BatterY prOtectiOn FeatUreS
Craftsman 19.2 V lithium-ion batteries are designed with
features that protect the lithium-ion cells and maximize
battery life. Under some operating conditions, these built-
in features may cause the battery and the tool it is power-
ing to act differently from nickel-cadmium batteries.
During some applications, the battery electronics may
signal the battery to shut down, and cause the tool to stop
running. To reset the battery and tool, release the trigger
and resume normal operation.
nOte: To prevent further shut down of the battery, avoid
forcing the tool.
If releasing the trigger does not reset the battery and
tool, the battery pack is depleted. If depleted, the battery
pack will begin charging when placed on the lithium-ion
charger.
caUtiOn:
To reduce the risk of injury, charge
only Craftsman lithium-ion batteries and Craftsman
nickel-cadmium batteries on the chargers listed in
the General Safety Rules. Other types of batteries
may burst, causing personal injury or damage.

Switch triGGer
See Figure 3, page i.
To turn the product On, depress the switch trigger. To
turn it OFF, release the switch trigger.
The switch trigger can be locked in the OFF position. This
feature can be used to prevent the possibility of acciden-
tal starting when not in use. To lock switch trigger, place
the direction of rotation selector in center position.
VariaBLe SpeeD
The variable speed switch trigger delivers higher speed
with increased trigger pressure and lower speed with
decreased trigger pressure.
DirectiOn OF rOtatiOn SeLectOr
(FOrwarD/reVerSe/center LOcK)
See Figure 3, page i.
The direction of shank rotation is reversible and is con-
trolled by a selector located above the switch trigger.
With the impact wrench held in normal operating position,
the direction of rotation selector should be positioned to
the left of the switch trigger for forward impacting. The
impacting direction is reversed when the selector is to the
right of the switch trigger.
Setting the switch trigger in the OFF (center lock) position
helps reduce the possibility of accidental starting when
not in use.
