The Wickes CSD36Y1 3.6V Lithium Cordless Screwdriver, SKU 223751, is a versatile and compact power tool designed for driving in and loosening screws. This manual provides comprehensive safety warnings, operational instructions, and maintenance guidelines to ensure safe and effective use.
Function Description:
The cordless screwdriver is primarily intended for fastening and unfastening screws. It features a forward/reverse rotation control, allowing for easy switching between driving and removing screws. The tool is equipped with a torque adjustment ring, enabling users to set the appropriate torque for various applications, from small screws to screws in soft materials. An integrated LED work light enhances visibility in dark or enclosed areas. The handle can be rotated to switch between a straight handle and a pistol grip, offering flexibility and comfort during operation. The tool is powered by a 3.6V Li-ion battery, which is protected against deep discharging and includes a battery capacity indicator to show the remaining charge.

Usage Features:
- Collet Locking Sleeve: The tool features a collet locking sleeve (1) that accepts standard 1/4” hexagonal shank accessories with a power groove. To insert a bit, pull the sleeve backward, insert the bit, and release the sleeve. It is crucial to ensure the bit is fully locked by attempting to pull it after releasing the sleeve. This tool is not designed for drilling applications, as its shut-off clutches can activate unexpectedly, potentially causing the tool to twist out of hand.
- On/Off Switch: The on/off switch (5) activates the tool when depressed and stops it when released.
- Forward/Reverse Rotation and Lock Control: A control (4) located above the on/off switch allows for changing the rotation direction of the chuck. Pressing the control to the right activates forward function (driving screws), and pressing it to the left activates reverse function (removing screws). The control can also be set to a center position to lock the on/off switch, preventing accidental starting and battery discharge. It is important to ensure the tool comes to a complete stop before changing the direction of rotation to prevent damage.
- LED Work Light: The integrated LED light (3) illuminates automatically when the trigger is pressed, providing improved visibility in dimly lit work areas.
- Rotating Handle: The handle can be adjusted from a pistol grip to a straight handle by pressing and holding the button (8) while rotating the handle to the desired position. Releasing the button locks the handle in place.
- Torque Adjustment: The torque adjustment ring (2) allows users to select from 6+1 clutch positions. Higher settings provide greater torque, suitable for driving larger screws or into harder materials, while lower settings are ideal for smaller screws or softer materials. The manual suggests settings: 1-3 for small screws, 4-6 for screws into soft material, and the drill purpose setting for drilling.
- Battery Charging: The tool's Li-ion battery is charged using the supplied charger (9). The charging procedure involves connecting the charger to a power outlet and then to the charging socket (10) on the tool. A red light indicates charging, and the light turns off when fully charged, typically after 1 hour. If the tool is too hot, the light will flash red, indicating the need for cooling before charging.
- Battery Capacity Indicator: Pressing the battery capacity indicator button (7) activates a light display that shows the remaining charge:
- Red on: 0-33%
- Red on + Yellow on: 33%-66%
- Red on + Yellow on + Green on: 66%-100%
- Green on: Fully Charged
- Red flash: Indicates battery temperature protection (temperature less than 0°C or more than 40°C).
- Overload Protection: The motor will stop if overloaded. Users should relieve the load immediately and allow the machine to cool for approximately 30 seconds at the highest no-load speed.
- Temperature Dependent Overload Protection: If the load is too high or the battery temperature exceeds 75°C, the electronic control will switch off the tool until the battery cools down.
- Protection Against Deep Discharging: The Li-ion battery is protected by a "Discharging Protection System," which switches off the machine when the battery is empty, preventing damage.
Maintenance Features:
- General Maintenance: The tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance by the user. There are no user-serviceable parts.
- Cleaning: Do not use water or chemical cleaners. Wipe the tool clean with a dry cloth.
- Storage: Store the power tool in a dry place.
- Ventilation: Keep the motor ventilation slots clean and free of dust. Occasional sparks through the ventilation slots are normal and do not indicate damage.
- Battery Care: For optimal performance and longer life, charge the battery pack when the air temperature is between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid charging below 0°C or above 40°C, as this can seriously damage the battery pack.
- Disposal: The Li-ion battery pack should be recycled properly. Discharge the battery pack by operating the tool, then remove it from the housing and cover the connections with heavy-duty adhesive tape to prevent short circuits. Do not attempt to open or remove components. Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste but recycled where facilities exist.
This cordless screwdriver is a reliable tool for various household and light professional fastening tasks, emphasizing user safety and product longevity through its design and recommended usage practices.
