Use at low speed when high torque
● ●
is needed during operation. (Using at
high speed when high torque is re-
quired may cause a motor breakdown.)
Do not operate the speed selector
● ●
switch (LOW-HIGH) while pulling on
the speed control trigger. This can
cause the rechargeable battery to
wear quickly or damage the internal
mechanism of the motor.

CAUTION:
To prevent excessive temperature
● ●
increase of the tool surface, do not
operate the tool continuously using
two or more battery packs. The tool
needs cool-off time before switching
to another pack.
Do not close up vent holes on the
● ●
sides of the body during operation.
Otherwise, the machine function is
adversely affected to cause a failure.
Do NOT strain the tool (motor). This
● ●
may cause damage to the unit.
Use the tool in such a way as to pre-
● ●
vent the air from the body vent holes
from blowing directly onto your skin.
Otherwise, you may get burned.

(position
on the clutch), for confirming
the tightness of a screw or to loosen an
extremely tight screw.
