BATTERY AND CHARGER SAFETY WARNINGS
• The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power (230-240 volts). Do not
attempt to use it on any other voltage!
• The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. First read the safety instructions and then
follow the charging notes and procedures.
• The longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air
temperature is between 18 - 24ºC. Do not charge the battery pack in an air temperature below 10ºC
or above 40ºC. This is important and will prevent damage to the battery pack.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is seriously damaged or is completely worn out. The
battery can explode in a fire.
• Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack
breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.
• During charging, the battery must be placed in a well ventilated area.
TROUBLESHOOTING
LED lights do not illuminate on charger
Check the charger is securely plugged into the wall outlet. Check the battery is firmly connected to the
charger.
The battery has a short run time
Ensure the battery is properly charged. It will take 4-5 charging cycles before the battery reaches optimum
charge and run time. On the initial charge, the battery requires 1 hours of charging. Subsequent charging
only requires 0.5-1 hours.
Variable speed trigger is locked
Ensure that the forward / reverse lever is in the correct position; pressed left for forwards direction, pressed
right for backwards direction. If it is in between the two settings the variable speed trigger will be locked.
The Impact Wrench is stripping the screw head
Ensure you are not applying to much force to the wrench. Decrease the force by using a slower trigger
speed.
Impact Wrench has cut out during use
Use the battery indicator button to check if the battery has gone flat. If the indicator does not work or
indicates that the battery still has charge, it is likely that the battery's thermal voltage protection has been
activated. This can happen when the wrench has been used for extended periods or worked hard with
large wrench bits or accessories. Place the battery on the charging cradle for 0.5-1 hours. It will need this
time to cool down and for the protection circuits to be reset.
