectors.
3. Check the socket carefully for wear, cracks or
damage before installation.
4. Hold the tool firmly.
5. Always be sure you have a firm footing.
Be sure no one is below when using the tool in
high locations.
6. The proper fastening torque may differ
depending upon the kind or size of the bolt.
Check the torque with a torque wrench.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING:
MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in
this instruction manual may cause serious personal
injury.
