CAT3225/CAT3225G 

REV: 11/21/19

AIR SUPPLY

Tools operate on a wide range of air pressures. It is recommended 

that air pressure measures 90 psig at the tool with the trigger fully 

depressed and no load applied to the tool. Higher pressure (over 90 

psig; 6.2 bar) raises performance beyond the rated capacity of the 

tool, which will shorten tool life and could cause injury.
Always use clean, dry air. Dust, corrosive fumes and/or water in the 

air line will cause damage to the tool. Drain water from air lines 

and compressor prior to running tool. Clean the air inlet filter screen 

weekly. The recommended hookup procedure can be viewed in the 

above figure.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply has standard 3/8" NPT. 

Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long 

air hoses (over 25 feet). Minimum hose diameter should be 1/2" I.D. 

and fittings should have the same inside dimensions and be tightly 

secured. 
Ensure an accessible emergency shut off valve has been installed in 

the air supply line and make others aware of its location.

LUBRICATION

Lubricate the air motor daily with high quality air tool oil. If no air 

line oiler is used, run 1/2 oz. of oil through the tool. The oil can 

be squirted into the tool air inlet or into the hose at the nearest 

connection to the air supply, then run the tool. A rust inhibitive oil is 

acceptable for air tools.

WARNING:

 After an air tool has been lubricated, oil will discharge 

through the exhaust port during the first few seconds of operation. 

The exhaust port must be covered with a towel before applying air 

pressure to prevent serious injury.

OPERATION

This tool is an impacting tool and not a torque meter.  When specific 

torque is required, it must be checked with a torque meter after  

fitting the fastener with the impact. This impact wrench is rated 

at 3/4" SAE bolt size. Rating must be downgraded for spring  

U bolts, tie bolts, long cap screws, double depth nuts, badly rusted  

conditions and spring fastener, as they absorb much of the impact 

power. When possible, clamp or wedge the bolt to prevent spring 

back.
Soak rusted nuts in penetrating oil and break rust seal before 

removing with impact wrench.  If nut does not start to move in three 

to five seconds, use a larger size impact wrench.  Do not use impact 

wrench beyond rated capacity as this will drastically reduce tool life.
The reversing valve is used to change the direction of the tool.  

When the valve is out, the tool is in forward or right hand direction. 

When the valve is pushed in, the tool is in reverse or left hand 

direction.

NOTE:  Always turn off the air supply, drain hose of air pressure 

and detach tool from air supply before installing, removing or 

adjusting any accessory on this tool, or before performing any 

maintenance on this tool.
NOTE:

 Actual torque on a fastener is directly related to joint  

hardness, tool speed, condition of socket and the time the tool is 

allowed to impact.  Use the simplest possible tool to socket hook up.  

Every condition absorbs energy and reduces power.

NOTE:  During operation, safety goggles must always be worn 

to guard against flying debris (users and bystanders).

TROUBLESHOOTING

Other factors outside the tool may cause loss of power or erratic action. 

Reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the air line, moisture or 

restrictions in air pipes or the use of hose connections of improper size or 

poor conditions may reduce air supply. Grit or gum deposits in the tool may 

cut power and may be corrected by cleaning the air strainer and flushing  

out the tool with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE #10 and  

kerosene. If outside conditions are in order, disconnect tool from hose and 

take tool to your nearest authorized service center.
