UNPACKING :

If any parts are missing or broken, please contact the store where it is being purchased.

Note that this 12-volt Impact Wrench operates differently than 115 volt or air impact wrenches. The motor will run to build inertia, and then will strike a blow of the hammer. This is repeated, becoming more rapid with decreased resistance. This is normal operation for this product.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS :

NOTE :

1.Make sure the vehicle is parked safely away from all other moving

traffic. Park the vehicle on a dry, flat, level, ground surface. Turn off the vehicle, and set the vehicle’s emergency brake.

2.Select the appropriate size Socket with which to remove the Lug Nuts on the vehicle’s wheel. Then, attach the Socket to the Impact Wrench.

If the vehicle’s cigarette lighter fuse is below 15 amps, you will need to use the vehicle’s battery as an electric power source, using the Battery Clamps. To do so attach the Red positive (+) Clamp to the positive (+) terminal on the vehicle’s battery. Then, attach the Black negative (-) Clamp to the negative (-) terminal on the vehicle’s battery then connect the Lead Wire Plug to the Battery Clamps.

4.If the vehicle’s cigarette lighter fuse is above 15 amps, you may use the vehicle’s cigarette lighter receptacle as an electric power source. To do so, remove the cigarette lighter and insert the Lead Wire Plug firmly into the cigarette lighter receptacle.
