(2) Regarding the temperature of the rechargeable
battery.
The temperatures for rechargeable batteries are as
shown in the table below, and batteries that have
become hot should be cooled for a while before
being recharged.
Table 4
(3) Regarding recharging time
Table 5
shows the recharging time required
according to the type of battery.
Table 5
Recharging time (approx. min.) at 20°C
NOTE:
The recharging time may vary according to the
ambient temperature.
4. Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger
after use, and then keep it.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new
batteries, etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries
and batteries that have not been used for an
extended period is not activated, the electric
discharge might be low when using them the first
and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon,
and normal time required for recharging will be
restored by recharging the batteries 2-3 times.
How to make the batteries perform longer.
(1) Recharge the batteries before they become
completely exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes
weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery.
If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the
electric current, the battery may be damaged and
its life will become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after
use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after
use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate,
and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the
battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Setting up and checking the work environment
Check if the work environment is suitable by
following the precautions.
HOW TO USE
1. Confirm the clutch dial position (See Fig. 5)
The tightening torque of this unit can be adjusted
according to the clutch dial position, at which the
clutch dial is set.
(1) When using this unit as a screwdriver, line up the
one of the numbers “1, 3, 5 ... 22” on the clutch dial,
or the dots, with the triangle mark on the outer body.
(2) When using this unit as a drill, align the clutch dial
drill mark “
” with the triangle mark on the outer
body.
CAUTION
䡬
The clutch dial cannot be set between the numerals
“1, 3, 5 ... 22” or the dots.
䡬
Do not use with the clutch dial numeral between
“22” and the line at the middle of the drill mark.
Doing so may cause damage (See
Fig. 6
).
