position and the bit will not be secured. In this
case, try re-inserting the bit according to the
instructions above.

OPERATION

► Fig.15
CAUTION:
• Always insert the battery cartridge all the way
until it locks in place with a little click. If you can
see the red indicator on the upper side of the
button, it is not locked completely. Install it fully
until the red indicator cannot be seen. If not,
it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing
injury to you or someone around you.
• If the tool is operated continuously until the
battery cartridge has discharged, allow the tool
to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding with a
fresh battery.
Impact driver mode
CAUTION:
• When changing the action mode to the
impact driver mode, always check that the
tool impacts by tightening wood screws. If
the action mode is not changed completely, the
tool twists the operator's hand resulting injury.
Screwdriving
Hold the tool firmly and place the point of the driver bit
in the screw head. Apply forward pressure to the tool to
the extent that the bit will not slip off the screw and turn
the tool on to start operation.
