dirt is seen collecting in and around the
air vents. Wear approved eye protection
and approved dust mask when
performing this procedure.
WARNING: Never use solvents or
other harsh chemicals for cleaning the
non-metallic parts of the tool. These
chemicals may weaken the materials
used in these parts. Use a cloth
dampened only with water and mild
soap. Never let any liquid get inside the

DCF899, DCF899H 950 700 8400
WARNING: Ensure fastener and/
or system will withstand the level
of torque generated by the tool.
Excessive torque may cause
breakage and possible personal
injury.
1. Place the accessory on the fastener head. Keep
the tool pointed straight at the fastener.
2. Press switch to start operation. Release switch
to stop operation. Always check torque with
a torque wrench, as the fastening torque is
affected by many factors including the following:
• Voltage: Low voltage, due to a nearly
discharged battery, will reduce fastening
torque.
• Accessory size: Failure to use the correct
accessory size will cause a reduction in
fastening torque.
• Bolt size: Larger bolt diameters generally
require higher fastening torque. Fastening
torque will also vary according to length,
grade, and torque coefficient.
• Bolt: Ensure that all threads are free of rust
and other debris to allow proper fastening
torque.
• Material: The type of material and surface
finish of the material will affect fastening
torque.
• Fastening time: Longer fasten ing time
results in increased fastening torque.
Using a longer fastening time than recom-
mended could cause the fasteners to be
overstressed, stripped or damaged.
