WITH HAZARDS CAUSED BY ACCESSORIES
Disconnect the tool from the power source before changing the inserted tool or accessory. Do not touch attachments and
accessories while the tool is running, as this increases the risk of cuts, burns, or injury due to vibration. Use accessories
and consumables only in sizes and types recommended by the manufacturer. Only use impact sockets that are in good
condition, poor condition or non-impact sockets used with percussion tools may break apart and become a projectile.
WITH RISKS RELATED TO THE WORKPLACE
Slips, trips and falls are the main causes of injury. Beware of slippery surfaces caused by the use of the tool, as well
as tripping hazards due to air installation. Proceed with caution in unfamiliar surroundings. There may be hidden
dangers such as electricity or other utility lines. The air tool is not intended for use in potentially explosive
atmospheres and is not insulated against contact with electrical energy. Make sure that there are no electric cables,
gas pipes, etc. that could be hazardous if damaged with a tool.
WITH HAZARDS RELATED TO FUMES AND DUST
Dust and fumes from an air powered tool can cause ill health (for example, cancer, birth defects, asthma and / or
dermatitis), it is essential to: assess the risks and implement appropriate control measures for these hazards. The risk
assessment should include the effect of dust generated by the tool and the potential for disturbing any dust present. The
air outlet should be directed to minimize the induction of dust in a dusty environment. Where dust or fumes are
generated, priority should be given to controlling them at the source of the emission. All integrated functions and
equipment for collecting, extracting or reducing dust or smoke should be properly used and maintained in accordance
with the manufacturer's recommendations. Use respiratory protection in accordance with the employer's instructions and
in accordance with hygiene and safety requirements.
WITH NOISE DANGER
Exposure to high levels of noise can cause permanent and irreversible hearing loss and other problems such as
tinnitus (ringing, buzzing, whistling or humming in the ears). It is essential to assess the risks and implement
appropriate control measures to address these risks. Appropriate controls to reduce risk may include measures such
as: damping materials to prevent 'ringing' of the workpiece. Use hearing protection in accordance with the employer's
instructions and in accordance with hygiene and safety requirements. The operation and maintenance of the air tool
should be carried out in accordance with the recommendations of the instruction manual, it will avoid unnecessary
increase of the noise level. If your air tool has a muffler, always make sure it is properly installed when using the tool.

7

vibration. Do not use worn or poorly fitted attachments as this can significantly increase the vibration level. Select,
maintain and replace worn tools in accordance with the recommendations in the instruction manual. This will avoid
an unnecessary increase in the vibration level. Shielding mounting should be used where possible. If possible,
support the weight of the tool in a stand, tensioner or balancer. Hold the tool with a light but firm grip taking into
account the required reaction forces, as the risk of vibration is usually greater when the gripping force is higher.
Additional Safety Instructions for Air Tools Pressurized air can cause serious injury: - always shut off the air supply,
deflate the hose of air pressure and disconnect the tool from the air supply when: is not used, before changing
accessories or when making repairs; - never direct air at yourself or anyone else. Hitting the hose can cause serious
injury. Always inspect for damaged or loose hoses and couplings. Direct cold air away from your hands. Do not use
the quick coupler at the inlet of the impact tool and air / hydraulic tool. Use threaded fittings made of hardened steel
(or a material of similar strength). Whenever universal screw connections (claw connections) are used, safety bolts
and securing connectors must be used against possible damage to the connections between the hoses and between
the hose and the tool. Do not exceed the maximum air pressure specified for the tool. Air pressure is critical to safety
and affects performance in variable torque systems and continuous speed tools. In this case, the requirements
regarding the length and diameter of the hoses should be met. Never carry the tool by the hose.
PREPARATION TO WORK
1. The tool should be supplied with clean and dry (no water) air at 6.2 bar (90psi).
2. Do not supply air pressure greater than 6.2 bar (90psi) as this will result in faster wear to the tool.
3. The tool should be connected to the air source, paying particular attention to the pipe diameters and air
preparation block shown in the drawing below.
4. Use an air grease gun, the dispenser should be set to deliver 2 drops of oil per minute.
5. If the use of a grease gun is not possible, add 2 drops of oil to the air inlet before starting work.

