 Do not exert pressure on to the tool. To do so would shorten
its service life.
 If you are interrupted when operating an impact driver,
complete the process and switch off before looking up.
 Where possible, use clamps or a vice to hold your work.
 Examine the bit holder regularly for signs of wear or damage.
Have damaged parts repaired by a qualified service centre.
 Always wait until the impact driver has come to a complete
stop before putting it down.
 Periodically check all nuts, bolts and other fixings and tighten
where necessary.
 Only use bits and accessories, specifically designed for use
with impact drivers. Conventional bits and accessories may
shear off during use, or be otherwise damaged, potentially
ejecting dangerous projectiles.
 Ensure that fasteners are suitable for impact driver use. Nuts,
bolts and screws that are not suitable for high torque applica-
tion may be damaged.
 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
