instructions, and properly maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.
WARNING! DO NOT use wrench if damaged or thought to be faulty. Contact Service Agent.
 WARNING!Disconnect from the air supply before changing accessories or servicing.
WARNING! Due to the possible presence of asbestos dust from brake linings, when working around vehicle brake systems we recommend
you wear suitable respiratory protection.
WARNING! Check correct air pressure is maintained and not exceeded. We recommend 90psi.
 DO NOT use the wrench for a task it is not designed to perform.
 DO NOT use worn, or damaged sockets
 DO NOT use the wrench unless you have been instructed in its use by a qualified person.
 DO NOT use the wrench for a task it is not designed to perform.
 DO NOT carry the wrench by the air hose, or yank the hose from the air supply.
 DO NOT operate the wrench if you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
 DO NOT carry the wrench with your hand on the power trigger in order to avoid unintentional starting.
 DO NOT direct air from the air hose at yourself or others.
 Maintain the wrench in good condition and replace any damaged or worn parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts
may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
Keep air hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check air hose for wear before each use and ensure that all connections are
secure.
Only use impact sockets which are specifically designed for use with an impact wrench.
 Wear approved safety eye/face shield, ear defenders and hand protection.
 Follow all workshop safety rules, regulations, and conditions when using the wrench.
 Maintain correct balance and footing. Ensure the floor is not slippery and wear non-slip shoes.
 Keep children and non essential persons away from the working area.
 When not in use disconnect from air supply and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
Combination of composite materials, alloyed metals and twin hammer design, result in a lightweight, durable and powerful air impact wrench.
Soft grip handle, with downward facing exhaust, makes this wrench comfortable on the hands and ears and limits the circulation of brake dust
on wheel applications. Fingertip control of power and direction via a lever on rear of wrench. Suitable for professional garage use.

4. PREPARATION
WARNING! Ensure the air supply is clean and does not exceed 90psi while operating the wrench. Too high an air pressure and/or
unclean air will shorten the product life due to excessive wear, and may be dangerous causing damage and/or personal injury.
4.1. AIR SUPPLY
4.1.1. Ensure the wrench trigger is not depressed when connecting to the air supply.
4.1.2. You will require an air pressure of 90psi, and an air flow according to specification.
4.1.3. Drain your compressor air tank of water daily. Water in the air line will damage the wrench.
4.1.4. Clean the compressor air inlet filter weekly. Recommended hook-up procedure is shown in fig.1; see also note 4.2.
4.1.5. Line pressure should be increased to compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 8 metres). The minimum hose diameter should be
1/4” I.D. and fittings must have the same inside dimensions.
4.1.6. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hose for wear, and make certain that all connections are secure.
4.2. COUPLINGS
Vibration may cause failure if a quick change coupling is connected directly to the wrench. To overcome this, connect a leader hose to
the wrench. A quick change coupling may then be used to connect the leader hose to the air line recoil hose. See fig.1 & fig.2.

WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply safety instructions before use.
5.1. Only use impact sockets which are specifically designed for use with an impact wrench.
5.2. Connect the wrench to the air hose as in section 4.
5.3. Place the socket fully over the subject nut and depress the trigger to operate the wrench.
5.4. To change direction, turn the air regulator on the rear of the body to the desired direction and
torque (fig.3); which shows the forward minimum mode.
DO NOT use any additional force upon the wrench in order to remove a nut.
DO NOT allow the wrench to free run for an extended period of time as this will reduce bearing life.

 WARNING!Disconnect the wrench from the air supply before changing accessories, servicing or performing maintenance.
Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
6.1. If the air system does not have an oiler, lubricate the air wrench daily with a few drops of Sealey air tool oil dripped into the air inlet.
6.2. Clean the wrench after use with a mild detergent on a moist cloth.
6.3. For a full service contact your local Sealey service agent.
6.4. When not in use, disconnect from the air supply, store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
7.1. Loss of power or erratic action may be due to the following:
a) Excessive drain on the air line. Moisture or restriction in the air pipe. Incorrect size or type of hose connectors. To remedy check the
air supply and follow instructions in section 3.
b) Grit or gum deposits in the wrench may also reduce performance. This may be evident in the air strainer located in the area of the
air inlet. Flush the wrench out with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of SAE No 10 oil and paraffin. Allow to dry before use.

WARNING! – Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury.
This tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
This tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
Measured vibration emission value (a): ..........5.57 m/s²
Uncertainty value (k):..........................1.05m/s²
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend that a
specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration
Syndrome.
Health surveillance.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be
modified accordingly.
Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry
and maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the Correct Use
and Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the HSC website
www.hse.gov.uk - Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.
