5. Holding the tool
Hold the tool fi rmly with both hands. In this case hold
the tool in line with the screw or bolt.
It is not necessary to push the tool very hard. Hold the
tool with a force just suffi cient to counteract the impact
force.
6. Confi rm the tightening torque
The following factors contribute to a reduction of the
tightening torque. So confi rm the actual tightening
torque needed by screwing up some bolts before the
job with a hand torque wrench. Factors aff ecting the
tightening torque are as follows.
(1) Voltage
When the discharge margin is reached, voltage
decreases and tightening torque is lowered.
(2) Operating time
The tightening torque increases when the operating
time increases. But the tightening torque does not
increase above a certain value even if the tool is
driven for a long time.
(3) Diameter of bolt
The tightening torque diff ers with the diameter of the
bolt. Generally a larger diameter bolt requires larger
tightening torque.
(4) Tightening conditions
The tightening torque diff ers according to the torque
ratio; class, and length of bolts even when bolts with
the same size threads are used. The tightening torque
also diff ers according to the condition of the surface of
workpiece through which the bolts are to be tightened.
When the bolt and nut turn together, torque is greatly
reduced.
(5) Tightening torque varies, depending on the battery’s
charge level.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
CAUTION:
Pull out battery before doing any inspection or maintenance.
1. Checking the condition of the bit
The bits should be checked regularly. If worn or
broken bits can slip or decrease the effi ciency of the
motor and burn it out.
Replace worn bits with new ones.
CAUTION
If you use a driver bit of which point is worn or
broken, it will be dangerous since it slips. So
replace it with a new one.
2. Check the Screws
Loose screws are dangerous. Regularly inspect them
and make sure they are tight.
CAUTION
Using this power tool with loosened, screws is
extremely dangerous.
3. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power
tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
4. Check for Dust
Dust may be removed with a soft cloth or a cloth
dampened with soapy water.
Do not use bleach, chlorine, gasoline or thinner, for
they may damage the plastics.
5. Inspection of terminals (tool and battery)
Check to make sure that swarf and dust have not
collected on the terminals.
On occasion check prior, during and after operation.
CAUTION
Remove any swarf or dust which may have
collected on the terminals.
Failure to do so may result in malfunction.
6. Disposal of the exhausted battery
WARNING
Do not dispose of the exhausted battery. The
battery must explode if it is incinerated. The
product that you have purchased contains a
rechargeable battery. The battery is recyclable.
At the end of it’s useful life, under various state
and local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this
battery into the municipal waste stream. Check
with your local solid waste offi cials for details
in your area for recycling options or proper
disposal.
