Important Safety Instruction for Battery Packs
WARNING: For safe operation, read this manual and manuals originally supplied with tool
before using the charger.
When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to include catalog number and voltage.
Consult the chart on the last page of this manual for compatibility of chargers and battery
packs.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using the battery pack and
charger, read the safety instructions below. Then follow charging procedures outlined.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely
worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created
when lithium ion battery packs are burned.
• Do not charge or use battery in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery from the charger may
ignite the dust or fumes.
• If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with mild
soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 min-
utes or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is com-
posed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If
symptoms persists, seek medical attention
WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.
• Charge the battery packs only in D
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may
reach or exceed 105°F (40˚) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
WARNING: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If battery pack case is
cracked or damaged, do not insert into charger. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack.
Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over
or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged
battery packs should be returned to service center for recycling.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that metal objects can con-
tact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool
boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc. Transporting bat-
teries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact
with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US
Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit trans-
porting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e., packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage)
UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual bat-
teries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that
could contact them and cause a short circuit.

Charger Diagnostics
This charger is designed to detect certain problems that can arise with the battery packs or the
charger. Problems are indicated by the three red lights flashing together in different patterns.
PROBLEM POWERLINE
When the charger is used with some portable power sources such as generators or sources
that convert DC to AC, the charger may temporarily suspend operation. The three red lights
will flash together with two fast blinks followed by a pause. This indicates that the power
souce is out of limits.
BAD BATTERY
The charger can detect a weak or damaged battery. The three red lights will flash together with
rapid blinking. The battery will no longer charge and should be returned to a service center
or a collection site for recycling.
BAD CHARGER
The charger will detect if it is not functioning properly. The three red lights will flash together
with one fast blink followed by a long blink. The charger will no longer work and should be
returned to an authorized service center or replaced.
LEAVING THE BATTERY IN THE CHARGER
The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the red lights glowing indefinitely. The
charger will keep the battery pack fresh and fully charged. This charger features an automat-
ic tune-up mode which equals or balances the individual cells in the battery pack to allow it to
function at peak capacity. Battery packs should be tuned up weekly or whenever the battery
no longer delivers the same amount of work. To use the automatic tune-up mode, place the
battery pack in the charger and leave it for at least 8 hours.
Important Charging Notes
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the
air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack
in an air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important
and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a nor-
mal condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack
after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a
metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you
turn out the lights.
c. Move charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is
approximately 65°F - 75°F (18°- 24°C).
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local
service center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions.
Follow the charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you
desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.
5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum
foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always
unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity.
Unplug charger before attempting to clean.

Motor
Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and overheating. All D
tools are factory tested; if this tool does not operate, check your battery pack.
OPERATION
Installing and Removing the Battery Pack (Fig. 1, 2)
NOTE: Make sure your battery pack is fully charged.
To install the battery pack into the tool handle, align the base of the tool with the rails inside
the tool's handle and slide the battery pack firmly into the handle until you hear the lock snap
into place.
To remove the battery pack from the tool, press the release button (A) and firmly pull the
battery pack out of the tool handle (Fig. 1). Insert it into the charger (Fig. 2) as described in the
charger section of this manual.
Switch (Fig. 3)
Pressing the BOTTOM part of the rocker switch (B) runs the tool in forward (right-hand thread)
direction. Pressing the TOP of the switch reverses motor direction. This allows "rocking"
fasteners to break them loose.
Anvil With Detent Pin (Fig. 4)
Place the switch in the locked off (center) position or remove battery pack before changing
accessories.
To install a socket on the anvil, align the hole in the side of the socket with the detent pin
(C) on the anvil (D). Press the socket on until the detent pin engages in the hole. Depression
of detent pin may be necessary to aid installation of socket.
CAUTION: Use only impact sockets. Non-impact sockets may break and cause a hazardous
condition. Inspect sockets prior to use to ensure that it contains no cracks.
To remove a socket, depress the detent pin through the hole, using a small pointed object,
and pull the socket off.
Usage
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 socket on the fastener head. Keep the tool pointed straight at the fastener.
2. Press rocker switch to start 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.
• Socket size: Failure to use the correct socket 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 fastening time results in increased fastening torque. Using a
longer fastening time than recommended could cause the fasteners to be overstressed,
stripped or damaged.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once a week.
To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection when
performing this. Exterior plastic parts may be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
Although these parts are highly solvent resistant, NEVER use solvents.
