• Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are
properly tightened.
• When using the screwdriver, use safety equipment
including safety glasses or shield, ear defenders, and
protective clothing including safety gloves.
• Do not charge the screwdriver in a place where static
electricity is generated nor let the battery touch something
that is statically charged.
• Take care where the tool is stored. Do not store in areas
of corrosive fumes, or salt air or similar conditions.
• Do not dispose of the tool in a fire or put the tool into
a microwave oven, conventional oven, dryer, or high-

• Never attempt to open the tool, puncture the casing of
the tool, or subject the tool to strong physical shock. If
the plastic housing of the tool breaks open or cracks,
immediately discontinue its use and do not recharge it.

deformation, or if the tool is in an abnormal condition.

replace the capacitor, repair or modify any part of the tool.
• When recycling, make it nonconductive by applying
insulating tape to cover the terminals located on the
bottom of the screwdrivers body.

a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
