| (54) | Impact rotation tool |
| (57) An impact rotation tool (1) includes a switching shaft (73) (73), which extends through
a drive shaft (6), and a coupling member (72), which is coupled to the switching shaft
(73). The switching shaft (73) moves the coupling member (72) to a position where
the coupling member (72) is engaged with the wall of only the drive shaft hole (54)
to switch the impact rotation tool (1) to an impact mode. The switching shaft (73)
moves the coupling member (72) to a position where the coupling member (72) is engaged
with the walls of both of the drive shaft hole (54) to switch the impact rotation
tool (1) to a drill mode. The wall of the drive shaft hole (54) includes an engagement
portion (75), which is engaged with the coupling member (72) in the impact mode, and
a relief (76), which does not contact the outer circumferential surface of the coupling
member (72) in the impact mode.
