ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
This battery charger is provided with a 13 amp, 230 volt (50Hz), BS 1363 plug,
for connection to a standard, domestic electrical supply. Should the plug
need changing at any time, ensure that a plug of identical specification is
used.

If this appliance is fitted with a plug which is moulded on to the electric cable
(i.e. non-rewireable) please note:
1. The plug must be thrown away if it is cut from the electric cable. There is a
danger of electric shock if it is subsequently inserted into a socket outlet.
2. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

BATTERY CHARGING
1. The new battery pack will require charging before use.
2. Squeeze the battery release buttons on
either side of the battery pack and pull
gently down to disengage the battery pack
from the machine body as in Fig 1.
3. Insert the battery pack into the battery
charger, as shown in Fig 2, noting that it will
only fit one way.
4. Plug the charger into a 230v (mains) power
supply and switch ON.
• The green POWER ON light will illuminate
with the RED charging light flashing and
charging will begin.
• If charging does not take place, ensure
all connections are clean and free of
grease etc.
FIG 1

8
• If the red charging light will not stay on
for more than a few moments, the
battery pack is likely to be defective
and it must be replaced with a new
one.
• When the RED charging light goes out
after about 1/2 hour, and the GREEN
light remains on, the battery pack can
be considered charged and be
removed. The charging time will be
dependant upon the initial state of the
batteries.
• When charging a new battery pack, it
may not initially accept full charge. This
is common & does not indicate a fault.
It can be recharged fully after it has
been discharged a couple of times.
4. After charging, switch off and unplug the
charger from the power supply.
5. Remove the battery pack from the charger and slide it back into the
machine until it clips into place. The battery pack should slide in easily.
6. For maximum battery life, we recommend that you maintain the battery
in a fully charged state at all times.
If the battery pack is not to be fitted immediately, ensure that the metal contacts
are protected so as to avoid the possibility of a short circuit which would cause
damage.
Remember to avoid extremes of heat or cold when charging. Avoid temperatures
outside the range of Minimum 4°C /Maximum 40°C. Avoid placing batteries in
direct strong sunlight or any other heat source.
NOTE:
Ni-Cad batteries should be given a full charge when first supplied new. Maximum
battery performance will be achieved after approximately 5 complete charge/
discharge cycles.
The battery should be fully discharged before recharging in order to achieve its
optimum performance. Constant topping up after only a small amount of charge
has been used will, in effect, reduce its capacity.
Nickel cadmium batteries will slowly lose their power whilst in storage. If they
become fully discharged, no not leave the batteries in this state for any length of
time.

OPERATION
1. Squeeze the trigger to start the machine.
2. Increase the speed of the machine by increasing pressure on the trigger.
3. Release the trigger to stop.
4. To run the impact screwdriver in reverse,
push the switch bar through the drive unit
as shown in Fig 4. The direction of rotation
is shown on the end face of the bar.
• The 3-position switch bar controls forward
or reverse direction of rotation. Select the
appropriate setting ONLY when the chuck
is STATIONARY. Do not move the switch-bar
when the chuck is moving. When the
switch-bar is in the central position the
trigger is locked.
5. Always check the direction of rotation
before operation.
6. Hold the machine firmly and place the
point of the screwdriver bit in the screw
head. Apply sufficient pressure that the bit
will not slip off the screw and start the
machine.
Note: Take care to use the correct bit for the
head of screw that you wish to use. Take
care to point the machine straight at the screw.
INSTALLING & REMOVING THE BIT
1. Pull the sleeve away from the
machine body and insert the bit into
the sleeve as far as it will go. Release
the sleeve to secure the bit in place as
shown in Fig 3.
2. To remove the bit, pull the sleeve and
draw the bit out.
• If the bit is not inserted deep enough
into the sleeve, the sleeve will not
spring back and the bit will not be
secured. FIG 3
FIG 4

7. Before starting work, always perform a test operation to determine the
appropriate tightening effort for the screw in whatever material is being
used.
8. Turn off the machine as soon as the impact sound is heard, taking care
not to damage the screw. Extra care is needed with small screws.
Note: As the battery becomes discharged, the power available will drop.
Operating the machine at low speed will cause a reduction in torque.
9. After use, recharge the battery cartridge as shown on pages 7-8. Avoid
leaving your batteries in a discharged state.
MAINTENANCE
Keep the unit clean by wiping with a dry cloth. DO NOT use solvents as a
cleaning agent.
Keep the battery pack well charged at all times.
Check the battery charger power cable to ensure it is sound & free from
cracks etc.
All bearings in this tool are lubricated with sufficient amount of high quality
lubricant for the tool’s lifetime under normal operating conditions, therefore
no further lubrication is required.
Refer to your Clarke dealer if internal maintenance is required.
