WARNING
WEAR RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects
or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-base paints,
• Crystalline Silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and Chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well ventilated area and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.

WARNING
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust of fumes.
Keep bystanders children, and visitors away while
operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a
separate battery pack must be recharged only with
the specified charger for the battery.
A charger that may be suitable for one type of bat
tery may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery.
Use battery operated tool only with specifically de
signed battery pack.
Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in off
position before inserting battery. Carrying tools with
your finger on the switch or inserting the battery pack
into a tool with the switch on invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning
the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached
to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal
injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better

WARNING
TOOL USE AND CARE
-Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workplace to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of control.
-Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
-Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
-Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off position
before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
-Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are danger
ous in the hands of untrained users.

4. Disconnect battery charger from the receptacle.
CAUTION: DO NOT PULL THE PLUG OUT OF THE RECEPTACLE BY
PULLING ON THE CORD. MAKE SURE TO GRASP THE PLUG
WHEN REMOVING FROM RECEPTACLE TO AVOID DAMAGING
CORD.
5. Remove the battery from the battery charger. Supporting the battery charger with
hand, pull out the battery from the battery charger:
a. When the battery charger has been continuously used, the battery charger
will be heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the charging
has been completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.
b. If the battery is recharged when it is warm due to battery use or exposure to
sunlight, the pilot lamp may light in green. The battery will not be recharged.
In such a case, let the battery cool before charging.
c. When the pilot lamp flickers rapidly in red (at 0.2–second intervals), check for
and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery installation hole. If
there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your JOHN DEERE AUTHORIZED DEALER.
d. Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds to confirm that the
battery being charged with UC24YFA is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3
seconds before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is reinserted
within 3 seconds, the battery may not be properly charged.
REGARDING ELECTRIC DISCHARGE IN CASE OF NEW BATTERIES, ETC
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and batteries that have not been
used for an extended period is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when
using them the first and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time
required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2 – 3 times.
HOW TO MAKE THE BATTERIES PERFORM LONGER
1. Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted. When you feel
that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its
battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery
may be damaged and its life will become shorter.
2. Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery will be hot
immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its
internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened.
Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.

switch is pulled. Speed is low when the trigger switch is pulled slightly and
increases as the trigger switch is pulled more.
NOTE: A buzzing noise is produced when the motor is about to rotate; this is only a
noise, not a machine failure.

Operation
OPERATION (CONTINUED):
11. Tightening and loosening bolts:
A hex socket matching the bolt or nut must first be selected. Then mount the
socket on the anvil, and grip the nut to be tightened with the hex socket. Holding
the wrench in line with the bolt, press the power switch to impact the nut for several
seconds.
If the nut is only loosely fitted to the bolt, the bolt may turn wit the nut, therefore
mistaking proper tightening. In this case, stop impact on the nut and hold the bolt
head with a wrench before restarting impact, or manually tighten the bolt and nut to
prevent them slipping.
12. Number of bolt tightened possible:
Please refer to the table below for the number of bolt tightened possible with one
charge.
Bolt used No. of tightening
15/32" x 1-3/4" (M12 x 45) High Tension Bolt Approx. 120
These values may vary slightly, according to surrounding temperature and battery
characteristics.

Operation
OPERATION CAUTIONS:
1. Resting the unit after continuous work:
After use for continuous bolt-tightening work, rest the unit for 15 minutes or so
when replacing the battery. The temperature of the motor, switch, etc., will rise if
the work is started again immediately after battery replacement, eventually
resulting in burnout.
CAUTION: DO NOT TOUCH THE PROTECTOR, AS IT GETS
VERY HOT DURING CONTINUOUS WORK.
2. Cautions on use of the speed control switch:
This switch has a built-in, electronic circuit which steplessly varies the rotation
speed. Consequently, when the switch trigger is pulled only slightly (low speed
rotation) and the motor is stopped while continuously driving in screws, the
components of the electronic circuit parts may overheat and be damaged.
3. Tightening torque:
Refer to Fig. 16 for the tightening torque of bolts (according to size), under the
conditions shown in Fig. 17. Please use this example as a general reference, as
tightening torque will vary according to tightening conditions.
Tightening torque varies, depending on the battery’s charge level. Fig. 18 shows
an example of the relationship between tightening torque and the number of
tightening. As shown, tightening torque gradually weakens with the increase in
the number of tightening. In particular, as the torque decreases very close to the
complete discharge (“a” margin in graph), the unit’s impact weakens, the number
of time impacts declines and tightening torque drops off abruptly. If this occurs,
check torque level, then recharge the battery if necessary.
NOTE: If a long striking time is used, screws will be strongly tightened. This
may cause the screw to break, or may damage the end of the bit. If the unit is
held at an angle to the screw being tightened, the head of the screw may be
damaged, or the specified torque may not be transmitted to the screw. Always
keep the unit and the screw being tightened in a straight line.
4. Use a tightening time suitable for the screw:
The appropriate torque for a screw differs according to the material and size of the
screw, and the material being screwed etc., so please use a tightening time
suitable for the screw. In particular, if a long tightening time is used in the case of
screws smaller than 5/16" (8 mm), there is a danger of the screw breaking, so
please confirm the tightening time and the tightening torque beforehand.
5. Work at a tightening torque suitable for the bolt under impact:
The optimum tightening torque for nuts or bolts differs with material and size of
the nuts or bolts. An excessively large tightening torque for a small bolt may
stretch or break the bolt. The tightening torque increases in proportionate to the
operation time. Use the correct operating time for the bolt.
6. Holding the tool:
Hold the impact wrench firmly with both hands. In this case hold the wrench in line
with the bolt. It is not necessary to push the wrench very hard. Hold the wrench
with a force just sufficient to counteract the impact force.

