Loosening
Step 1: Verify that the power level is correct for your needs and that the REVERSE VALVE
(#42) has been shifted (pressed) completely to the right. If not, refer to Steps 5 through
9 under Use before proceeding.
Step 2: Place your work in as clear a location as possible. Make sure the air hose will reach as
far as needed without stressing any connections.
Step 3: With the correct socket attached to the Impact Wrench, slide the socket over the nut or
bolt.
Step 4: Grip the Impact Wrench with both hands, especially with higher power settings. Make
sure you are in a stable position and spread your feet shoulder-width apart.
Step 5: Press the TRIGGER (#31) to loosen the bolt.
Step 6: If the bolt will not loosen, and you are on a low power setting for Loosening, try
increasing the power setting and attempt again.
Step 7: If the bolt will not loosen with the Impact Wrench on a higher power setting, do not
repeat attempts to loosen. You may snap the bolt or strip the threads of the stud or nut.
Try another method to loosen the bolt or nut.
WARNING
!
The Impact Wrench May Kick Back During Operation. If This Happens,
Release
the TRIGGER IMMEDIATELY!
Tightening
Step 1: Verify that the power level is correct for your needs and that the REVERSE VALVE
(#42) has been shifted (pressed) completely to the left. If not, refer to Steps 5 through 9
under Use before proceeding.
Step 2: Place your work in as clear a location as possible. Make sure the air hose will reach as
far as needed without stressing any connections.
Step 3: Thread the nut or bolt on as far as possible by hand. This is to prevent cross-threading.
Step 4: If you have torque specs for the nut or bolt you are working on, refer to them. If a low
torque setting is given, it is recommended that you use a socket wrench or a manual
torque wrench to tighten as the Impact Wrench may provide too much torque, even in
the lowest power setting.
Step 5: Place the socket onto the nut or bolt.
Step 6: Grip the Impact Wrench with both hands, especially with higher power settings. Make
sure you are in a stable position and spread your feet shoulder-width apart.
Step 7: Press the TRIGGER to tighten the bolt.
Step 8: When the bolt is tight, release the TRIGGER. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN!
