AIR SOURCE
Clean and dry air and a correct air pressure is recommended as air supply for this air tool.
Maximum of 90 PSI at the air tool is recommended for most air tools of this class. Check specifications
section for recommended pressure. (Depending on length of air hose and other circumstances, air
pressure at compressor may need to be increased to 100 PSI to ensure 90 PSI at the tool. Water in the air
hose and compressor tank contributes to reduced performance and damage of the air tool. Drain the air
tank and filters before each use and as necessary to keep the air supply dry. Hose length over 25” causes
loss in line pressure. Increase hose ID or increase compressor pressure to compensate the pressure loss
.
Use an in-line pressure regulator with gauge if air inlet pressure is critical.

OPERATION
1. To set the tool to desired torque, select a nut or screw of known tightness of the same size, thread
pitch and thread condition as those on the job.
2. Turn air regulator to low position, apply wrench to nut and gradually increase power (turn regulator
to admit more air) until nut moves slightly in the direction it was originally set. The tool is now set
to duplicate that tightness
.
3. Do not tighten nuts or screws with higher torque than allowed. Put nut or screw in the thread and
start attach several revolutions by hand. With the impact wrench tighten the screw until it rests
flush against the supporting surface.
All bolts must always be checked with a torque wrench after installation.
