Troubleshooting
Tool does not power on
Ensure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Check for any obstructions around the power switch.
Reduced torque or speed
The battery may be low on charge; try a fully charged battery. Check if the selected speed/torque level is appropriate for the task. Ensure air vents are not blocked.
Impact wrench stopping unexpectedly
This could be due to overload protection. Release the trigger, ensure the socket is properly seated, and try again on a lower torque setting if applicable. Check for any binding in the fastener or workpiece.
Difficulty removing fasteners
Ensure you are using the correct socket size. Engage the APS mode or select a higher torque setting if appropriate. Apply penetrating oil to the fastener if rusted.
