OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. To Attach Battery Pack
a. Align the raised portion on the battery pack
with the grooves on the bottom of the tool,
then slide the battery pack onto the tool, as
shown.
b. Make sure that the latches on the battery
pack snap into place and the battery pack is
secured to the tool before beginning operation.
NOTICE: When placing the battery pack on the
tool, be sure that the raised rib on the battery pack
aligns with the groove on the tool and the latches
snap into place properly. Improper assembly of
the battery pack can cause damage to internal
components.
To Detach Battery Pack
a. Press the battery-release buttons to release the battery pack.
b. Pull backward on the battery pack to remove it from the tool.
WARNING
• Battery tools are always in operating condition. Therefore, always remove the battery pack
when the tool is not in use or when carrying the impact wrench at your side.
2. Direction-of-Rotation Selector (Forward/
Center Lock/Reverse)
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is
controlled by the direction-of-rotation selector
(B) located near the variable-speed trigger switch
(C). With the impact wrench held in the normal
operating position, pointing away from you:
a. Position the direction-of-rotation selector (B) to
the left of the tool for forward rotation.
b. Position the direction-of-rotation selector to the
right of the tool for reverse rotation.
c. Setting the selector in the center (lock) position
helps reduce the possibility of accidental
starting when not in use.
NOTICE: To prevent gear damage, always allow the impact wrench to come to a complete
stop before changing the direction of rotation.
NOTICE: The impact wrench will not run unless the direction-of-rotation selector is engaged
fully to the left or right.
