Using The Tool (Continued)
• Do not modify the tool, safety devices, or accessories.
• Do not use this tool for purposes other than those
recommended.
• Use accessories recommended by Ingersoll--Rand.
• Note the position of the reversing mechanism before
operating the tool so as to be aware of the direction of
rotation when operating the throttle.
• Use only impact sockets and accessories. Do not use
hand (chrome) sockets or accessories.
• Whenever the Ratchet Head is installed or
repositioned, the Throttle Lever must be positioned so
that reaction torque will not tend to retain the throttle
in the “ON” position.
• Ratchet Wrenches are not torque wrenches.
Connections requiring specific torque must be
checked with a torque meter after fitting with an
impact wrench.
• Periodically check the drive end of the tool to make
certain that the socket retainer functions correctly,
and that sockets and drive ends are not excessively
worn which may allow the socket to come off when
rotating.
The use of other than genuine Ingersoll--Rand replacement parts may result in safety hazards, decreased tool
performance, and increased maintenance, and may invalidate all warranties.
Repairs should be made only by authorized trained personnel. Consult your nearest Ingersoll--Rand Authorized
Servicenter.

WARNING
USING THE POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
SettingThe Power Regulator
Impact wrenches are not torque control devices.
Fasteners with specific torque requirements must be
checked with suitable torque measuring devices after
installation with an impact wrench.
232TGSL Impact Wrench incorporates a power regulator
into the reverse mechanism that allows the operator to
have either full power output in one direction and reduced
power output in the other direction or full power output in
both directions. To adjust the power, proceed as follows:
For full power in both directions, rotate the reverse
valve until the notch on each end of the reverse valve
aligns with the number 5 on each side of the housing.
The numbers 0 thru 5 on the
housing are only for reference
and DO NOT denote a specific
power output. Zero (0)
designates the lowest power
output while five (5) denotes
the highest.
For reduced power in the forward direction and full
power in the reverse direction, push the reverse valve
inward on the right side of the tool and rotate the reverse
valve until the notch on the right side aligns with the
desired number on the right side. This provides reduced
power in forward but full power in reverse when the
reverse valve is pushed in the opposite direction.
See Dwg. TPD1248.

For reduced power in the reverse direction and full
power in the forward direction, push the reverse valve
inward on the left side of the tool and rotate the reverse
valve until the notch on the left side aligns with the

in forward but reduced power in reverse when the reverse
valve is pushed the opposite direction.
