charge, causing the battery low warning
lamp to flash.
• If you notice the battery low warning
lamp flashing, charge the battery pack
immediately.
• If it is started with too little battery power
remaining, the tool may stop operating
without the battery low warning lamp
flashing first. This indicates that there is
too little battery power remaining to use
the tool, and the battery pack should be
charged before further use.
• If the tool is subject to a sudden load
during use that causes the motor to lock
up, the over current prevention sensor
may be triggered, and the impact power
select display may flash. The lamp will
stop flashing once you address the
cause of the motor’s locking up and
cycle the trigger.
Recommended Grip
Use the grip to hold and operate the driver
with one hand. If the job requires additional
force, you can push against the rear end of
the driver with your other hand.

For Appropriate Use of Bat-
tery Pack
Li-ion Battery Pack
• For optimum battery life, store the Li-ion bat-
tery pack following use without charging it.
• When charging the battery pack, confirm
that the terminals on the battery charger
are free of foreign substances such as
dust and water etc. Clean the terminals
before charging the battery pack if any
foreign substances are found on the ter-
minals.
The life of the battery pack terminals may
be affected by foreign substances such as
dust and water etc. during operation.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects like: paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other
small metal objects that can make a con-
nection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause sparks, burns or a fire.
• When operating the battery pack, make
sure the work place is well ventilated.
• When the battery pack is removed from
the main body of the tool, replace the bat-
tery pack cover immediately in order to
prevent dust or dirt from contaminating the
battery terminals and causing a short cir-
cuit.

[Battery Charger]
Charging
Cautions
• If the temperature of the battery pack
falls approximately below −10°C (14°F),
charging will automatically stop to prevent
degradation of the battery.
• 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.
• Use the charger at temperatures between
0°C and 40°C, and charge the battery at
a temperature similar to that of the battery
itself. (There should be no more than a
15°C difference between the temperatures
of the battery and the charging location.)
• When charging a cool battery pack (below
0°C (32°F)) in a warm place, leave the
battery pack at the place and wait for more
than one hour to warm up the battery to
the level of the ambient temperature.
