Batteries can become faulty over time, individual cells in the battery can fail and the battery could short. The charger will not charge faulty batteries. Use another battery, if possible, to check correct functionality of the charger and purchase a replacement battery if a faulty battery is indicated.
-
DO NOT store lithium-ion battery packs in a discharged state over a long period as this can damage the lithium-ion cells.
For long-term storage, store batteries in a high charge state disconnected from the power tool. -
The capacity of batteries will reduce over time. After 100 charge cycles, the battery’s operation time and the maximum torque performance of the driver will slightly reduce. This decline will continue until the battery has minimal capacity after 250 charge cycles. This is normal and not a fault with the battery pack.
Fitting the driver bits
WARNING:
DO NOT fit any attachment with a maximum speed lower than the no load speed of
the machine.
- Pull the Collar of the Hex Bit Holder forward, and insert the bit.
- Release the Collar.
- Pull on the bit to check that it is securely fitted. If the bit is not secure, repeat the above procedure.
Note: Make sure screwdriver bits used are hardened and suitable for use with an impact driver.
Operation
Direction control
WARNING: NEVER change the direction of rotation while the tool is running. This may cause permanent damage to the tool.
- The direction of rotation can be set using the Forward/Reverse Switch
- For anti-clockwise rotation, push the switch to the right
- For clockwise rotation, push the switch to the left
Note:
When the Forward/Reverse Switch is in the central position, the drill is
locked and cannot be switched on. Use this setting as a safety feature to
prevent the drill from being switched on accidentally.
If the motor carbon brush showed sporadic spark during the use,it is the
normal phenomenon.
Switching ON/OFF
WARNING:
ALWAYS wear adequate personal protection equipment when setting up and
operating this machine.
-
To start the drill, squeeze the Trigger Switch
-
The built-in Work Light will illuminate when the Trigger Switch is squeezed
Note :
If the Trigger Switch cannot be pressed down, check that the Forward/Reverse Switch is not set to its middle position, which locks the device (see ‘Direction control’). -
The speed of the drill is controlled by the movement of the trigger: the further the Trigger Switch is pressed down, the faster the drill will run
-
Release the Trigger Switch to stop the machine
WARNING:
If the power tool gets excessively hot in use, stop using the tool immediately
and allow to cool before continuing work. The cooling period can be reduced by
operating the drill at maximum speed with no load.Always make sure the Motor
Vents are not blocked and do not allow dust to enter the body of the tool
through the Motor Vents; dust, especially metallic dust, may damage or destroy
the tool.
Install Belt Clip
The Belt clip is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.This can be
installed on the tool.To install the belt clip,install it into a groove in the
tool housing and then secure it with a Screw.To remove loosen the screw and
take it out.
Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the mains power supply, before carrying
out any maintenance/ cleaning of the charger. Remove the battery before
carrying out any maintenance/cleaning of the drill.
Note: Both the drill and the charger contain no user-serviceable parts.
General inspection
- Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight
- Inspect the supply cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or wear. Repairs should be carried out by an authorised service centre. This advice also applies to extension cords used with this too.
Cleaning
- Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly, and shorten the machine’s service life. Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
- Clean the tool casing with a soft damp cloth using a mild detergent. Do not use alcohol, petrol or strong cleaning agents
- Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts
Lubrication
- Slightly lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals with a suitable spray lubricant
Storage
- Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach of children
Disposal
- Always adhere to national regulations when disposing of power tools that are no longer functional and are not viable for repair.
- Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), with household waste
- Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct way to dispose of power tools
