Operation (continued)

Note: Turn off your air compressor and disconnect the air hose when you are changing sockets. After you attach the socket, attach the air hose and turn the air compressor on.

5.Select the appropriate size 1/2” socket for your needs.

6.Push and snap the socket (not included) onto the Anvil (#43).

Tightening

Note: Push Forward/Reverse Valve #9 to the left for clockwise rotation, push to the right for counterclockwise rotation. This is a sliding valve that is combined with Air Regulator lever (#13).

8.Tighten the nut as tight as you can by hand.

9.Place the socket (not included) over the nut you wish to tighten.

10.Grip the Impact Wrench firmly with two hands and gently squeeze the Trigger (#8).

Note: Fine tune the air flow with the Air Regulator (#13) knob by adjusting it from positions

1through 6. One allows the lowest amount of air flow, and six the highest.

Note: If the Impact Wrench cannot tighten the nut to your satisfaction, do not raise the air pressure on the compressor over 90 PSI. Air pressure above 90 PSI will strip the workpiece and damage the tool. Use other appropriate methods and tools to tighten the nut.

11.When the nut is tightened, release the Trigger (#8). Turn off the air compressor and disconnect the hose.

12.If available, check the recommended torque specification for the nut. Use a torque wrench to tighten the nut to the proper setting after using the Impact Wrench.

Loosening

Note: Push Forward/Reverse Valve (#9) to the right for counterclockwise rotation.

13.Place the socket (not included) over the nut you wish to loosen.

14.Grip the Impact Wrench firmly with two hands and gently squeeze the Trigger (#8).

Note: If the Impact Wrench cannot loosen the nut, do not raise the air pressure on the compressor over 90 PSI. Do not attempt to loosen the nut with the Impact Wrench. Use other appropriate methods and tools to loosen the nut.

15.When the nut is loosened, release the Trigger (#8). Turn off the air compressor and disconnect the hose.

16.If needed, remove the nut from the socket.

Maintenance

1.Make sure your Impact Wrench is disconnected from the air hose before attempting any maintenance.

2.If you are not using an automatic oiler system, put a few drops of pneumatic tool oil through the air line before and after each use. During use, add a few drops every hour.

3.Apply a few drops of oil to the Throttle Valve Pin (#6) before each use.

4.Wipe the Impact Wrench down with a lint free cloth after each use.

5.Make sure the Anvil (#43) is clear of dirt or debris. If possible, spray it with compressed air before each use.
