product damage.
OPERATION
USING THE IMPACT DRIVER
See Figures 5 - 6, page 8.
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 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.
WARNING:
The metal surface can become hot during use. Avoid
contact with it to avoid possible burn injury.
NOTICE:
The impact driver is not designed to be used as a drill.
 Check the direction of rotation selector for the correct
setting (forward or reverse).
 Hold the impact driver with one hand.
 Place the bit on the screw head and slowly depress the
switch trigger. Start the bit slowly for more control.
 As screw is driven, impacting will begin.
