4. ALWAYS finish tightening with a torque wrench. The weight of the vehicle
will need to be placed on the wheel to prevent it from rotating while the
nuts are tightened. Ensure the final torque applied to the nuts meets the
vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.
DISCONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
1. Do not disconnect the air supply hose until the compressor has been shut
down and the compressed air pressure released.
2. Once the pressure has been released, disconnect the air supply hose from
the tool.
MAINTENANCE
DAILY
1. Before use, drain water from air reservoir, air line and compressor as
appropriate.
2. If no line lubricator is used, ensure that oil is applied to the tool on a daily
basis through the air inlet connection.
3. For lubricating the air motor, an air line lubricator should be used,
containing Clarke Air Line Oil, adjusted to 2 drops per minute. If this is not
possible, run a few drops of oil through the tool. It may be entered into
the tool air inlet, (ensuring the strainer is clear), or into the hose at the
nearest connection to the air supply. Then operate the tool.
Clarke Air Line Oil is available from your CLARKE dealer, part no. 3050825.
CLEANING
1. Keep the body of the tool clean and free from debris.
2. Grit or gum deposits in the tool may also reduce efficiency. This condition
can be corrected by cleaning the air strainer and flushing out the tool
with gum solvent oil, or failing this, the tool should be disassembled,
thoroughly cleaned, dried and reassembled.
3. After extensive use, remove the inlet screen filter and flush out the
mechanism with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE No10 oil and
paraffin. Allow to dry before use.
4. Clean the air inlet filter screen inside the hose adaptor.
5. If the tool runs erratically or becomes inefficient, and the air supply is of
good quality, it may be necessary to dismantle the air motor and hammer
mechanism and replace worn or damaged parts. You may prefer to take
the tool to your CLARKE dealer if internal maintenance is required.
Your Clarke Impact Wrench has been designed to give long and trouble free
service. If, however, having followed the instructions in this booklet carefully,
you encounter problems, take the unit to your local Clarke dealer.
