SOCKET INSTALLATION
Turn off the air compressor and disconnect the air hose when changing
sockets. After attaching the socket, attach the air hose and turn the air
compressor on.
The working torque of the impact wrench is 200 to 500 ft-lb. Make sure
that the nut or bolt you are using the tool to tighten can withstand the
rated torque and is rated for 8,000 RPM or greater. If available, check the
recommended torque specifications of the nut.
1. Select the appropriately sized 1/2 in. drive impact socket for
the job.
NOTE:
Only use impact sockets which are specifically designed for
use with an impact wrench. Do not use worn or damaged sockets.
2. Push and snap the socket (sold separately) onto the anvil.
OPERATION
WARNING! This tool generates considerable torque when in use. Always
hold the tool with both hands when using, and brace yourself to resist
the torque which will be delivered to the work piece.
1. Tighten the nut as far as you can by hand before using the
impact wrench.
2. Connect the impact wrench to the air hose.
3. Place the socket on the nut and grip the impact wrench tightly with
both hands. Press the trigger to start the tool.
NOTE:
If the tool stalls while tightening, do not raise the output
pressure of the air compressor above 90 PSI.
4. Set the reverse switch to forward, so that the anvil turns
clockwise (forward).
5. Place the socket over the fastener, grip the impact wrench firmly
with both hands and gently squeeze the trigger.
6. Turn the air regulator in the direction indicated by the arrow on the
regulator to increase the power. Turn the regulator in the opposite
direction to decrease the power.
