Projectile hazards
• Even small projectiles can injure eyes and lead to blindness.
• Always wear impact-resistant eye and face protection when involved with or near the operation, repair or
maintenance of the tool or changing accessories on the tool.
• Do not use hand sockets with impact wrenches. Avoid the use of sockets with excessive wear to the input and
output drives. Check that the square and any other type of drive of the impact wrench is not cracked or excessively
worn before fitting or changing sockets, extensions, etc. Ensure that the socket is firmly fixed to the tool.

be thrown off the tool.
