Warranty The j-Gun has a one year limited warranty. Every JETYD tool is tested before leaving the factory and is warranted to be free from defects in workmanship and materials. JETYD will repair or replace, without charge, any tool which upon examination proves to be defective in workmanship or materials for one (1) year after the date of purchase.
Do not expose the gun to high humidity or large temperature variations. Personal Protective Equipment Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment when operating a jGun including gloves, safety goggles, hearing protection, hard hat, and safety shoes JETYD Operations Manual...
Reaction Arm or Washer Choose the correct reaction arm for the job. The jGun is shipped with a standard length reaction arm, but your gun may have been ordered with a custom reaction arm for a specific purpose. JETYD Operations Manual...

Always install the reaction arm with the extension facing away from the gun. Failure to install the reaction arm correctly could result in the reaction arm coming in contact with your hand or other another part of your body, causing personal injury. JETYD Operations Manual...
Figure 4. Reaction Arm Installed Lock the reaction arm to the jGun by aligning the set-screw with the hole in the splined section and then tightening the set screw firmly. Figure 5. Tightening Reaction Arm Set Screw JETYD Operations Manual...
Place the appropriately sized socket onto the jGun barrel. Figure 6. Installing jGun Socket Install the socket locking pin and retaining ring. Figure 7. Installing Socket Locking Pin and Retaining Ring JETYD Operations Manual...
Failure to have the reaction arm in direct contact with an appropriate immovable object before beginning to tighten the fastener could result in loss of control of the tool and personal injury. Keep all body parts clear of the reaction arm and reaction arm contact point (immovable object). JETYD Operations Manual...

Ensure the jGun barrel is in a straight line with relation to the stud and that the socket is fully engaged onto the fastener. As the tool takes up the bolt load, the jGun may shift. JETYD Operations Manual...
401,400 lbs The Data Above is based on bolts lubricated to manufacturer's specifications. Due to a variation in friction, we recommend in extreme cases to check with the bolt manufacturer, as the chart represents a guideline only. JETYD Operations Manual...
Operating the jGun To operate the jGun: 1. Place the correct size impact socket on the square drive and secure it with the locking pin and ring. 2. Ensure that the square drive is fully engaged into the socket. JETYD Operations Manual...
For added safety, remain clear of the rear of the reaction arm during operation. Also, when initially applying the tool, pressurize the system momentarily; if the tool tends to ride up or creep, stop and readjust the reaction arm to a more solid and secure position. JETYD Operations Manual...
Maintaining Hoses and Fittings Visually inspect air lines and air line fittings before tool use Replace worn or leaking air lines Tighten leaky fittings JETYD Operations Manual...
3. Once the retaining ring is removed, the square drive can be pulled out. 4. If necessary, a screwdriver or other small bar can be placed through the hole in the square drive for leverage when removing the drive. JETYD Operations Manual...
2. Pour approximately one ounce of air tool oil, or spray a lubricant, into the hose coupling on the gun. 3. Reconnect the hose and operate the gun, while standing clear of the exhaust opening at the base of the handle. Excess lubricant will release from this opening upon initial operation. JETYD Operations Manual...
6. Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly. Calibration JETYD provides a pressure / torque conversion chart with every tool. The stated accuracy is +/- 5%. If you properly maintained your tool and keep it in good working condition, it will stay within this stated accuracy.
Physically, the dual speed gun is identical to the standard jGun with the exception of a handle which guides the shifting mechanism. Figure 13. Dual Speed jGun with Handle The handle shown above can be positioned on either side for right or left handed operation. JETYD Operations Manual...
Failure to fully engage tool may affect the operation of the tool and ultimately result in loss of control and/or damage to the tool. JETYD Operations Manual...
Operation with a Socket and Reaction Arm Read this section carefully before proceeding. The dual speed gun requires using a special reaction arm provided with the tool by the Jetyd Company. This arm includes: A snap fitting which secures the tool on the housing A stopper that prevents accidental mode shifting.
Install the LoaDisc socket driver assembly provided. Refer to the LoaDisc Reaction Washer Overview for any further questions about setup. Once the LoaDisc socket driver assembly is properly installed, place the jGun over the nut and LoaDisc and tighten until operator reaches the desired torque. JETYD Operations Manual...
The run-down and run-off Speed of the tool is not faster than that of an impact gun. Nevertheless, it takes getting used to. So, please take your time initially and use common sense. It won’t take long for you to feel at ease with your tool. JETYD Operations Manual...
Do not use the tool. Failure to follow correct tool usage could result in personal injury, co-worker injury, and/or damaged tools and equipment. Ensure that your working area is clean and unobstructed before beginning work. JETYD Operations Manual...
Open the air supply connected to the FRL unit and run the torque wrench while setting the pressure on the gauge. Set the air pressure to the PSI needed to achieve desired torque shown on the provided pressure/torque conversion chart. JETYD Operations Manual...

The LoaDisc Reaction Washer is the first reaction arm replacement device for torque wrenches and is exclusive to JETYD Corporation. The LoaDisc is a hex shaped washer that fits under a standard nut and is used in conjunction with a double-layered (concentric) socket. The double- layered socket turns the nut using the inner socket, and the gun reacts on the washer with the outer socket.
When not in use, properly store the LoaDisc drivers and any unused LoaDiscs. Personal Protective Equipment Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment when operating the FRL and jGun including gloves, safety goggles, hearing protection, hard hat, and safety shoes. JETYD Operations Manual...
All joint specifications (bolt size, material, gasket type, etc) must be provided or recorded by a trained JETYD Representative. Always use authentic JETYD accessories when installing the LoaDisc. Never use a substitute torque wrench or socket/driver. LoaDisc Setup and Use Proper setup and use of the LoaDisc reaction washer ensures accurate results and safe operation.
6. After all bolts on the joint have been prepped for installation following the above steps, tighten the nut using a JETYD LoaDisc socket/driver. 7. Align the set screw on the socket with the drilled section on the splines of the jGun.
