Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the fastener may contact hidden
wiring. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
Do not drive fasteners into existing walls or
other blind areas where electrical wiring
may exist. If this situation is unavoidable,
disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers
feeding this worksite.
Use only sockets designed for power impact
wrenches. Sockets designed for hand use
may break under the load this tool generates.
Be certain to seat the socket completely and
securely on the output drive.
Do not use worn or damaged sockets.
Select the correct size sockets and keep the
inside of the socket clean.
Do not allow a loose fastener to spin freely
with the socket. The fastener may be thrown
out of the socket.
Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the
exposure time by taking frequent rest
periods. Vibration caused by impact driver
action may be harmful to your hands and
arms.
Remove battery pack before changing
accessories. Accidental starting may occur
because battery appliances with a battery
inserted are in the operative condition.
Be prepared for a reaction torque when
“seating” or removing a fastener. The tool
housing may tend to twist in the opposite
direction of accessory rotation when
“seating” or removing a fastener depending
on the torque setting of the tool.
Do not run the tool while carrying it at
your side. The rotating drive could become
entangled with clothing and injury may
result.
Place the tool onto the fastener only when
the tool is switched off. Rotating driver
tools can slide off the fastener.
Safety Rules for Cordless Impact Drivers
ejected from the battery, avoid contact. If
c
ontact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire
or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire
or temperature above 265 °F may cause
explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the
instructions. Charging improperly or at
t
emperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the
risk of fire.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorized
service providers.
