6. In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for an extended period of time (overnight,
weekend, etc.), it should receive a generous amount of lubrication at that time. The tool should be run for
approximately 30 seconds to ensure oil has been evenly distributed throughout the tool. The tool should be
stored in a clean and dry environment.
WARNING! NEVER use WD-40 to clean or lubricate your air tool. WD-40 is a solvent that will break down the
internal grease and cause the air tool to seize up.
UNPACKING
1. Carefully remove the parts and accessories from the box.
2. Make sure that all items listed in the parts lists are included.
3. Inspect the parts carefully to make sure the tool was not damaged while shipping.
4. Do not discard the packaging material until you have carefully inspected and satisfactorily operated the tool.
WARNING! If any part is missing, do not operate the tool until the missing parts are replaced. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury.
OPERATION
WARNING! This tool generates considerable torque when in use. Always hold the tool with both hands when
using, and brace yourself to resist the torque which will be delivered to the work piece.
1. Tighten the nut as far as you can by hand before using the impact wrench.
2. Connect the wrench to the air hose.
3. Place the socket on the nut and grip the impact wrench tightly with both hands. Press the trigger to start
the tool.
Note: If the tool stalls while tightening, do not raise the outlet pressure of the air compressor above 90 PSI.
4. Set the reverse lever to the left, so that the anvil turns clockwise (forward.)
5. Place the socket over the fastener, grip the impact wrench firmly with both hands and gently squeeze
the trigger.
6. Turn the air regulator in the direction indicated by the H arrow on the regulator to increase the power.
Turn it toward the L arrow to decrease the power.
Note: If the impact wrench does not tighten the fastener to your satisfaction, do not raise the air pressure
on the compressor over 90 PSI. Pressures above 90 PSI will strip the work piece and damage the tool,
potentially causing tool failure and serious injury. Use other appropriate methods and tools to tighten
the nut.
7. When the fastener is tightened, release the trigger and remove the tool and socket.
8. Use a mechanical torque wrench to check fastener torque.
9. To loosen, set the reverse lever to the right, so that the anvil turns counterclockwise (reverse).
10. When finished with the tool, turn off the air compressor, disconnect the air hose and discharge any residual
air remaining in the tool. Put the impact wrench away in a safe storage area.
