to play tools capacity, higher pressure will rapidly reduce tools life.
Always verify prior to using the tool that the air source has been adjusted to the rated air
pressure or within the rated air-pressure range.
2. Never use oxygen, carbon dioxide, combustible gases or any bottled gas as an air source
for the tool. Such gases are capable of explosion and serious injury to persons.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. The amount of actual torque may vary depending on the cleanness and condition of the
threads and other factors. If tightening critical components, check the actual torque applied
to the fastener with a mechanical torque wrench (not supplied).
2. The warnings and precautions discussed in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions
and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense
and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the
operator.
3. Only use with accessories rated to handle the forces exerted by this tool during operation.
Other accessories not designed for the forces generated may break and forcefully launch
pieces.
4. Attach all accessories properly to the tool before connecting the air supply. A loose
accessory may detach or break during operation.
5. Obey the manual for the air compressor used to power this tool.
6. Install an in-line shutoff valve to allow immediate control over the air supply in an emergency,
even if a hose is ruptured.
7. Use this tool with both hands only. Using tools with only one hand can result in loss of
control.
8. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
9. Do not hold sockets, anvil or adapters during use.
VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause
temporary or permanent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first be examined
by a doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to ensure medical problems are not
being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant women or people who have impaired blood
circulation to the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes, or Raynaud's
Disease should not use this tool. If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such as
tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek medical advice as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowest vibration when there is a choice.
5. Include vibration-free periods each day of work.
6. Grip tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it). Let the tool do the work.
7. To reduce vibration, maintain tool as explained in this manual. If abnormal vibration occurs,
