OPERATION

BATTERY PROTECTION FEATURES

Ryobi 18 V lithium-ion batteries are designed with

features that protect the lithium-ion cells and maximize

battery life. Under some operating conditions, these

built-in features may cause the battery and the tool

it is powering to act differ-ently from nickel-cadmium

batteries.

During some applications, the battery electronics may

signal the battery to shut down, and cause the tool to

stop running. To reset the battery and tool, release the

trigger and resume normal operation.

NOTE: To prevent further shut down of the battery, avoid

forcing the tool.

If releasing the trigger does not reset the battery and

tool, the battery pack is depleted. If depleted, the battery

pack will begin charging when placed on the lithium-ion

charger.

TO INSTALL BATTERY PACK

See Figure 2.

■ Place the rotation selector in the center position.

■ Insert the battery pack into the product as shown.

■ Make sure the latches on each side of the battery

pack snap in place and that battery pack is secured in

the product before beginning operation.

TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK

■ Depress the latches on each side of the battery pack.

■ Remove the battery pack from the impact wrench.

WARNING

Battery products are always in operating

condition. Therefore, the switch should always be

locked when not in use or carrying at your side.

CAUTION

The metal surface may become hot during use.

Avoid contact with it to avoid possible burn injury.

SWITCH TRIGGER

See Figure 3.

To turn the impact wrench ON, depress the switch trigger.

To turn it OFF, release the switch trigger.

The switch trigger can be locked in the OFF (center)

position. This feature can be used to prevent the

possibility of accidental starting when not in use. To lock

switch trigger, place the direction of rotation selector in

center position.

VARIABLE SPEED

The variable speed switch trigger delivers higher speed

with increased trigger pressure and lower speed with

decreased trigger pressure.

NOTE: You might hear a whistling or ringing noise from

the switch during use. Do not be concerned; this is a

normal part of the switch function.

ROTATION SELECTOR

(FORWARD/REVERSE/CENTER LOCK) (see Figure 3.)

The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled

by a selector located above the switch trigger. With the

drill held in normal operating position, the direction of

rotation selector should be positioned to the left of the

switch trigger for forward drilling. The drilling direction is

reversed when the selector is to the right of the switch

trigger.

Setting the switch trigger in the OFF (center lock) position

helps reduce the possibility of accidental starting when

not in use.

CAUTION:

To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck

to come to a complete stop before changing the

direction of rotation.

To stop, release switch trigger and allow the coupler to

come to a complete stop..

WARNING

Make sure the bit is secured in the coupler

before using the impact driver. Failure to do so

could cause serious personal injury.

WARNING

Do not drive a screw where there is likely to be

hidden wiring behind the surface. Contact with

a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of

the tool “live” and shock the operator. If you

must drive a screw where hidden wire may be

present, always hold tool by insulated gripping

surfaces (handle) when performing the operation

to prevent a shock to the operator, as seen in

figure 5.

CAUTION:

The impact driver is not designed to be used as a

drill.

INSTALLING AND REMOVING SOCKETS

See Figures 4.

Use only sockets designed for impact wrenches. Always

select the correct size impact socket for nuts and bolts.

Using the wrong size socket may damage the nut or

bolt and cause the fastening torque to be inaccurate or

inconsistent.

■ Remove the battery pack.
