Maintenance; Operation - Craftsman 315.ID2000 Operator's Manual

NOTE: The impact wrench will not run unless the direction
of rotation selector is pushed fully to the left or right.
Avoid running the impact wrench at low speeds for
extended periods of time. Running at low speeds un-
der constant usage may cause the product to become
overheated. If this occurs, cool the product by running it
without a load and at full speed.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING SOCKETS
See Figure 4, page i.
Use only sockets designed for impact wrenches. Always
select the correct size impact socket for nuts and bolts.
CAUTION:
Using the wrong size socket may dam-
age the nut or bolt and cause the fastening torque to
be inaccurate or inconsistent.
 Remove the battery pack from the tool.
 Push the socket onto the anvil until it clicks into place.
 To remove the socket, pull it away from the anvil.
OPERATING THE IMPACT WRENCH
See Figure 5, page i.
Proper fastening torque may be determined by the kind
of bolt, the size of the bolt, the material, or the workpiece.
It is helpful to perform a test operation to determine the
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical
Craftsman replacement parts. Use of any other part
could create a hazard or cause product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side
shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to
do so could result in objects being thrown into your
eyes, resulting in possible serious injury.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury,
always remove the battery pack from the tool when
cleaning, performing any maintenance, or when
storing the tool.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.
Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

OPERATION

proper fastening time for the nut or bolt you are using.
While performing the test, make note of the speed
selection.
 Slide the socket over the nut or bolt.
 Depress the switch and fasten for the proper fastening
time.
 Remove the impact wrench from the nut or bolt.
 Check the torque with a torque wrench.
CAUTION:
on wheels without a torque limiting device. Doing so
could result in galled or broken lugs.
IMPACT TIME
Many variables exist that will cause the available torque of
the fastener to vary considerably.
NOTE: Using a universal joint or extension bar may re-
duce the fastening force of the impact wrench and require
longer fastening time.
CAUTION:
seated, additional impacting will increase the chance
of shearing bolts, nuts, sockets or tearing into wood.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:
gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating
oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts.
Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic
which may result in serious personal injury.
Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be
repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts
should be replaced at a Sears Service Center.

FOR RECYCLING
WARNING:
terminals with heavy-duty adhesive tape. Do not
attempt to destroy or disassemble battery pack or
remove any of its components. Lithium-ion and nick-
el-cadmium batteries must be recycled or disposed
of properly. Also, never touch both terminals with
metal objects and/or body parts as short circuit may
result. Keep away from children. Failure to comply
with these warnings could result in fire and/or seri-
ous injury.
