Installing the Socket
Caution: When removing the socket or bit from the tool, avoid contact with skin and use
proper protective gloves when grasping the socket, bit or accessory. Accessories may be hot
after prolonged use.
When installing a socket, align the holes in the side of the socket with the dent pin. Press the
socket until the dent pin engages in the hole.
To remove the socket, pull the socket off the driveshaft.
Removing Lug Nuts
Warning! Do not go underneath your vehicle without jack stands. Jacks are not designed to
maintain heavy loads for long periods of time.
1.
Park vehicle in a safe outside location away from moving traffic. Always set the vehicle
parking brake and block the wheels so the vehicle will not move while the impact

accessory socket.
3.
Pick an impact socket that will fit the wheel lug nut. Press the socket onto the
driveshaft. Never use sockets that are not specifically designed for use with impact
wrenches.
4.
Place a jack under the jacking point for the wheel to be removed and raise the vehicle.

Support the vehicle by placing jack stands at locations recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer.
6.
Set the directional lever to “REV” and carefully loosen the lug nuts. Remove in the
order recommended by the manufacturer.

If the impact wrench cannot loosen the lug nut, use a breaker bar (not included) to
break the nut loose before trying again.

Remove the wheel.
