Safety Information
WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations, and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings
- Work Area Safety: Keep your 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.
- Electrical Safety: Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
- Personal Safety: Always wear eye protection. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection for appropriate conditions. Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a power tool.
- Tool Use and Care: Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
- Battery Tool Use and Care: Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

Operating Instructions
1. Powering On/Off and Variable Speed
The tool is powered on by pressing the variable speed switch (trigger) and powered off by releasing it. The speed of rotation is controlled by the amount of pressure applied to the trigger. Pressing lightly results in lower speed, while pressing fully results in maximum speed.
2. Forward and Reverse Switch
The forward/reverse switch is located above the trigger. This switch controls the direction of rotation for tightening or loosening fasteners.
- Forward (Tightening): Push the switch to the left (when viewed from the rear of the tool).
- Reverse (Loosening): Push the switch to the right (when viewed from the rear of the tool).
- Lock Position: Center the switch to lock the trigger and prevent accidental operation. Always engage the lock when not in use or when changing accessories.

3. Speed Adjustment Modes
The AVTAPWTL Impact Wrench features three adjustable speed modes to suit different applications. These modes can be selected via the smart control panel at the base of the tool.
- Low (L): Approximately 1500 RPM - Ideal for delicate tasks or when precise control is needed.
- Medium (M): Approximately 2500 RPM - Suitable for general fastening and loosening.
- High (H): Approximately 3500 RPM - For maximum torque and speed, such as removing stubborn lug nuts.

4. Auto-Stop Function (Reverse Self-Stop)
The intelligent auto-stop function is designed to prevent fasteners from flying off after being loosened. This feature is activated when the tool is in reverse mode.
- Select the reverse direction using the forward/reverse switch.
- Activate the auto-stop function via the smart control panel.
- When the system detects that the screw or nut has been loosened, the tool will automatically stop rotating, protecting both the fastener and your safety.
5. LED Work Light
The integrated LED light illuminates the work area. It is designed with a delayed extinguishing function, meaning the light will remain on for 5-10 seconds after the trigger is released, providing continued visibility in dark spaces.
