1. Fit Anvil of TW450D to the socket of 1R298.
2. Firmly holding the machine at its grip portion,
remove Keyless drill chuck by driving BTW450
in reverse mode.
Note: Use 1R359 to remove Keyless drill chuck
if it cannot be removed in this step.
See Figs. 6 and 7.
1. Open Drill chuck fully and remove M6x22
Flat head screw by turning it clockwise with
Slotted screwdriver.
Note: Use Impact driver to unscrew M6x22
(-) Flat head screw if it cannot be
removed manually.

When handling or storing multiple Rotors, be sure to keep a proper distance between Rotors as shown in Fig. 9A
because Rotor is a strong magnet, failure to follow this instruction could result in:
•Finger injury caused by pinching between Rotors pulling each other
•Magnetic loss of Rotors or damage on the magnet portion of Rotor. (Fig. 9B)

Trouble shooting
P 11/ 12
Whenever you find any trouble in your machine, first, refer to this list to check the machine for solution.
(1) Use the full charged battery which has the star mark. (Fig. T-1 )
(2) When Housing is disassembled, check the conditions of the electrical parts
(Connectors, Lead wires, Switches, etc.), Armature, Stator, Gear section, etc.
(3) Do the running test in Low speed mode (when the trigger is being pulled just a little)
to check the following functions by repeating 10 times;
• F/R change lever • Operation mode change ring • High/Low speed change lever
• Variable speed control trigger
