How to use

Fit a compatible Metabo 18 V battery into the tool according to the battery mounting guide. Select the appropriate socket that matches the fastener size and attach it to the square drive. Start the tool at low speed to engage the fastener, then apply controlled bursts or hold steady pressure while operating to achieve the required torque. Reverse the rotation setting to loosen fasteners. Follow normal safety procedures including eye protection and secure workpiece clamping.

Usage recommendations

For routine tasks, use batteries with sufficient capacity to maintain consistent power output during high-torque operations. Inspect sockets and fasteners for wear before use, and use appropriate impact-rated accessories. Operate the tool within its intended duty cycle to prevent overheating and consult Metabo documentation for maintenance intervals and service guidelines.
