MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
1. Inspecting the driver bit
Using a broken bit or one with a worn out tip is dangerous
because the bit can slip. Replace it.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that
they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be
loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could
result in serious hazard.
3. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the power
tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
4. Inspection of terminals (tool and battery)
Check to make sure that swarf and dust have not
collected on the terminals.
On occasion check prior, during and after operation.
CAUTION
Remove any swarf or dust which may have collected on
the terminals.
Failure to do so may result in malfunction.
5. Cleaning on the outside
When the impact driver is stained, wipe with a soft dry
cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not use
chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, for they melt
plastics.

Storing lithium-ion batteries.
2
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully
charged before storing them.
2
Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with
2
a low charge may result in performance deterioration,
signifi cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering
3
the batteries incapable of holding a charge.
3
However, signifi cantly reduced battery usage time may
3
be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the
batteries two to fi ve times.
3
If the battery usage time is extremely short despite
repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead
