Introduction

You have chosen a DeWALT tool. Years of experience, thorough product development and innovation make DeWALT one of the most reliable partners for professional power tool users. Technical Data

Technical Data

Noise values and/or vibration values (triax vector sum) according to EN62841-2-2:

The vibration and/or noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.

The declared vibration and/or noise emission level represents impact tightening of fasteners of the maximum capacity of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and/or noise emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and/or noise should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm (relevant for vibration), organisation of work patterns.

Residual Risks

In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided. These are:

• Impairment of hearing.
• Risk of personal injury due to flying particles.
• Risk of burns due to accessories becoming hot during operation.
• Risk of personal injury due to prolonged use.

USAGE

Your impact tool generates the following maximum torque:

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:

• Voltage: Low voltage, due to a nearly discharged battery, will reduce fastening torque.
• Accessory size: Failure to use the correct accessory size will cause a reduction in fastening torque.
• Bolt Size: Larger bolt diameters generally require higher fastening torque. Fastening torque will also vary according to length, grade, and torque coefficient.
• Bolt: Ensure that all threads are free of rust and other debris to allow proper fastening torque.
• Material: The type of material and surface finish of the material will affect fastening torque.
• Fastening time: Longer fasten ing time results in increased fastening torque. Using a longer fastening time than recommended could cause the fasteners to be overstressed, stripped or damaged.

MAINTENANCE

Your DeWALT power tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect battery pack before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury. The charger and battery pack are not serviceable.
