NOTICE:
If you use a spare battery to continue the operation, rest the tool at least 15 min.
NOTE:
Use the proper bit for the head of the screw / bolt that you wish to use.
NOTE:
When fastening M8 or smaller screw, carefully adjust pressure on the switch trigger so that the screw
is not damaged.
NOTE:
Hold the tool pointed straight at the bolt or nut.
NOTE:
If the impact force is too strong or you tighten the screw for a time longer than shown in the figures,
the screw or the point of the driver bit may be over- stressed, stripped, damaged, etc. Before starting your
job, always perform a test operation to determine the proper fastening time for your screw.
The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of factors including the following. After fastening, always
check the torque with a torque wrench.
1. When the battery cartridge is discharged almost completely, voltage will drop and the fastening torque will
be reduced.
2. Impact socket
● Failure to use the correct size impact socket will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
● A worn impact socket (wear on the hex end or square end) will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
3. Bolt
● Even though the torque coefficient and the class of bolt are the same, the proper fastening torque will
differ according to the diameter of bolt.
● Even though the diameters of bolts are the same, the proper fastening torque will differ according to the
torque coefficient, the class of bolt and the bolt length.
