Air Supply...
Tools of this class operate on a wide range
of air pressures. It is recommended that air
pressure of these tools measures 90 PSI at
the tool while running free. Higher pressure
(over 90 psig; 6.2 bar) raises performance
beyond the rated capacity of the tool which
will shorten the tool’s life because of faster
wear 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 the air
tank daily. Clean the air inlet filter screen
on at least a weekly schedule. The recom-
mended hookup procedure can be viewed
in the above figure.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply,
has standard 1/4" NPT . Line pressure
should be increased to compensate for
unusually long air hoses (over 25 feet).
Minimum hose diameter should be 3/8"
I.D. and fittings should have the same
inside dimensions and be tightly secured.
Operation...
This ratchet wrench is rated at 3/8" USS
bolt size. Rating must be down graded for
spring U bolts, tie bolts, long cap screws,
double depth nuts, badly rusted conditions
and spring fasteners as they absorb much
of the impact power. When possible, clamp
or wedge the bolt to prevent springback.
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 drastical-
ly reduce tool life.
The forward/reversing button is used to
change the rotation of the tool. When the
button is set to the right, the tool will turn
in a right hand rotation. When the button
is set to the left, the tool will turn in a left
hand rotation.
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 connection absorbs energy and
reduces power.
Matco Tools™ 1 Year Limited Warranty for Air Tools
Matco warrants its air tools for a period of 1 year to the consumer.
We will repair any air tool covered under this warranty which
proves to be defective in material or workmanship during the
warranty period. In order to have your tool repaired, return the tool
to any Matco Authorized Warranty Center, freight prepaid. Please
include a copy of your proof of purchase and a brief description
of the problem. The tool will be inspected and if any part or parts
are found to be defective in material or workmanship, they will be
repaired free of charge and the repaired tool will be returned to
you freight prepaid.
This warranty gives you specific rights. You may also have other
rights which vary from state to state.
The foregoing obligation is Matco's sole liability under this or any
implied warranty and under no circumstances shall Matco be liable
for any incidental or consequential damages.
Note: Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you.
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.
Lubrication...
Lubricate the air motor daily with quality
air tool oil. If no air line oiler is used, run
a teaspoon 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. The amount of oil
to be used is 1 ounce. Overfilling will cause
a reduction in the power of the tool.
