Impact Wrench - Owner's Manual
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
WARNING: Know your impact wrench. Do not plug the tool into the
power source until you have read and understand this Instruction Manual.
Learn the tool’s applications and limitations, as well as the specific potential
hazards related to this tool.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock, fire, or serious injury.
Always wear eye protection. Any power tool can
throw foreign objects into your eyes and cause
permanent eye damage. ALWAYS wear safety
goggles (not glasses) that comply with ANSI safety standard Z87.1. Everyday
glasses have only impact resistant lenses. They ARE NOT safety glasses.
WARNING:
Glasses or goggles not in compliance with ANSI Z87.1 could cause
serious injury when they break.
Always use hearing protection when operating the impact wrench.
Use only impact sockets and accessories that are designed for use with a impact
wrench. Do not use chrome plated sockets and accessories. Chrome plated
sockets and accessories are designed for hand use only and MUST NOT be used
with a impact wrench. They may shatter and possibly cause serious injury.
Before each use, check the impact sockets and accessories for excessive wear
or cracks. Worn or damaged sockets or accessories may shatter and possibly
cause serious injury. Worn accessories may allow the socket to come off during
operation of the impact wrench.
WARNING:
Always use a torque wrench to verify the torque being delivered.
This will prevent over or under tightened fasteners.
Keep the impact wrench handle and body clean and free of oil and grease. Always
use a clean dry cloth when cleaning. Do not use solvents, brake fluid, gasoline or
other petroleum products to clean the tool. They will damage the tool.
Do not wear neckties or loose clothing.
When wearing gloves, they must be tight fitting and slip resistant type. Leather
gloves offer the best protection.
Always use two hands when operating the impact wrench. Use one hand on
the handle and the other on the front of the tool body.
Never place your hand so it is touching the socket or accessory when the tool
is turned ON. Your hand could be seriously injured.
