Switching on/off
WARNING: ALWAYS wear adequate personal protection equipment when
setting up and operating this machine.
1. To start the drill, squeeze the Trigger Switch (6)
2. The built-in Work Light LEDs (3) will illuminate when the Trigger Switch is
squeezed
Note: If the Trigger Switch cannot be pressed down, check that the Forward/
Reverse Switch (5) is not set to its middle position, which locks the device (see
'Direction control').
3. The speed of the Impact Driver is controlled by the movement of the trigger:
the further the Trigger Switch is pressed down, the faster the Impact Driver
will run
4. Release the Trigger Switch to stop the machine
WARNING: If the power tool gets excessively hot in use, stop using the tool
immediately and allow to cool before continuing work. The cooling period can be
reduced by operating the Impact Driver at maximum speed with no load. Always
make sure the Motor Vents (4) are not blocked and do not allow dust to enter
the body of the tool through the Motor Vents; dust, especially metallic dust, may
damage or destroy the tool.
