CAUTION:
If the guide sleeve does not return to its original
position, then the bit is not installed properly.
HOW TO USE
1. Check the rotational direction
The bit rotates clockwise (viewed from the rear side)
by pushing the R-side of the push button.
The L-side of the push button is pushed to turn the bit
counterclockwise. (See Fig. 6) (The
are provided on the body.)
CAUTION:
The push button cannot be switched while the impact
driver is turning. To switch the push button, stop the
impact driver, then set the push button.
2. Switch operation
When the trigger switch is depressed, the tool rotates.
When the trigger is released, the tool stops.
The rotational speed can be controlled by varying the
amount that the trigger switch is pulled. Speed is low
when the trigger switch is pulled slightly and increases
as the trigger switch is pulled more.
3. Change rotation speed
As shown in Fig. 7, when the rotation switch-over
lever is slid to the lower side, the power mode (P) is
set. And when slid to upper side, the save mode (S) is
set.
Please use the save mode (S) when you want to lower
Maximum tightening torque.
CAUTION
In the work of the save mode (S), avoid the continuous
screw-tightening as temperature of electronic
components of the converter switch increases.
4. Tightening and loosening screws
Install the bit that matches the screw, line up the bit
in the grooves of the head of the screw, then tighten
it.
Push the impact driver just enough to keep the bit
fitting the head of the screw.
CAUTION:
Applying the impact driver for too long tightens the
screw too much and can break it.
Tightening a screw with the impact driver at an angle
to that screw can damage the head of the screw and
the proper force will not be transmitted to the screw.
Tighten with this impact driver lined up straight with
the screw.
5. Number of screws tightenings possible
Please refer to the table below for the number of
screw tightened possible with one charge.
Screw used
Wood screw ø4 × 50
Approx. 900 Approx.450 Approx. 1400
(Soft wood)
Machine screw
Approx. 1990 Approx. 995 Approx. 3150
M8 × 16
These values may vary slightly, according to
surrounding temperature and battery characteristics.
6. Using the hook
The hook is used to hang up the power tool to your
waist belt while working.

CAUTION:
When using the hook, hang up the power tool firmly
not to drop accidentally.
If the power tool is dropped, it may lead to an accident.
When carrying the power tool with hooked to your
waist belt, do not fit any bit to the tip of power tool. If
the sharp bit such as drill is fitted to the power tool
when carrying it with hooked to your waist belt, you
will be injured.
Install securely the hook. Unless the hook is securely
installed, it may cause an injury while using.
marks
(1) Removing the hook.
Remove the screws fixing the hook with Philips screw
driver. (Fig. 8)
(2) Replacing the hook and tightening the screws.
Install securely the hook in the groove of power tool
and tighten the screws to fix the hook firmly. (Fig. 9)
7. About Remaining Battery Indicator
When pressing the remaining battery indicator switch,
the remaining battery indicator lamp lights and the
battery remaining power can be checked. (Fig. 10)
When releasing your finger from the remaining
battery indicator switch, the remaining battery
indicator lamp goes off. The Table 4 shows the state
of remaining battery indicator lamp and the battery
remaining power.
State of lamp
As the remaining battery indicator shows somewhat
differently depending on ambient temperature and
battery characteristics, read it as a reference.
NOTE:
Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or
break it.It may lead to a trouble.
To save the battery power consumption, the
remaining battery indicator lamp lights while pressing
the remaining battery indicator switch.
8. How to use the LED light
Every time you press the light switch on the switch
panel, the LED light lights or goes off. (Fig. 11)
To prevent the battery power consumption, turn off
the LED light frequently.
CAUTION:
Do not expose directly your eye to the light by looking
into the light.
If your eye is continuously exposed to the light, your
eye will be hurt.
