● If the battery is rechraged when it is warm due
to battery use or exposure to sunlight, the pilot
lamp may light in green.
The battery will not be recharged. In such a case,
let the battery cool before charging.
● When the pilot lamp fl ickers rapidly in red (at
0.2–second intervals), check for and take out
any foreign objects in the charger's battery
installation hole. If there are no foreign objects,
it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized
Service Center.
BEFORE USE
Check the work area to make sure that it is clear of debris
and clutter.
Clear the area of unnecessary personnel. Ensure that
lighting and ventilation is adequate.
OPERATION
1. Installing the bit (WH18DSDL)
Always follow the following procedure to install driver
bit. (Fig. 6)
Guide sleeve
Driver bit Hexagonal hole
in the anvil
(1) Pull the guide sleeve forward.
(2) Insert the bit into the hexagonal hole in the anvil.
(3) Release the guide sleeve and it returns to its origianl
position.
CAUTION
If the guide sleeve does not return to its original
position, then the bit is not installed properly.
2. Removing the bit (WH18DSDL)
Please do the opposite point on the method of
installing bit.
3. Selecting the socket matched to the bolt (WR18DSDL)
Be sure to use a socket which is matched to the bolt
to be tightened. Using an improper socket will not only
result in insuffi cient tightening but also in damage to
the socket or nut.
A worn or deformed hex. or square-holed socket will
not give an adequate tightness for fi tting to the nut
or anvil, consequently resulting in loss of tightening
torque.
