GENERAL SPECIFICATION

Voltage: DC 4V
No load speed : 230RPM
Charger: Input AC100~ 240V, 50Hz/60Hz
Charging time: Approx. 3-5 hours
Battery type: Li-ion 3.7V :-:-: 1300mAh

SCREWDRIVER BIT INSERTION

Select the screwdriver tip that best fits the fastener to be removed or installed. Place the bit into the screwdriver collet and ensure it is in all the way. The cordless screwdriver ONLY accepts 1/4 in. hex-shaft screwdriver bits.

The cordless screwdriver should only be used as a screwdriver. DO NOT attempt tom use the tool as a drill using drill bits with 1/4 in. hex-shafts. The cordless screwdriver does not have the speed necessary to be used as a drill.

NOTE

The internal battery is not fully charged. Before first use. the battery requires 5-8 hours charge time to be fully charged. Subsequent recharging needs 3-5 hours for the battery to be fully charged.

Always recharge internal battery when tool performance begins to diminish. Severe heat is most destructive to a battery; the more
heat generated, the faster the battery loses power. A battery that gets too hot can have a shortened life.

Never over-discharge a battery by using the tool even after tool performance has decreased. Do not attempt to discharge a tool’s battery by continuing to pull on the tool trigger. When tool performance begins to diminish, stop the tool and recharge the battery for optimal performance.

Charge internal battery at ambient temperatures between +50°F(10°C)-95°F(35°C). Store tool and battery in locations where temperatures will not exceed 120°F. This is important to prevent serious damage to the battery cells.

CHARGER

WARNING : Before using the AC battery charger unit, please read carefully all instructions and cautionary markings on charger, battery
and product using battery.

Use only the charger which accompanied your product or direct replacement as listed in this manual. Do not substitute any other charger.

Do not disassemble charger. Do not use charger if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the rain, snow, wet or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.

When the battery requires recharging, a 3-5 hour charge allows the tool to operate at full power. A charging indicator light on the charger will illuminate to show that charging is taking place.

CHARGING THE SCREWDRIVER

The cordless screwdriver has a rechargeable state-of-the-art Lithium- ion battery. The battery is charged with a charger that is plugged into the screwdriver on the end side of the handle. The charging unit uses common prongs (both prongs are the same) requiring no special polarized or grounded AC receptacles. Both the charger unit and the plug are moulded that cannot be opened for repair.

To charge the battery on the cordless screwdriver, use the following steps:

1. Plug the output cord of the charger into the socket as shown in Figure 1
2. Plug the charger into standard electrical outlet.
