Worklight (Fig. A)
There is a worklight 
 7 
located on the foot of the tool. The
worklight will be activated when the trigger switch is depressed.
When the trigger is released, the worklight will stay illuminated
for up to 20 seconds. If the trigger switch remains depressed,
the worklights will remain on.
nOTE: The worklight is for lighting the immediate work surface
and are not intended to be used as a flashlight.
Mode Selector (Fig. A, C)
Your tool is equipped with a mode selector
to select low, high, or Precision Wrench™ mode.
Select the mode based on the application and control the speed
of the tool using the variable speed trigger
Precision Wrench™ (Fig. C)
In addition to low speed impacting modes, this tool features
the Precision Wrench™ mode which grants the user greater
control in both fastening and loosening applications. When set
in forward, the tool will fasten at 2000 RPM until impact begins.
The tool will then pause for 0.5 seconds before continuing
to impact at a rate of 3100 IPM, providing the user with
greater control and reducing the chance of overtightening or
damaging material.
When set in reverse, the tool will impact at a normal speed and
rate of 3100 IPM. Upon sensing that the fastener has broken
free, the tool will cease to impact and will reduce speed to help
prevent "run-off" of loose hardware.

CAUTION: Ensure fastener and/or system will withstand
the level of torque generated by the tool. Excessive torque
may cause breakage and possible personal injury.
1. Place the accessory on the fastener head. Keep the tool
pointed straight at the fastener.
2. Press switch to start operation. Release the switch to stop
operation. Always check torque with a torque wrench, as
the fastening torque is affected by many factors including
the following:
ʵ Voltage: Low voltage, due to a nearly discharged battery,
will reduce fastening torque.
ʵ Accessory size: Failure to use the correct accessory size
will cause a reduction in fastening torque.
ʵ Bolt Size: Larger bolt diameters generally require higher
fastening torque. Fastening torque will also vary according
to length, grade, and torque coefficient.
