GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result
in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
CLASS 1 LED PRODUCT
1. WORK AREA SAFETY
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
b. 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 or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodifi ed 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 elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. 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 power tools in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD 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 fi nger on the switch or energising 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.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-
lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that can
not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preven-
1
English
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tools operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc., in accordance with these instructions and
in the manner intended for the particular type
of power tool, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use
of the power tool for operations different from
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fi re
when used with another battery pack.
b. Use power tools only with specifically desig-
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fi re.
c. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects, that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fi re.
d. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
6. SERVICE
a. 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.

APPLICATIONS
You may use this product for the purposes listed below:
■ Fastening/removing screws and bolts.
This product will accept Ryobi One+ 18 V lithium-ion
battery packs and Ryobi One+ 18 V nickel-cadmium
battery packs.
WARNING
Always remove battery pack from your impact
wrench when you are assembling parts, making
adjustments, assembling or removing bits,
cleaning, or when not in use. Removing battery
pack will prevent accidental starting that could
cause serious personal injury.
BATTERY PROTECTION FEATURES
Ryobi 18 V lithium-ion batteries are designed with
features that protect the lithium-ion cells and maximize
battery life. Under some operating conditions, these
built-in features may cause the battery and the tool it is
powering to act differently from nickel-cadmium batteries.
During some applications, the battery electronics may
signal the battery to shut down, and cause the tool to
stop running. To reset the battery and tool, release the
trigger and resume normal operation.
NOTE: To prevent further shut down of the battery, avoid
forcing the tool.
If releasing the trigger does not reset the battery and
tool, the battery pack is depleted. If depleted, the battery
pack will begin charging when placed on the lithium-ion
charger.
TO INSTALL BATTERY PACK
See Figure 2.
■ Place the rotation selector in the center position.
■ Insert the battery pack into the product as shown.
■ Make sure the latches on each side of the battery
pack snap in place and that battery pack is secured in
the product before beginning operation.
TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK
■ Depress the latches on each side of the battery pack.
■ Remove the battery pack from the impact wrench.
WARNING
Battery products are always in operating
condition. Therefore, the switch should always
be locked when not in use or carrying at your
side.
CAUTION
The metal surface may become hot during use.
Avoid contact with it to avoid possible burn injury.
SWITCH TRIGGER
See Figure 3.
To turn the impact wrench ON, depress the switch trigger.
To turn it OFF, release the switch trigger.
The switch trigger can be locked in the OFF (center)
position. This feature can be used to prevent the
possibility of accidental starting when not in use. To lock
switch trigger, place the direction of rotation selector in
center position.
VARIABLE SPEED
The variable speed switch trigger delivers higher speed
with increased trigger pressure and lower speed with
decreased trigger pressure.
NOTE: You might hear a whistling or ringing noise from
the switch during use. Do not be concerned; this is a
normal part of the switch function.
ROTATION SELECTOR
(FORWARD/REVERSE/CENTER LOCK)
See Figure 3.
The direction of bit rotation is reversible and is controlled
by a selector located above the switch trigger. With the
impact wrench held in normal operating position, the
rotation selector should be positioned to the left of the
switch trigger for forward drilling. The drilling direction is
reversed when the selector is to the right of the switch
trigger.
Setting the switch trigger in the OFF (center lock) position
helps reduce the possibility of accidental starting when
not in use.

CAUTION:
To prevent gear damage, always allow the chuck
to come to a complete stop before changing the
direction of rotation.
To stop, release switch trigger and allow the coupler to
come to a complete stop.
WARNING
Make sure the bit is secured in the coupler
before using the impact wrench. Failure to do so
could cause serious personal injury.
WARNING
Do not drive a screw where there is likely to
be hidden wiring behind the surface. Contact
with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts
of the tool “live” and shock the operator. If you
must drive a screw where hidden wire may be
present, always hold tool by insulated gripping
surfaces (handle) when performing the operation
to prevent a shock to the operator, as seen in
figure 5.
CAUTION:
The impact wrench is not designed to be used as
a drill.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING SOCKETS
See Figures 4.
Use only sockets designed for impact wrenches. Always
select the correct size impact socket for nuts and bolts.
Using the wrong size socket may damage the nut or
bolt and cause the fastening torque to be inaccurate or
inconsistent.
■ Remove the battery pack.
■ Push the socket onto the drive shank until the detent
pin locks it into place.
■ To remove the socket, pull it away from the drive
shank.
OPERATING THE IMPACT WRENCH
See Figures 5.
Proper fastening torque may be determined by the
kind of bolt, the size of the bolt or the material or the
workpiece. It is helpful to perform a test operation to
determine the proper fastening time for the nut or bolt
you are using. While performing the test, make note of
the speed selection.
■ Hold the tool pointed straight at the nut or bolt.
■ Depress the switch and fasten for the proper
fastening time.
■ After fastening, always check the torque with a torque
wrench.
NOTE: Do not use this tool to install lug nuts on
wheels without a torque limiting device. Doing so
could result in galled or broken lugs.
IMPACT TIME
Many variables exist that will cause the available torque
of the fastener to vary considerably. The optimum impact
time is approximately 6 seconds.
NOTE: Using a universal joint or extension bar may
reduce the fastening force of the impact wrench and
require longer fastening time.
DRIVING OR REMOVING SCREWS
See Figures 5 - 6.
■ Place the rotation selector in the correct position for
the operation.
■ Hold the impact driver with one hand.
■ Place the bit on the screw head and slowly depress
the switch trigger. Start the bit slowly for more control.
■ As the screw is driven, impacting will begin.
