LOOSENING A WHEEL NUT/BOLT
1. Remove any wheel trim, before selecting the appropriate socket and
placing firmly on the square drive of the wrench.
2. With the control switch in the REVERSE running position (anti-clockwise) and
holding the wrench firmly in BOTH HANDS, squeeze the trigger. The nut will
be impacted repeatedly until it is loosened.
IMPORTANT!
Release the trigger
as soon as the nut or bolt begins to loosen.
3. Jack up the vehicle according to the vehicles handbook so that the wheel
is clear of the ground, then fully undo the wheel nuts/bolts.
4. Soak rusted nuts in penetrating oil, and break any rust seal before twisting
off with the wrench.
TIGHTENING A NUT/BOLT
1. Start the nut/bolt by hand, ensuring it is not cross threaded, then with the
appropriate socket installed on the wrench, place it on the nut./bolt.
2. With the selector switch in the clockwise (forward running) position and
holding the wrench firmly in BOTH HANDS, pull the trigger.
3. Run each nut/bolt up in turn until it is ‘nipped’ up only - do not tighten.
When all nuts/bolts are nipped up, tighten progressively by pulling the
trigger fully and allowing the action to operate briefly to prevent
overtightening.
4. ALWAYS finish tightening with a torque wrench. The weight of the vehicle
will need to be placed on the wheel to prevent it from rotating while the
nuts are tightened. Ensure the final torque applied to the nuts/bolts meets
the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.

DISCONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
1. DO NOT disconnect the air hose until the supply is isolated at a shut-off
valve.
2. Once the pressure has been isolated, disconnect the air supply hose from
the wrench.
3. Shut down the compressor at the end of the work session.
WARNING: ENSURE THAT THE CORRECT SOCKET IS BEING USED FOR THE
NUTS ON YOUR PARTICULAR VEHICLE. USING AN INCORRECT SOCKET
SIZE IS LIKELY TO DAMAGE THE HEADS OF THE BOLTS/NUTS.
