LUBRICATION
1. It is important that the tool be properly lubricated. Without proper lubrication the tool will not work properly
and parts will wear prematurely. Avoid over-lubricating the tool.
2. Use the proper lubricant to lubricate parts only as necessary. Use only recommended lubricants. Substitutes
may harm the rubber compounds in the tool's O-rings and other rubber parts.
3. Lubricate before storing. 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.
WARNING! NEVER use WD-40 to clean or lubricate your air tool. WD-40 is a solvent that will break down the
internal grease and cause the air tool to seize up.
UNPACKING
1. Carefully remove the parts and accessories from the box.
2. Make sure that all items are included.
3. Inspect the parts carefully to make sure the tool was not damaged while shipping.
4. Do not discard the packaging material until you have carefully inspected and satisfactorily operated the tool.
WARNING! If any part is missing, do not operate the tool until the missing parts are replaced. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury.

OPERATION

WARNING! This tool generates considerable torque when in use. Always hold the tool with both hands when
using, and brace yourself to resist the torque which will be delivered to the work piece.
1. Tighten the nut as far as you can by hand before using the impact wrench.
2. Place the socket on the nut and grip the impact wrench tightly with both hands. Press the trigger to
start the tool.
3. Place the socket over the fastener, grip the impact wrench firmly with both hands and gently
squeeze the trigger.
4. When the fastener is tightened, release the trigger and remove the tool and socket.
5. Use a mechanical torque wrench to check fastener torque.
6. To loosen, set the reverse lever, so that the anvil turns counterclockwise (reverse).
