Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a driver unit, a handle unit, and a handle extension. The handle unit is selectively and removably attachable to the driver unit. The handle extension has a first end and a second end, the handle extension being selectively and removably attachable to the driver unit at the first end, and being selectively and removably attachable to the handle unit at the second end. The powered fastener driver is adjustable between a first configuration in which the handle unit is directly attached to the driver unit, and a second configuration in which the driver unit is attached to the handle extension at the first end, and the handle unit is attached to the handle extension at the second end.

Abstract: A zero-gravity hoist system including a chain fall, a motor coupled to the chain fall and configured to drive the chain fall in one or more directions, a power supply configured to provide power to the motor, and a controller having one or more electronic processors. The one or more electronic processors are configured to measure a first force of a load in response to receiving an input, store the measured first force in a memory of the controller, measure a second force of the load, determine a difference between the second measured force and the first measured force, and adjust a height of the load based on determining that the second force differs from the first force by a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A charging module is configured to be removably coupled to a mobile work cart. The charging module includes a housing having a first end, a second end, a front side, and a rear side. The housing defines a cavity in the front side and includes a charging bay located within the cavity. The charging bay is configured to removably receive a battery pack to electrically connect the battery pack to the charging module. The charging module also includes a clamp coupled to the rear side of the housing. The clamp includes a handle portion and an arm. The clamp is movable relative to the housing between a deployed position and a retracted position. The clamp is biased toward the retracted position. The housing defines a recess in the rear side. When the clamp is in the retracted position the arm is received within the recess.
