OPERATION
INSTALLING/REMOVING BITS
See Figure 5, page 8.
To install bits, lock the switch trigger by placing the
direction of rotation selector in the center position.
Remove the battery pack.
Push the bit into the coupler until it clicks into place.
Pull on the bit to make sure it is secured in the coupler.
There may be some play in the installed bit; this is normal.
NOTE: Use only impact quality bits with a locking groove.
WARNING:
Make sure the bit is secured in the coupler before
using the impact driver. Failure to do so could
cause serious personal injury.
To remove bits, lock the switch trigger by placing the
direction of rotation selector in the center position.
Remove the battery pack.
With the nose of the tool pointed away from you, pull the

The bit will eject from the coupler.
USING THE IMPACT DRIVER
See Figures 6 - 7, page 8.
NOTICE:
The impact driver is not designed to be used as
a drill.
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 possibly shock the operator. If you must
drive a screw where hidden wire may be present,
always hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
(handle) when performing the operation to prevent
a shock to the operator.
