6.2 Selecting Rotation Direction (Forward/Reverse)

Use the forward/reverse selector switch located above the trigger to choose the desired rotation direction. Push the switch to the left for forward (tightening) and to the right for reverse (loosening). The center position locks the trigger.

6.3 Starting and Stopping the Tool

To start the tool, squeeze the trigger switch. The integrated LED work light will illuminate. To stop, release the trigger switch. The tool features variable speed control; applying more pressure to the trigger increases the speed.

The impact wrench offers multiple speed and impact rate settings for various applications:

  • No-load speed: 0-1600/0-1900/0-2300rpm
  • Impact rate: 0-2100/0-2500/0-2900bpm

Adjust the speed setting using the control buttons on the tool (if present, otherwise rely on variable trigger). Select a lower speed for delicate tasks and higher speeds for heavy-duty fastening or loosening.

  1. Select the appropriate socket for the fastener.
  2. Set the rotation direction (forward for tightening, reverse for loosening).
  3. Place the socket over the fastener.
  4. Squeeze the trigger to operate the tool. Apply steady pressure.
