Changing the impact force
► Fig.7: 1. Hard 2. Soft 3. Reverse rotation auto stop
mode 4. Changed in three steps 5. Button
The function of Reverse rotation auto stop mode works only with pulling the trigger fully in counterclockwise tool
rotation. When the bolt/nut gets enough loosened, the tool stops the impact and rotation.
You can change the impact force within approximately one minute after releasing the switch trigger.

NOTE: Reverse rotation auto stop mode is available only when the tool rotates counterclockwise. When rotating
clockwise in Reverse rotation auto stop mode, the impact force and speed are the same as Hard impact mode.
NOTE: When all lamps on the switch panel go out, the tool is turned off to save the battery power. The impact force
grade can be checked by pulling the switch trigger to the extent that the tool does not operate.
NOTE: While pulling the switch trigger, the impact force grade cannot be changed.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
Selecting correct impact socket
Always use the correct size impact socket for bolts and
nuts. An incorrect size impact socket will result in inac-
curate and inconsistent fastening torque and/or damage
to the bolt or nut.

You can change the impact force in three steps: hard,
soft, and Reverse rotation auto stop mode.
This allows a tightening suitable to the work.
Every time the button is pressed, the number of blows
changes in three steps.
Purpose
Installing hook
WARNING:
Use the hanging/mounting parts
for their intended purposes only, e.g., hanging the
tool on a tool belt between jobs or work intervals.
WARNING:
Be careful not to overload the
hook as too much force or irregular overburden
may cause damages to the tool resulting in per-
sonal injury.
CAUTION:
When installing the hook, always
secure it with the screw firmly. If not, the hook
may come off from the tool and result in the personal
injury.
CAUTION:
Make sure to hang the tool
securely before releasing your hold. Insufficient
or unbalanced hooking may cause falling off and you
may be injured.
► Fig.9: 1. Groove 2. Hook 3. Screw
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
This can be installed on either side of the tool. To install
the hook, insert it into a groove in the tool housing on
either side and then secure it with a screw. To remove,
loosen the screw and then take it out.
