Safety Information
Always observe basic safety precautions when using electric tools to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.
- Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
- Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
- Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
- Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
- Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
- Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
- Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Installing/Changing Bits
The screwdriver features a 1/4" magnetic chuck for quick and secure bit changes.
- Ensure the screwdriver is in the 'Lock' position (center position of the Forward/Reverse switch) to prevent accidental activation.
- Insert the desired 1/4" hex bit directly into the magnetic chuck until it is firmly seated.
- To remove a bit, simply pull it straight out from the chuck.
- For extended reach, insert the 50mm extension rod into the chuck first, then insert the desired bit into the extension rod.

Operating Instructions
Powering On/Off
To operate the screwdriver, press the ON/OFF switch (trigger) located on the handle. Release the switch to stop the tool.
Forward/Reverse Operation
The Forward/Reverse/Lock control switch is located near the top of the handle.
- Push the switch forward (towards the bit) for forward rotation (to drive screws).
- Push the switch backward (towards the base) for reverse rotation (to remove screws).
- Set the switch to the center position to lock the tool, preventing accidental activation and allowing for manual tightening/loosening if needed.
Using the LED Light
The integrated LED light automatically activates when the ON/OFF switch is pressed, illuminating your work area. It will turn off automatically when the switch is released.

Utilizing the Offset Driving Shaft
The offset design of this screwdriver allows it to reach screws in confined spaces and close to edges where traditional screwdrivers or drills might not fit.
- When working in corners or near obstacles, position the offset shaft to align the bit with the screw head.
- This design provides increased flexibility for precise work in challenging areas.

Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your screwdriver.
- Cleaning: Regularly wipe the tool with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Keep ventilation openings clear of dust and debris.
- Storage: Store the screwdriver and its accessories in the provided carrying case in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
- Battery Care: For long-term storage, charge the battery to approximately 50% every 3-6 months to maintain battery health.
