Explanation of symbols
In this manual and/or on the machine the following symbols are used:
Read instructions carefully
In accordance with essential applicable safety standards of European directives
Denotes risk of personal injury, loss of life or damage to the tool in case of non-
observance of the instructions in this manual.
Indicates electrical shock hazard.
Faulty and/or discarded electrical or electronic apparatus have to be collected at
the appropriate recycling locations.
General Safety Rules
WARNING! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the
warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery
operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) Work area
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gasses or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust of
fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges
2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
UK

UK Help Line: 0870 - 7323023 / IRELAND Help Line: 1800-481005 - AUTO-XS 5
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or
grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. Always use tools
in conjunction with a residual circuit breaker device.
3) Personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust
related hazards.
h. Use clamps or a vice to hold work. It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both hands to
operate tools.
4) Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have

the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions
and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from intended could result in hazardous situation.
h. Damaged switches must be replaced at a customer service repair centre. Do not use
power tools that cannot be switched on and off.
i. Do not leave power tools unattended while they are switched on. Always switch off the
tool and wait until it has come to a full standstill before leaving.
j. If the mains cable has been damaged, it must be replaced with a special mains cable.
These can be obtained from the manufacturer or the manufacturer's customer service
department. The mains cable may only be replaced by the manufacturer, the
manufacturer's customer service department or equally qualified persons.
5) Battery tool use and care
a. Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery
pack into power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
b. Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable
for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
c. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
d. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from
one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause a fire.
e. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritations or burns.
6) Service
a. Please use a qualified expert who uses original replacement parts to repair your power
tool. This will ensure proper functioning of the power tool.
b. Caution! The use of any accessories or additional tools other than those recommended in
this manual may lead to an increased risk of injury. Only use original replacement parts.

2. 12V battery
The adapter supplied (7) has two connecting clamps (red and black) and a connector for the
plug of the impact car wrench.
• Connect the plug on the impact car wrench to the adapter cable.
• First connect the black clamp to the negative (-) battery terminal.
• Then connect the red clamp to the positive (+) battery terminal.
Using
• Use the on/off switch (1) to switch the machine on or off.
• Set the direction of rotation of the output shaft with switch (2).
The electric motor turns a weight in the head of the machine. After a few seconds the output
shaft will be given a hefty impact from the weight because of the centrifugal force, which will
tighten or loosen the wheel nut step by step.
Loosening a wheel nut
• Turn the rotation direction switch (2) to position R (Release).
• Put the machine on the wheel nut using the right socket.
• Switch on the machine with the on/off switch and hold the machine tightly.
• You will hear the electric motor rotating and after a few seconds the machine will give the
nut a hefty anticlockwise impact. This will be repeated until the nut is loose.
• Release the on/off switch to switch off the machine.
Tightening a wheel nut
• Tighten the wheel nut as far as possible by hand. The machine works best when the nut
experiences sufficient resistance.
• Turn the rotation direction switch (2) to position F (Fasten).
• Switch on the machine with the on/off switch and hold the machine tightly.
• You will hear the electric motor rotating and after a few seconds the machine will give the
nut a hefty clockwise impact. This will be repeated until the nut is tight.
• Release the on/off switch to switch off the machine.
• N.B.: always check that wheel nuts are tight afterwards using a torque wrench.
LED lighting
When the on/off switch is operated the white LED lighting will also be switched on. This keeps
the wheel nut visible even when it is dark.
