www.lasertools.co.uk

This cordless impact screwdriver is part of the Laser professional workshop ‘one
battery powers all’ cordless tool range with brushless motor technology designed
and built for daily use. Cordless power is fast becoming the experts’ choice over
mains and pneumatic, bringing extra safety to the workforce environment.
This impact screwdriver is a compact design with comfortable grip; supplied with
soft-grip body for added control. It features a quick-release bit holder, and sturdy
belt clip attached to tool. There are three torque settings, plus a fourth setting that
automatically adjusts the speed to suit the torque required.
This cordless tool is powered by a 4Ah lithium-ion battery (not included) that
delivers fade-free performance for the entire run time. The tool will not experience
a slow, gradual loss of power. When the battery needs to be charged the tool will
stop. No memory effect on the battery allows the battery to quickly recover from a
deep discharge with no reduction of capacity. The battery features an LED power-
bar to determine its condition (level of power available).
Note: battery and battery charger not included. These are available under the
following part numbers:
8007: 10-cell lithium-ion battery - 4.0Ah.
8008: Mains powered battery charger — fitted with UK plug.
8009: Mains powered battery charger — fitted with euro plug.
Refer to specific instructions included with battery and battery charger for details of
fitting the battery pack to the tool and charging method.

Instructions
WARNING: Remove battery pack before any cleaning or maintenance is carried out.
• Refer to specific instructions included with battery and battery charger for details of fitting
the battery pack to the tool and charging method.
• Refer to Figure 1: Ensure the Forward / Reverse selector (3) is in the centre LOCK position,
before inserting the required screwdriver bit into the quick-release bit holder.
• Pull the collet on the quick-release bit holder forward (away from the tool) and insert the bit
holder and bit. Then pull the inserted bit holder forward to lock in place.
• Only use quick-chuck type bits or bit holder. Do not use standard bits without the suitable
quick-chuck holder.
• Note: In impact mode, use with suitable impact-grade bits only.
• Set the Forward / Reverse selector (3) to the desired function.
• Set the desired torque setting by pressing the torque selector button (5). There are four
torque settings:
1. Low.
2. Medium.
3. High.
4. Intelligent adjustment control (tool adjusts speed to suit the torque required).
• Squeeze the trigger to start the screwdriver; further pressure will increase the speed
subject to the selected torque setting.
• The LED worklight (4) lights up and shines onto the job when the trigger is depressed. It
stays on for approximately 4-6 seconds after the trigger is released.
• When finished, remove the bit holder by pulling the collet on the quick-release bit holder
forward (away from the tool) to release.
• The tool features overload and overheating protection. Power to the motor will be cut off
to extend tool and battery life if the tool is overloaded (draws an abnormally high current) or
overheats. Stop the condition that has caused the overload, or let the tool cool down before
restarting. If overheating, clean the tool using a dry cloth and soft brush. Then use clean, dry
compressed air to blow through the air vents.
