5. Remove the screw and hold

the oil port hole over a

container to allow excess oil

to drain.

6. If the oil is dirty, repeat the

procedure above until the oil

comes out clear. Install the

screw and tighten. The residual

oil remaining in the impact

mechanism chamber is all that is needed for proper

lubrication

Air supply

Air supply MUST be greater than air requirement of the

tool. Recommended air compressor is 3/4HP tank for

intermittent use; 1.5HP or larger for heavier duty use

Storage

The impact wrench must be lubricated before storing.

Follow the air motor lubrication instructions. Only run for

3 seconds instead of 20 seconds because more oil needs to

remain in the tool when storing.

Adjustable speed control

This impact wrench is equipped

with a regulator for adjustable

speed control (4). This switch is

located at the rear of the tool.

The impact wrench should NEVER

be used to set torque. Use a

torque wrench to set the torque.
To remove nuts, set the regulator to the maximum setting.

To install nuts, set the regulator to the minimum to

medium setting. Do not over-tighten the nuts.
Forward and reverse directions are controlled by rotating

the speed control knob noted.

General inspection

1. Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight.
2. The supply cord of the compressor should be checked

frequently for damage. If damaged, have the cordset

replaced by an authorised service facility to avoid a

hazard.

Cleaning

1. Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and clean at all

times.

2. Remove dust and dirt regularly. Cleaning is best done

with a soft brush or a rag.

3. Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
4. If the body of the air tool needs cleaning, wipe it with

a soft damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used but

nothing like alcohol, petrol or other cleaning agent.

5. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.

CAUTION:

Water must never come into contact with the tool.

Repairs

1. Only an authorised service centre should carry out

repairs on air tools.
