COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the wrench is to be used during cold weather, preheat the hydraulic fluid at low engine speed. When using the normally recommended fluids, fluid temperature should be at or above 50 °F/10 °C (400 ssu/82 centistokes) be- fore use.
Damage to the hydraulic system or wrench can result from use with fluid that is too viscous or too thick.

The wrench impact mechanism must be cleaned and greased with waterproof grease after every day of use. The main housing valve and motor are sealed and do not require maintenance unless they are malfunctioning.
Remove, clean, grease and assemble the impact mech- anism as described in the IW24 Service Manual.
