accordance with EN 28662-2: 1994 results in the following vibration emission declared in accordance with BS
EN12096: 1996.
Measured vibration emission value: . . . . . . . . . . . 2.0m/sec²
Uncertainty: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .0.8m/s²
These values are suitable for comparison with emission levels of other tools that have been subject to
the same test.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is inadequately managed.
Recommended measures to reduce risk of hand-arm vibration syndrome:
This item represents a low Hand Arm Vibration risk to users. The calculated maximum usage period exceeds 8

PREPARING SCREWDRIVER FOR USE
3.1.
Air Supply
3.1.1. Ensure screwdriver air valve (or trigger) is in "off" position before connecting to air supply.
3.1.2. You will require an air pressure of 90psi, and an air flow according to specification.
3.1.3. WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating
the screwdriver. Too high an air pressure and unclean air will shorten the product life due to
excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury.
3.1.4. Drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the screwdriver.
3.1.5. Clean air inlet filter weekly. Recommended hook-up is shown in fig 1.
3.1.6. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8
metres). The minimum hose diameter should be 1/4" I.D. and fittings must have the same
inside dimensions.
3.1.7. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make certain
that all connections are secure.
3.2.
Couplings
3.2.1. Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to screwdriver.
To overcome this, connect a leader hose to the screwdriver. A quick change coupling may
then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. See fig 1 & 2.

WARNING! Disconnect screwdriver from air supply before changing accessories,
servicing or performing maintenance.
DO NOT allow screwdriver to free run for an extended period of time as this will shorten its
life.
4.1.
Push driver bit into self locking chuck (fig.3.A.) and ensure it is secure. To release bit, push
chuck collar (fig.3.B.) forward and pull bit out.
4.2.
Connect the screwdriver to the air hose as in Section 3.
4.3.
Check that the screwdriver is set to operate in the required direction. The screwdriver
direction is changed by switching the reverse lever (fig.3.C.) behind the trigger.
