Hold the tool firmly and place the socket over the bolt or nut. Turn the tool on and fasten for the proper fastening time. NOTE: • When fastening screw M8 (5/16") or smaller, carefully adjust pressure on the switch trigger so that the screw is not damaged. • Hold the tool pointed straight at the bolt or nut. • Excessive fastening torque may damage the bolt/nut or socket. Before starting your job, always perform a test operation to determine the proper fastening time for your bolt or nut. Especially for the bolt smaller than M8 (5/ 16"), perform the above test operation to prevent the trouble on socket or bolt, etc. 12
