The direction of rotation (forward/reverse) is controlled by the selector switch located above the trigger.

  • Forward Rotation (Screwing In): Push the selector switch to the left.
  • Reverse Rotation (Screwing Out): Push the selector switch to the right.
  • Vergrendelingspositie: When the selector switch is in the middle position, the ON/OFF switch is locked, preventing accidental activation. Always engage the lock when not in use or when changing bits.

5.3 Using the Impact Driver

  • Position the bit firmly on the screw head.
  • Start the tool by gently pressing the trigger, increasing pressure as needed. The impact mechanism will engage automatically when resistance is met, providing additional torque.
