Installation

1 Cleaning the air hose

□ A 3/8" air hose is required, with a maximum length of 25 ft .

□ Clean the air hose of accumulated dust and moisture before connecting it to the air supply .

NOTE: If a longer air hose is required, connect a 1/2" air hose to the 3/8" air hose to ensure the impact wrench has the necessary air supply .

2 Connecting to the air supply

□ Always use clean dry air . Excessive moisture and dirt will greatly reduce the life of any air motor . We recommend the installation of an in-line filter-regulator-lubricator as close to the tool as possible .

□ Ensure all hoses and fittings are the correct size and secured tightly .

Operation

1 Operating the impact

□ This 1/2" impact wrench is designed to operate on 90 PSIG . Lower pressure (below 90 PSIG) will reduce performance of the tool . Higher air pressure (over 90 PSIG) raises the performance of the tool beyond its rated capacity and could cause serious damage to tool and user .

2 Changing output torque direction

□ This tool features the reverse switch to change the output torque direction to tighten (assemble) or loosen (disassemble) the bolt or fastener .

□ Control the output torque direction by pushing the reverse switch button to the F (Forward) or R (Reverse) position to change the direction .

3 Changing the output torque level

□ This tool features the air regulator to manage the output power;

□ Press the air regulator in, then adjust to your desirable torque level .

□ 1 means minimum torque and 4 means the full power;

4 Installing and removing the impact sockets

WARNING: Disconnect tool from air supply before servicing or changing accessories . Always use sockets rated for impact wrenches .

□ Disconnect the tool from the air source

□ Select the suitable and desirable socket size

□ Press fit the anvil into the socket;

□ To remove the impact socket;

□ Disconnect the tool from the air source;

□ Use the hand or suitable tool to remove the socket;

Operation

5 Tightening or loosening bolt or fastener

WARNING: Once a bolt or fastener is seated, impacting for longer than five (5) seconds will cause excessive wear and possible damage to the impact mechanism . If it takes longer to tighten or loosen your bolt or fastener, we recommend the use of a larger sized impact wrench .

□ Fit the impact socket

□ Hold the impact wrench with one hand;

□ Ensure that the operator is aware of the torque direction to tighten (Forward) or loosen (Reverse) and has selected the suitable torque level

□ Use the tool to tighten or loosen the bolt or fastener .

MaintenanceEnsure the air line is shut-off and drained of air before removing this tool for service or changing sockets . This will prevent the tool from operating if the throttle is accidentally engaged .

LUBRICATION □ An in-line filter-regulator-lubricator is recommended as it increases tool life and keeps the tool in

sustained operation .

□ Regularly check and fill the in-line lubricator with air tool oil . Avoid using excessive amounts of oil .

□ Adjust the in-line lubricator by placing a sheet of paper next to the tool’s exhaust ports and holding the throttle open approximately 30 seconds . The lubricator is properly set when a light stain of oil collects on the paper .

□ If it is necessary to store the tool for an extended period of time (overnight, weekend, etc), generously lubricate the tool through the air inlet . Run the tool for approximately 30 seconds to ensure the oil is evenly distributed throughout the tool . Store the tool in a clean and dry environment .

□ Recommended lubricants: Air tool oil or any other high grade turbine oil containing moisture absorbent, rust inhibitors, metal wetting agents, and an EP (extreme pressure) additive .

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause Solution

The tool runs slowly or will not operate .

There is grit or gum in the tool . Flush the tool with air tool oil or gum solvent .

The tool is out of oil . Lubricate the tool according to the lubrication instructions in this manual .

The air pressure is low . □ Adjust the regulator on the tool to the maximum setting .

□ Adjust the compressor regulator to the tool’s maximum setting of 90 psi .

The air hose leaks . Tighten and seal the hose fittings with pipe thread tape if leaks are found .

The air pressure drops . □ Ensure the hose is the proper size . Long hoses or tools using large volumes of air may require a hose with an I .D . of ½" or larger depending on the total length of the hose .

□ Do not use a multiple number of hoses connected together with a quick connect fitting . This causes additional pressure drops and reduces the tool power . Directly connect the hoses together .

There is a worn rotor blade in the motor . Replace the rotor blade .

There is a worn ball bearing in the motor . Remove and inspect the bearing for rust, dirt, and grit . Replace or clean and grease the bearing with bearing grease .

There is moisture blowing out of the tool’s exhaust .

There is water in the tank . Drain the tank . (See the air compressor manual for instructions .) Lubricate the tool and run it until water is not evident . Lubricate the tool again and run for 1-2 seconds .

The tool impacts slowly or not at all .

The tool needs lubricating . Lubricate the air motor and the impact mechanism according to the lubrication instructions in this manual .

The tool regulator setting is in the wrong position . Adjust the regulator on the tool to the maximum setting .

The tool impacts rapidly, but will not remove bolts .

The tool has a worn impact mechanism . Replace the worn impact mechanism components .

The tool does not impact . The impact mechanism is broken . Replace the broken impact mechanism components .
