SAFETY
2) Electrical Safety:
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3) Personal Safety:
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before
connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
d)
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

is a normal condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the
battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm
environment such as in a metal shed or an uninsulated trailer.
3. A cold battery pack will charge at about half the rate of a warm battery pack. The
battery pack will charge at that slower rate throughout the entire charging cycle and
will not return to maximum charge rate even if the battery pack warms.
4. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance;
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off
when you turn out the lights;
c. Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air
temperature is approximately 65 ˚F–75 ˚F (18 ˚–24 ˚C);
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local
service center.
5. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power

Place the accessory on the fastener head. Keep the tool pointed straight at the fastener.
2. Press switch to start operation. Release switch to stop operation. Always check
torque with a torque wrench, as the fastening torque is affected by many factors
including the following:
• Voltage: Low voltage, due to a nearly discharged battery, will reduce fastening
torque.
• Accessory size: Failure to use the correct accessory size will cause a reduction in
fastening torque.
• Bolt size: Larger bolt diameters generally require higher fastening torque.
Fastening torque will also vary according to length, grade, and torque coefficient.
• Bolt condition: Ensure that all threads are free of rust and other debris to allow
proper fastening torque.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
•Material: The type of material and surface finish of the material will affect
fastening torque.
•Fastening time: Longer fastening time results in
increased fastening torque. Using a longer fastening
time than recommended could cause the fasteners
to become over-stressed, stripped or otherwise
damaged.
LIFT RING
The lift ring
H
is for moving the tool into difficult to reach
areas. Securely fasten lifting device to the ring before
moving the tool. Follow all worksite rules.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, DO NOT use the lift ring
for tethering or securing the tool to a person or object during use when elevated.
MAINTENANCE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Contact Klein Tools for authorized service centers.
• The charger and battery pack are NOT serviceable. To assure product safety and
reliability, repairs, maintenance and adjustments should be performed by a DeWALT
factory service center, a DeWALT authorized service center or other qualified service

CLEANING
IMPACT WRENCH: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least
once a week. To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye
protection when performing this.
Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of
the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials used in these parts. Use a
cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool;
never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
CHARGER: WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD. Disconnect the charger from the AC outlet
before cleaning. Dirt and grease may be removed from the exterior of the charger
using a cloth or soft non-metallic brush. Do not use water or any cleaning solutions.
