To turn on the lamp status, press the button
one second. To turn off the lamp status, press the but-
ton for one second again.
With the lamp status ON, pull the switch trigger to turn on
the lamp. To turn off, release it. The lamp goes out approx-
imately 10 seconds after releasing the switch trigger.
With the lamp status OFF, the lamp does not turn on
even if pulling the trigger.
NOTE: To confirm the lamp status, pull the trigger.
When the lamp lights up by pulling the switch trigger,
the lamp status is ON. When the lamp does not come
on, the lamp status is OFF.
NOTE: Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of
the lamp. Be careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or
it may lower the illumination.
NOTE: While pulling the switch trigger, the lamp
status cannot be changed.
NOTE: For approximately 10 seconds after releasing
the switch trigger, the lamp status can be changed.
Reversing switch action
► Fig.8: 1. Reversing switch lever
CAUTION:
Always check the direction of
rotation before operation.
CAUTION:
Use the reversing switch only after
the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direc-
tion of rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool.
CAUTION:
When not operating the tool, always
set the reversing switch lever to the neutral position.
This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction
of rotation. Depress the reversing switch lever from the
A side for clockwise rotation or from the B side for coun-
terclockwise rotation.
When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral posi-
tion, the switch trigger cannot be pulled.
For approximately one minute after releasing the switch
trigger, the impact force can be changed.
Hard, Medium, and Soft impact mode allows a tighten-
ing suitable to the work.
The function of reverse rotation auto stop mode works
only with pulling the trigger fully in counterclockwise tool
rotation. When the bolt/nut gets enough loosened, the
tool stops the impact and rotation.
