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
● ●
prevent the air from the body vent
holes from blowing directly onto your
skin. Otherwise, you may get burned.
Bit-locking Function
1. With the trigger switch not engaged
and a screwdriver bit locked in
place, the tool can be used as a
manual screwdriver (up to 22.6 N·m,
230 kgf-cm, 199 in-lbs).
There will be a little play in the chuck,
but this is not a malfunction.
2. This feature is handy for tightening
screws that require more torque than
the maximum torque of the driver
(position on the clutch), for confirming
the tightness of a screw or to loosen an
extremely tight screw.
