IV. ASSEMBLY
NOTE:
When attaching or removing a bit,
disconnect battery pack from tool or
place the switch in the center position
(switch lock).
Attaching or Removing Bit
1. Hold the collar of quick connect chuck
and pull it out from the driver.
2. Insert the bit into the chuck. Release
the collar.
3. The collar will return to its original
position when it is released.
4. Pull the bit to make sure it does not
come out.
5. To remove the bit, pull out the collar in
the same way.
CAUTION:
If the collar does not return to its
original position or the bit comes out
when pulled on, the bit has not been
properly attached. Make sure the bit is
properly attached before use.
Use 6.35 mm hexagonal bits.
To ensure proper securement of the bit,
use only hexagonal bits with 9.5 mm
detent. [Fig.1]
Attaching or Removing Socket
[Fig.2]
1. Attaching Socket
Attach the socket by aligning the hole
with the ball detent on the square drive.
Make sure the socket is firmly connect-
ed to the body.
2. Removing Socket
Pull out the socket.
NOTE:
Keep the body above freezing point
(0°C 32°F) when attach or detach
sockets to the square drive on the body.
The cushion rubber in the square drive
to push up the ball may get hard under
freezing point. This requires extra force
in attaching and detaching sockets.
