▪ Keep air hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check air hose for wear before
each use and ensure that all connections are secure.
▪ Only use impact sockets which are specifically designed for use with an impact
wrench.
▪ Wear approved safety eye/face shield, ear defenders, and hand protection.
▪ WARNING! Due to the possible presence of asbestos dust from brake linings, when
working around vehicle brake systems we recommend you wear suitable respiratory
protection.
▪ Maintain correct balance and footing. Ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-
slip shoes.
▪ Keep children and non essential persons away from the working area.
▪ DO NOT use the wrench for a task it is not designed to perform.
▪ DO NOT use wrench if damaged or thought to be faulty.
▪ DO NOT use wrench unless you have been instructed in its use by a qualified
person.
▪ DO NOT carry the wrench by the air hose at yourself or others.
▪ DO NOT direct air from the air hose at yourself or others.
▪ When not in use disconnect from air supply and store in a safe, dry, childproof
location.
5 AIR SUPPLY
▪ Ensure wrench air valve (or trigger) is in the “off” position before connecting to the air
supply.
▪ It will require air pressure of 90psi, and air flow according to specification.
▪ WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating
the wrench. Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due
to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage or personal injury.
▪ Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the wrench.
▪ Clean air inlet filter weekly.
▪ Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over
8 meters). The hose diameter should be 3/8” I.D.
▪ Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make
certain that all connections are secure.
6 LUBRICATION
An automatic in-line filter-regulator-lubricator is recommended (Fig 1) as it increases tool life
and keeps the tool in sustained operation. The in-line lubricator should be regularly checked
and filled with air tool oil.
Proper adjustment of the in-line lubricator is performed by placing a sheet of paper next to
the exhaust ports and holding the throttle open approximately 30 seconds. The lubricator is
properly set when a light stain of oil collects on the paper. Excessive amounts of oil should
be avoided.
In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for an extended period of time
(overnight, weekend, etc.), it should receive a generous amount of lubrication at that time.
The tool should be run for approximately 30 seconds to ensure oil has been evenly
distributed throughout the tool. The tool should be stored in a clean and dry environment.
▪ It is most important that the tool be properly lubricated by keeping the air line
lubricator filled and correctly adjusted. Without proper lubrication the tool will not work
properly and parts will wear prematurely.
