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 specically designed to lter out microscopic particles.
Important Warnings - Ratchets
Specications
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.
Accessory Hazards
3. Disconnect the assembly power tool for threaded fasteners from the energy supply before changing the inserted tool or
accessory.
4. Do not touch sockets or accessories during impacting as this increases the risk of cuts, burns or vibration injuries.
5. 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
ƑA 3/8" air hose is required, with a maximum length of 25 ft.
ƑClean 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 nut runner has the
necessary air supply.
Recommended Air Line Set-Up
Part Description
A Air Tool
B Quick Plug
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
ƑAn in-line lter-regulator-lubricator is recommended as it increases tool life and keeps the tool in sustained operation.
ƑRegularly check and ll the in-line lubricator with air tool oil. Avoid using excessive amounts of oil.
ƑAdjust 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.
ƑIf 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.
ƑRecommended 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

FLORIDA-PNEUMATIC.COM
Please contact 1-800-356-3392 for further assistance.
Operation
1 Operating the nut runner
ƑThis Nut Runner is designed to operate on 90 PSIG. Low
pressure (below 90 PSIG) will reduce the power output.
Higher pressure (over 90 PSIG) raises the tool performance
beyond its rated capacity and could result in serious
damage to the tool and/or operator.
ƑPress trigger to run tool.
2 Changing the output torque direction
ƑThis tools 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 turning the reverse switch to the F (Forward)
or R (Reverse) position to change the direction.
3 Installing and removing the sockets
WARNING: Disconnect the tool from air the supply before
servicing or changing accessories.
To install the sockets:
ƑDisconnect the tool from the air source.
ƑSelect the suitable and desirable socket size.
ƑPress t the anvil into the socket.
To remove the impact socket:
ƑDisconnect the tool from the air source.
ƑUse your hand or suitable tool to remove the socket.
4 Tightening or loosening the bolt or
fastener
ƑFit the socket in.
ƑHold the nut runner with one hand.
ƑUse the tool to tighten or loosen the bolt or fastener.

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. ƑAdjust the regulator on the tool to the
maximum setting.
ƑAdjust the compressor regulator to the tool’s
maximum setting of 90 psi.
The air hose leaks. Tighten and seal the hose ttings with pipe thread
tape if leaks are found.
The air pressure drops. ƑEnsure 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.
ƑDo not use a multiple number of hoses
connected together with a quick connect
tting. 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.
