Operation
Direction control
WARNING: NEVER change the direction of rotation while the tool is running. This may
cause permanent damage to the tool.
• The direction of rotation can be set using the Forward/Reverse Switch (5)
• For anti-clockwise rotation, push the switch to the right
• For clockwise rotation, push the switch to the left
Note: When the Forward/Reverse Switch (5) is in the central position, the drill is locked and
cannot be switched on. Use this setting as a safety feature to prevent the drill from being
switched on accidentally.
Switching on/off
WARNING: ALWAYS wear adequate personal protection equipment when setting up and
operating this machine.
1. To start the drill, squeeze the Trigger Switch (10)
2. The built-in LED Work Light (8 ) will illuminate when the Trigger Switch is squeezed
Note: If the Trigger Switch cannot be pressed down, check that the Forward/Reverse
Switch (5) is not set to its middle position, which locks the device (see 'Direction control').
3. The speed of the Impact Driver is controlled by the movement of the trigger: the
further the Trigger Switch is pressed down, the faster the Impact Driver will run
4. Release the Trigger Switch to stop the machine
WARNING: If the power tool gets excessively hot in use, stop using the tool immediately
and allow to cool before continuing work. The cooling period can be reduced by operating
the Impact Driver at maximum speed with no load. Always make sure the Motor Vents (4)
are not blocked and do not allow dust to enter the body of the tool through the Motor Vents;
dust, especially metallic dust, may damage or destroy the tool.
Battery Level Indicator
• Each time the trigger is squeezed the Battery Level Indicator (3) will display the
approximate level of remaining charge in the Battery. The power tool features electronic
cell protection to protect the lithium-ion cells from being completely discharged which
can damage cells especially when left in a fully discharged state for an extended period.
Shortly after the 'LO' section has been indicated on the Battery Level Indicator, the drill
will cease operating to protect the lithium-ion cells from being fully discharged.
Accessories
• A full range of accessories including various types of screwdriver bits is available from
your Silverline stockist. Spare parts can be obtained from toolsparesonline.com

WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the mains power supply, before carrying out any
maintenance/cleaning of the charger. Remove the battery before carrying out any
maintenance/cleaning of the Impact Driver.
Note: Both the Impact Driver and the charger contain no user-serviceable parts. If the
device does not perform as outlined in this manual, return it to an authorised Silverline
