OPERATION
CAUTION: ALWAYS BE SURE THAT THE TOOL IS SWITCHED OFF BEFORE
ATTACHING OR REMOVING A SOCKET. ALWAYS TAKE CARE TO USE THE
CORRECT SIZE SOCKET FOR BOLTS AND NUTS. AN INCORRECT SOCKET
WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE BOLT OR NUT.
1. Align the chosen socket and simply push it onto the anvil. Use only ½”
square drive impact sockets supplied or as listed on page 10.
2. Squeeze the trigger to start the wrench. Release the trigger to stop.
3. To run the impact wrench in reverse, push the switch-bar through the drive
unit. The direction of rotation is shown on the end face of the switch-bar.
•
The 3-position switch bar controls forward or reverse direction of rotation.
Select the appropriate position ONLY when the machine is STATIONARY. Do
not move the switch-bar when the spindle is moving. When the switch-bar
is in the central position the trigger is locked.
4. Always check the direction of rotation before operation.
5. Turn off the machine as soon as the impact sound is heard.
Note: As the battery becomes discharged, the power available will drop.
Operating the machine at low speed will cause a reduction in torque.
6. After use, recharge the battery pack as on page 9. Avoid leaving your
batteries in a discharged state.
LOOSENING A WHEEL NUT
1. Remove any wheel trim, before selecting the appropriate socket and
placing firmly on the square drive of the wrench.
2. With the FORWARD/NEUTRAL/REVERSE switchbar
in the REVERSE running position, and holding the wrench firmly in BOTH
HANDS, pull the trigger. The nut will be impacted repeatedly until it is
loosened.
IMPORTANT!
Release the trigger immediately the nut begins to
loosen.
3. Jack up the vehicle according to the vehicles handbook so that the
wheel is clear of the ground, then proceed to fully undo the wheel nuts.
ENSURE THAT THE CORRECT SOCKET IS BEING USED FOR THE NUTS ON
YOUR PARTICULAR VEHICLE. AN INCORRECT SOCKET SIZE IS LIKELY TO
DAMAGE THE HEADS OF THE BOLTS/NUTS.
