Forward Rotation Switch
Operation
1. Push the lever for forward rotation.
2. Depress the trigger switch slightly to start
the tool slowly.

of depression of the trigger for efficient
tightening of bolts. The brake operates and
the socket stops immediately when the
trigger is released.
4. After use, set the lever to its center position
(switch lock).
Reverse Rotation Switch
Operation
1. Push the lever for reverse rotation. Check
the direction of rotation before use.
2. Depress the trigger switch slightly to start the
tool slowly.
3. After use, set the lever to its center position
(switch lock).
CAUTION:
• To eliminate excessive temperature
increase of the tool surface, do not
operate the tool continuously using two
or more battery packs. Tool needs cool
off time before switching to another pack.
Variable Speed Control
Trigger
To set the center of a hole, pull the trigger
slightly to start the socket rotation slowly.
The more the speed control trigger is
pulled, the higher the speed becomes.
CAUTION:
When operating the tool by depressing
the trigger, there may be a momentary lag
before rotation starts. This does not signal
a malfunction.
• This lag occurs as the tool’s circuitry
starts up when the trigger is pulled for
the first time after installing a new battery
pack or after the tool has not been
used for at least 1 minute. Rotation will
start without any lag during second and
subsequent operations.