MAINTENANCE OF THE DEVICE
IN CONDITIONS OF USE
Make sure that the compressed air source is capable of generating the correct operating pressure and that the
required air flow is ensured. If the supply air pressure is too high, a reducer with a safety valve should be used. The
air tool should be fed through the filter and lubricator system. This will keep the air clean and moisturized with oil at
the same time. The condition of the filter and lubricator should be checked before each use and, if necessary, clean
the filter or refill the oil deficiency in the lubricator. This will ensure proper use of the tool and extend its life. If
additional handles or support stands are used, make sure that the tool is properly and securely fastened.
Adequate posture must be adopted to counteract normal or unexpected torque-induced movement of the tool. The
socket wrenches and other insert tools used must be suitable for working with pneumatic tools. Attached insert tools
must be functional, clean and undamaged, and their size adjusted to the size of the driver. It is forbidden to modify
the sockets of the keys or the driver.
AT HANDLING THE TOOL
Before each use of the tool, make sure that no element of the pneumatic system is damaged. If any damage is
noticed, the undamaged system components must be replaced immediately. Before each use of the pneumatic
system, dry any moisture condensed inside the tool, compressor and hoses.

sure that the size of the socket wrench is selected correctly in relation to the element to be unscrewed or tightened.
Incorrect selection of sizes may result in the destruction of both the key and the nut or bolt.
ABOUT TIGHTENING AND TIGHTENING
Adjust the pressure in the pneumatic system so that it does not exceed the maximum value for the tool. Set the
correct direction of rotation of the tool and the correct torque. Fit a suitable socket wrench on the tool carrier. Connect
the wrench to the pneumatic system. Put the wrench with the cap mounted on the element to be unscrewed or
tightened. Squeeze the trigger of the tool gradually. After finishing work, disassemble the pneumatic system and
preserve the tool.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Work not described in this manual should be performed by an authorized customer service point.
Use only original parts.
Never use gasoline, thinner or other flammable liquids to clean the tool. Fumes can catch fire, causing the tool to
explode and seriously injure you. Solvents used to clean the toolholder and body can soften the seals. Thoroughly
dry the tool before starting work. In case of any irregularities in the operation of the tool, the tool should be
immediately disconnected from the pneumatic system. All elements of the pneumatic system must be protected
against contamination. Contamination that enters the pneumatic system may destroy the tool and other elements of
the pneumatic system.
K. TOOL MAINTENANCE BEFORE EVERY USE
Disconnect the tool from the pneumatic system. Before each use, pour a small amount of preservative fluid (eg WD-40)
through the air inlet. Connect the tool to the pneumatic system and run it for about 30 seconds. This will allow the
preservative liquid to be spread over the interior of the tool and cleaned. Disconnect the tool from the pneumatic system
again. Apply a small amount of SAE 10 oil to the inside of the tool through the air inlet hole and the holes provided for this
purpose.
12

SAE 10 oil designed for air tool maintenance is recommended. Connect the tool and let it run for a short time.
Warning! WD-40 cannot be used as a proper lubricant. Wipe off any excess oil that leaked from the oil drain holes.
Any leftover oil can damage the tool seals.
AND OTHER MAINTENANCE
Before each use of the tool, check the tool for any visible signs of damage. Keep the drivers, tool holders and
spindles clean. Every 6 months or after 100 operating hours, have the tool checked by qualified personnel in a repair
shop. If the tool has been used without using the recommended air supply system, the frequency of the tool
inspections should be increased.
AT TROUBLESHOOTING
Discontinue use of the tool as soon as you discover any fault. Operating a defective tool may cause injuries. Any
repairs or replacements of tool elements must be performed by qualified personnel in an authorized repair shop.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Let a small amount of WD-40 through the air inlet hole. Run the tool for a few seconds. The
blades may be sticking to the impeller. Run the tool for approximately 30 seconds. Lubricate
the tool with a little oil. Warning! Excess oil can reduce the power of the tool. In this case,
clean the drive.
The compressor is not supplying proper air supply. The tool is activated with the air
accumulated in the compressor tank. As the tank becomes empty, the compressor cannot
keep up with replenishing the shortages of air. Connect the device to a more efficient
compressor.
Make sure your hoses have inner diameter. Check the pressure setting is set to the
maximum value. Make sure the tool is properly cleaned and lubricated. If no results are
found, have the tool repaired.
