OPERATING THE WRENCH
1.
Fit the wrench with the correct size impact socket to suit the bolt to be tightened and retain with
ring and pin system.
2.
Rotate the handle to convenient position relative to the reaction arm.
3.
Fit the tool onto the bolt to be tightened / un-tightened with the reaction arm adjacent to the
reaction point (See “Torque Reaction” section).
4.
Move the direction selector switch (E) from the neutral position and into either forward or reverse
as required.
5.
Squeeze the soft start trigger (F) partially to bring the reaction arm into contact with the reaction
point.
6.
Fully press the soft start trigger (F) and keep pressed until the tool stalls (when tightening) or the
fastener is released (when un-tightening). If the trigger is released before the wrench stalls, full
torque will not be applied to the bolt. Once the air motor stalls do not “blip” the trigger, or
incorrect torque will be applied. Release the soft start trigger (F).
7.
In use this tool must be supported at all times in order to prevent unexpected release of a fastener
or component failure.
8.
If a fastener will not un-tighten when the tool is set to maximum on the calibration certificate, do
not “blip” the trigger repeatedly, use tooling of higher torque output.
9.
Remove tool from bolt.
