A reducer appropriately selects from three or more variable speeds to match multiple operational modes. An impact driver includes a motor, a reducer that reduces rotation from the motor to select from three or more variable speeds, a plurality of actuators to be actuated by the rotation reduced by the reducer, and a switcher that selects, from the plurality of actuators, a specific actuator to be actuated in a predetermined operational mode. The switcher causes the reducer to cooperate with the selected specific actuator and actuates the reducer at a predetermined variable speed of the three of more variable speeds corresponding to the predetermined operational mode of the selected specific actuator.

An impact drill includes an output shaft capable of rotating around a first axis and moving along the first axis, a housing, a first impact block fixedly connected to the output shaft, a second impact block, a stopping element for stopping the output shaft from moving backward, and a movable element mounted on the housing. The housing is formed with a through hole for accommodating the movable element. The through hole passes through the housing in a first line and the movable element is capable of moving to a first position and a second position along the first line. When the movable element moves to the first position, the movable element prevents the output shaft from moving backward. When the movable element moves to the second position, the movable element allows the output shaft to move backward.