7. Confirm the tightening torque:
The following factors contribute to a reduction of the tightening torque. So confirm
the actual tightening torque needed by screwing up some bolts before the job with
a hand torque wrench. Factors affecting the tightening torque are as follows.
a. Voltage:
When the discharge margin is reached, voltage decreases and tightening
torque is lowered.
b. Operating time:
The tightening torque increases when the operating time increases. But the
tightening torque does not increase above a certain value even if the tool is
driven for a long time. (See Fig. 16)
c. Diameter of bolt:
The tightening torque differs with the diameter of the bolt as shown in
Fig. 16. Generally a larger diameter bolt requires larger tightening torque.
d. Tightening conditions:
The tightening torque differs according to the torque ratio; class, and length
of bolts even when bolts with the same size threads are used. The tightening
torque also differs according to the condition of the surface of workplace
through which the bolts are to be tightened. When the bolt and nut turn
together, torque is greatly reduced.
e. Using optional parts:
The tightening torque is reduced a little when an extension bar, universal
joint or long sockets are used.
f. Clearance of the socket:
A worn or deformed hex or a square-holed socket will not give an adequate
tightness to the fitting between the nut or anvil, consequently resulting in loss
of tightening torque. Using an improper socket which does not match to the
bolt will result in an insufficient tightening torque.
g. Tightening torque varies, depending on the battery’s charge level Fig. 18
shows an example of the relationship between tightening torque and the
number of tightenings. As shown, tightening torque gradually weakens with
the increase in the number of tightenings. In particular, as the torque
decreases very close to the complete discharge (“a” margin in graph), the
unit’s impact weakens, the number of time impacts declines and tightening
torque drops off abruptly. If this occurs, check torque level, then recharge the
battery if necessary.

Maintenance and Inspection
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION:
CAUTION: PULL OUT BATTERY BEFORE DOING ANY INSPECTION OR
MAINTENANCE.
1. Checking the condition of the socket:
A worn or deformed hex or a square-holed socket will not give an adequate tightness
to the fitting between the nut or anvil, consequently resulting in loss of tightening
torque. Pay attention to wear of a socket holes periodically, and replace with a new
one if needed.
2. Check the Screws:
Loose screws are dangerous. Regularly inspect them and make sure they are tight.
CAUTION: USING THIS POWER TOOL WITH LOOSENED SCREWS IS
EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
3. Maintenance of the motor:
The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power
tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
4. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 19):
The motor employs carbon brushes which are
consumable parts. Since and excessively worn carbon
brush can result in motor trouble, replace the carbon
brush with new ones when it becomes worn to or near
the “wear limit”. In addition, always keep carbon
brushes clean and ensure that they slide freely within
the brush holders.
NOTE: When replacing the carbon brush with a new
one, be sure to use the JOHN DEERE Carbon
Brush Code No. 999054.
5. Replacing carbon brushes:
Take out the carbon brush by first removing the brush
cap and then hooking the protrusion of the carbon
brush with a flat head screw driver, etc., as shown in
Fig. 21.
When installing the carbon brush, choose the direction
so that the nail of the carbon brush agrees with the
contact portion outside the brush tube. Then push it in
with a finger as illustrated in Fig. 22. Lastly, install the
brush cap.
