TECHNICAL DATA CORDLESS IMPACT SCREWDRIVER

WARNING
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare  one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration and noise emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for diff erent applications, with diff erent accessories or  poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diff er. This may signifi cantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing  the job. This may signifi cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eff ects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm,  organization of work patterns.

WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifi cations provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in  electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

IMPACT SCREWDRIVER SAFETY WARNINGS
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a „live“ wire may make  exposed metal parts of the power tool „live“ and could give the operator an electric shock. Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

OPERATION

Note: It is recommended after fastening to always check the torque with a torque wrench.
The fastening torque is aff ected by a wide variety of factors including the following.

• State of battery charge – When the battery is discharged voltage will drop and the fastening torque will be reduced.
• Operation at speeds – Operating the tool at low speeds will cause a reduction in fastening torques.
• Fastening position – Holding the tool or the driving fastener in various angles will aff ect the torque.
• Drive accessory/socket – Failure to use the correct size accessory or socket, or a non-impact rated accessory may cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
• Use of accessories and extensions – Depending on the accessory or extension fi tment can reduce the fastening force of the impact wrench.
• Bolt/Nut – Fastening torques may diff er according to the diameter of the nut or bolt, the class of nut/bolt and the length of nut/bolt.
• Condition of the fastener – Contaminated, corroded, dry or lubricated fasteners may vary the fastening torques.
• Condition and base material – The base material of the fastener and any component in between the surfaces mayeff ect the fastening torque (dry or lubricated base,  soft or  hard base, disc, seal or washer between fastener and base material).

IMPACTING TECHNIQUES

The longer a bolt, screw, or nut is impacted, the tighter it will become.
To help prevent damaging the fasteners or workpieces, avoid excessive impacting.
Be particularly careful when impacting smaller fasteners because they require less impacting to reach optimum torque.
Practice with various fasteners, noting the length of time required to reach the desired torque.
Check the tightness with a hand-torque wrench.
If the fasteners are too tight, reduce the impacting time.
If they are not tight enough, increase the impacting time.

Oil, dirt, rust or other matter on the threads or under the head of the fastener aff ects the degree of tightness.
The torque required to loosen a fastener averages 75% to 80% of the tightening torque, depending on the condition of the contacting surfaces.
On light gasket jobs, run each fastener down to a relatively light torque and use a hand torque wrench for fi nal tightening.

BATTERIES

Battery packs which have not been used for some time should be recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the performance of the battery pack. Avoid extended exposure to heat or sunshine (risk of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum life-time, after use, the battery packs have to be fully charged.
To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery pack from the charger once it is fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days: Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27°C and away from moisture
Store the battery packs in a 30% – 50% charged condition
Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.

BATTERY PACK PROTECTION

In extremely high torque, binding, stalling and short circuit situations that cause high current draw, the tool will vibrate for about 2 seconds and then the tool will turn OFF.
To reset, release the trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal temperatur of the battery could become to high. If this happens, the battery will shut down.
Place the battery on the charger to charge and reset it.
