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 Nm,
230 k
f-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.
Speed Selection
Choose a low or high speed to suit
the use.
The more the speed control trigger is
pulled, the higher the speed becomes.
No load speed Torque
LOW 80 - 550/min (rpm) Strong
HIGH 300 - 2000/min (rpm) Weak
CAUTION: Check the speed selector
switch before use.
Use at low speed when
strong force is needed dur-
ing operation. (Using at
high speed while a strong
force is applied may cause
a motor breakdown.)
Do not operate the
speed selector switch
(LOW-HIGH) while pull-
ing on the speed control
trigger. This can cause
the rechargeable battery
to wear quickly or dam-
age the internal mecha-
nism of the motor.

For Appropriate use of Battery
pack
Ni-MH Battery pack EY9231
Charge the Ni-MH battery fully be-
fore storage in order to ensure a
longer service life.
The ambient temperature range is
between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C
(104°F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0°C
(32°F) the tool may fail to function
properly. In that case, charge the
battery until charging is completed
for appropriate functioning of the
battery.
When operating with a Ni-MH bat-
tery pack, make sure the place is
well-ventilated.
Battery Pack Life
The rechargeable batteries have a
limited life. If operation time becomes
extremely short after recharging,
replace the battery pack with a new
one.
Note: Use under extremely hot or
cold conditions will reduce
operating capacity per charge.
Charging
Note: When you charge the battery
pack for the first time, or after
prolonged storage, charge it
for about 24 hours to bring the
batteries up to full capacity.
