Operating Instructions
After an air tool
WARNING
!
has been lubri-
cated, oil will discharge through the
exhaust port during the first few
seconds of operation. Thus, the ex-
haust port must be covered with a
towel before applying air pressure.
Failure to cover the exhaust port can
result in serious injury.
Connect the air tool to the air supply
and cover the exhaust port with a
towel. Run the air tool for 7 to 10
seconds. Oil will discharge from the
exhaust port when air pressure is
applied.
The ratchet should never be used to set
the torque. Use a torque wrench to set
the torque.
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
When tightening,
WARNING
!
do not torque
down the nuts or bolts with the ratchet
as typically done with a hand wrench.
This can damage the tool by breaking
parts in the ratchet mechanism.
AIR TOOL SETUP
To remove nuts, turn the
forward/reverse dial to the right. To
install nuts, turn the forward/reverse
dial to the left. Reverse the procedure
if the threads are left-handed. Do not
overtighten the nuts.
NOTE: It is not recommended to install
a quick coupler between the air tool
and the leader (whip) hose.
Use of a whip hose
WARNING
!
prevents
accidental triggering of the tool when
pressurized air is connected to the
system.
In addition, the tool's vibration wears
out quick couplers prematurely.
Using fittings or air hoses which are too
small can create a pressure drop and
reduce the power of the tool. A 3/8"
(I.D.) fitting with 1/4" NPT threads is
recommended. Most compressors are
shipped with a short, 1/4" I.D. hose. For
proper performance and more conven-
ience, use a 3/8" I.D. hose. Hoses longer
than 50 feet should have a 1/2" I.D.

Never carry a tool
WARNING
!
by the hose or pull
the hose to move the tool or a
compressor. Keep hoses away from
heat, oil and sharp edges. Replace any
hose that is damaged, weak or worn.
STORAGE
The air tool must be lubricated before
storing. Follow the air piston
lubrication instructions with an
exception to step 4. Only run the air
tool for 2 to 3 seconds instead of 7 to
10 seconds because more oil needs to
remain in the air tool when storing.
