WARNING:
Do not drive a screw where there is likely to be hidden
wiring behind the surface. Contact with a "live" wire will
make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock
the operator. If you must drive a screw where hidden wire
could be present, always hold tool by insulated gripping
surfaces (handle) when performing the operation to
prevent a shock to the operator.
NOTICE:
The impact driver is not designed to be used as a drill.
Place the direction of rotation selector in the correct
position for the operation.
Hold the impact driver with one hand.
Place the bit on the screw head and slowly depress the
switch trigger. Start the bit slowly for more control.
NOTE: The TRI-BEAM LED will illuminate as the trigger is
depressed.
As the screw is driven, impacting will begin.
