UNPACKING
1. Carefully remove the parts and accessories from the box.
2. Make sure that all items listed in the parts lists are included.
3. Inspect the parts carefully to make sure the tool was not damaged while shipping.

WARNING! If any part is missing, do not operate the tool until the missing parts are replaced. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury.
OPERATION
SOCKET INSTALLATION
Turn off the air compressor and disconnect the air hose when changing sockets. After attaching the socket, attach the
air hose and turn the air compressor on.
The working torque of the impact wrench is 1,500 ft-lb. Make sure that the nut or bolt you are using the tool to tighten
can withstand the rated torque and is rated for 5,000 RPM or greater. If available, check the recommended torque
specifications for the nut.
1. Select the appropriately sized 1" drive impact socket for the job. Push and snap the socket onto the anvil.
Only use impact sockets which are specifically designed for use with an impact wrench. Do not use worn or
damaged sockets.
2. Push and snap the socket (not included) onto the anvil.
OPERATION
WARNING! This tool generates considerable torque when in use. Always hold the tool with both hands when
using, and brace yourself to resist the torque which will be delivered to the work piece.
1. Tighten the nut as far as you can by hand before using the impact wrench.
2. Connect the wrench to the air hose.
3. Place the socket on the nut and grip the impact wrench tightly with both hands. Press the trigger to start the tool.
Note:
If the tool stalls while tightening, do not raise the outlet pressure of the air compressor above 90 PSI.
4. Set the reverse lever to the left, so that the anvil turns clockwise (forward.)
5. Place the socket over the fastener, grip the impact wrench firmly with both hands and gently squeeze
the trigger.
6. Turn the air regulator in the direction indicated by the H arrow on the regulator to increase the power. Turn it
toward the L arrow to decrease the power.
Note:
If the impact wrench does not tighten the fastener to your satisfaction, do not raise the air pressure on
the compressor over 90 PSI. Pressures above 90 PSI will strip the work piece and damage the tool, potentially
causing tool failure and serious injury. Use other appropriate methods and tools to tighten the nut.
7. When the fastener is tightened, release the trigger and remove the tool and socket.
8. Use a mechanical torque wrench to check fastener torque.
9. To loosen, set the reverse lever to the right, so that the anvil turns counterclockwise (reverse).
10. When finished with the tool, turn off the air compressor, disconnect the air hose and discharge any residual air
remaining in the tool. Put the impact wrench away in a safe storage area.
