IMPACT WRENCH SAFETY
1.Work Environment. Do not operate the tool in wet or
damp conditions; doing so significantly increases the
risk of electrical shock. Do not operate the tool in the
presence of flammable liquids or gases.
2. Personal Safety . Always wear ANSI Z87.1-approved
glasses, hearing protection and dust mask when using
the wrench. Tie back long hair. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewelry as they might get drawn in by the tool.
3. Preventing Electric Shock. Only hold the tool by in-
sulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
in case the drive contacts hidden wiring. Contacting a
“live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Make sure to keep the drive bit away from any power
cables, extension cords or wiring during operation.
4. Tool Inspection. Before operation, check the tool for
any damage or missing parts. Do not use the tool if any
part is missing or damaged. Make sure all adjustments
are correct and all connections are tight.
5. Standing Position. Always be sure you have a firm
footing. When operating the tool from an elevated posi-
tion, be aware of people or things beneath you.
6. Securing the Workpiece.
Secure loose workpieces
using vises or clamps to prevent wobble, damage to the
workpiece, and personal injury.
7. During Operation.
To prevent injury, use both hands
to operate the impact wrench, placing one hand on the
handle and the other hand on the housing. Keep your
hands, hair and other beloved body parts away from the
rotating components of the tool.
8. Turning off the Tool. Turn off the tool, and remove the
battery pack. Do not lay the tool down until it has come
to a complete stop. Do not touch the bit or the workpiece
immediately after operation. They may be extremely hot
and could burn your skin.
9. Making Adjustments.
Always turn off and remove
the battery pack from the impact wrench before making
adjustments or changing attachments. Accidental start-
ups may occur if the battery pack is installed during ad-
justment or maintenance.
10. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the fastener may
contact hidden wiring.
Fasteners contacting a “live”
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
