REPLACEABLE DRIVE SQUARE
All tools are fitted with either ¾" (19mm) or 1" (25.4mm) drive square that can easily be replaced.
TRIGGER
The trigger controls the flow of air. The more the trigger is pressed the more air flows into the tool. This
allows for slow positioning of socket and reaction plate. Once positioning is complete, the trigger must be
fully depressed for correct torque application.
CLOCKWISE / COUNTER-CLOCKWISE SELECTOR
Tools fitted with this option can be used for releasing bolts as well as tightening. The gearing inside the
housing is biased towards counter-clockwise drive to give a higher torque for releasing the fastener.
LIFTING BRACKET
The metal bracket can be used to suspend the tool from a balancer.
WARNING:
Make sure all air hoses are clean and free from dirt.
1. Connect the tool air inlet hose (C) to the outlet side of the pressure regulator unit (B), observing air flow
direction arrows. Use a ½" bore hose with a maximum length of 3m.
TIP. To connect the air inlet hose to a 1/2" bore hose use a ½" BSP Male/Male connector. A pair of
spanners will be required to perform this task (22mm (7/8") A/F and 24mm (15/16") A/F open-ended
spanners)
2. Connect the inlet side of the pressure regulator unit (B) to the mains air supply (A) using a minimum hose
size of ½" bore (12mm). Avoid using ½" bore hoses of longer than 5 meters from the supply to the
pressure regulator unit as this will reduce the performance of the tool.
