REMOVING AN ACCESSORY
NOTE: The accessory may be warm or hot if it has just been used. Allow it sufficient time to cool down, if necessary.
To remove an accessory:
1. Grasp the accessory and firmly pull it off.
NOTE: when your impact wrench is new, the hog ring may need to wear in, and it may be very difficult to remove
accessories.
If you cannot remove an accessory by simply pulling it off:
1. Wiggle the accessory back and forth while pulling to try to work it off the anvil.
2. If this does not work, enlist the help of a friend or trustworthy foe to clamp the accessory in a vise. Have your
assistant hold the impact wrench. Place a pin punch through the accessory and against the anvil. Use a mallet to
gently tap the punch until the anvil separates from the accessory.
WARNING: To prevent serious injury, make sure all the warnings and instructions have been read and
understood before operating this tool.
WORK AREA AND WORKPIECE SET UP
1. Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit, away from possible hazards.
2. Safely route the power cord to the tool to avoid exposing the power cord to possible damage or creating a tripping
hazard. The power cord must reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working.
3. Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps (not included) to prevent movement while working. Never hold
a workpiece in your hands or across your legs.
GENERAL OPERATION
1. Plug your tool into an appropriate power outlet.
2. Hold the tool with both hands, keeping one hand on the handle and the other hand on the front housing.
3. Turn ON the wrench by pressing the corresponding area of the switch for either clockwise (F) or counterclockwise
(R) rotation. NOTE: Check the direction of rotation before beginning your work.
4. The torque is controlled by the pressure exerted on the power switch. Use the appropriate amount of torque for
the work, but do not force the tool.
NOTE: The amount of actual torque may vary depending on the condition of the threads and other factors. If
tightening critical components, check the actual torque applied to the fastener with a mechanical torque wrench
(not included).
WARNING: Do not touch or hold the drive bit during use.
5. When finished with the work, release the power switch. Wait for the tool to come to a complete stop before setting
it down. Disconnect its power supply.
