Safety Information (continued)
AIR COMPRESSOR AND AIR TOOL SAFETY
1. Risk of Bursting. Do not adjust the regulator to result in output
pressure greater than the marked maximum pressure of this air
tool.
2. Ensure the hose is free of obstructions or snags. Entangled or
snarled hoses can cause loss of balance or footing and may
become damaged.
3. Never leave a tool unattended with the air hose attached.
4. Do not operate this tool if it does not contain a legible warning
label.
5. Do not continue to use a tool or hose that leaks air or does not function
properly.
6. Never direct a jet of compressed air toward people or animals.
7. Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is
dusty.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
Lead from lead based paint, crystalline silica from bricks
and cement and other masonry products, arsenic and
chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from those exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated area, and work
with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that
are specically designed to lter out microscopic particles.
Specications
Important Warnings - Impacts
1. Eye protection and hearing protection and safety gloves must always be worn when operating an impact wrench or impact
driver.
2. When using heavy impact sockets or sockets on impact wrenches with 3/4” drive anvils or larger, a socket retaining ring
and pin should be used to prevent the socket falling off and causing injury.
3. Use only impact sockets and accessories. Only use sockets designated “FOR USE WITH IMPACT WRENCHES”, hand tool
sockets can break, creating a hazard from ying pieces. Always check sockets, retainers and drives regularly for wear or
damage and replace when necessary.
Accessory Hazards
4. Disconnect the assembly power tool for threaded fasteners from the energy supply before changing the inserted tool or
accessory.
5. Do not touch sockets or accessories during impacting as this increases the risk of cuts, burns or vibration injuries.
6. Use only sizes and types of accessories and consumables that are recommended by the assembly power tool for threaded
fasteners manufacturer; do not use other types or sizes of accessories and consumables.

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.

C Quick Coupler
D Air Hose
E In-line Regulator
F In-line Lubricator
G In-line Filter
H Air Compressor
Ensure 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 lter-regulator-lubricator is recommended as it increases tool life and keeps the tool in sustained operation.
□Regularly check and ll 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.
Maintenance
Grease the clutch every 48 hours and
MP#2 Grease is recommended.

Operation
1 Operating the impact wrench
□This 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 the tool and the user.
2 Changing the output torque direction
□This tool features a 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 ECD bar
in the F (Forward) or R (Reverse) position to change the
direction.
3 Changing the output torque level
□The tool always has maximum torque in reverse
□For torque setting in the forward direction, turn the control
switch at the rear of the tool to the required torque setting
shown on the graduated scale; there are four settings
available shown in both ft-lb and Nm
4 Tightening/loosening the bolts or
fasteners
□Fit the correct size socket to the anvil of the impact
wrench.
□For tightening the lug nut set the impact wrench at the
required torque setting in forward direction. Do not run
the tool prior to placing the socket on the lug nut. Hold
the impact wrench with one hand and place the socket
onto the lug nut to be tightened. Press the trigger fully and
hold down without “feathering” or “interrupting”. Stop the
operation as soon as the green indicator light illuminates.
Should the red indicator light illuminate check the lug nut
with a calibrated torque wrench.
□For loosening the lug nut hold the impact wrench with one
hand and set the tool in the reverse direction. Press the
trigger until the lug nut is removed.
WARNING: Once the green indicator light illuminates, stop
tightening the lug nut immediately. Continuing to tighten the
lug nut after the green light illuminates will stretch or fracture
the wheel stud or damage brake components. Always nal
check lug nut torque with a calibrated torque wrench.

Selection
□Press button once to start
□Press button a second time
and hold down to select
torque reading in either
ft-lb or N-m. Once the
above processes are
completed they do not
have to be repeated
when using the tool.
