Air Supply Requirements
Lubrication
Sound pressure level 105 dB(A) in accordance with Pneurop PN8NTC1.2. For
sound power, add 10 dB(A).
Operation
The intended use of this impact wrench is with impact rated sockets operating
upon threaded fastners. To operate, pull trigger on handle. To operate in
forward rotation, rotate reverse valve located next to the trigger to position F.
To operate in reverse, rotate to position R. Tool weighs 33 lbs.
Maintenance
1. Supply tool with 90 psig (6.2 bar) of clean, dry air. Higher pressure reduces tool
life.
2. Connect tool to air line using pipe, hose, and fitting sizes shown on page 12.
1. Use an air line lubricator with air tool oil, adjusted to two (2) drops per minute. If
an air line lubricator cannot be used, add oil to the inlet once a day.
2. Check clutch grease each month. Use 1-1/3 oz. grease to relubricate.

*These declared values were obtained by laboratory type testing in compliance with the stated standards and are not
adequate for use in risk assessments. Values measured in individual work places may be higher than the declared
values. The actual exposure values and risk of harm experienced by an individual user are unique and depend upon the
way the user works, the workpiece and the workstation design, as well as upon the exposure time and the physical
condition of the user. We, Chicago Pneumatic, cannot be held liable for the consequences of using the declared values,
instead of values reflecting the actual exposure, in an individual risk assessment in a work place situation over which we
have no control.

Projectile Hazards
Always wear impact-resistant eye and face protection when involved with or
near the operation, repair or maintenance of the tool or changing
accessories on the tool.
Be sure all others in the area are wearing impact-resistant eye and face
protection.
Even small projectiles can injure eyes and cause blindness.
Do not use hand sockets. Use only impact wrench sockets in good condition.
Sockets in poor condition or hand sockets used with impact wrenches can
shatter.
Always use the simplest hook-up possible. Long, springy extension bars and
adapters absorb impact power and could break. Use deep sockets wherever
possible.
Never operate the tool off of the work. It may run too fast and cause the
accessory to be thrown off the tool.
Workplace Hazards
Slip/Trip/Fall is a major cause of serious injury or death. Beware of excess
hose left on the walking or work surface.

protection as recommended by your employer or OSHA regulation (see 29
CFR part 1910).

Be in control of the throttle at all times. Do not get caught between the tool
and the work.
Repetitive work motions, awkward positions and exposure to vibration can
be harmful to hands and arms. If numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of the
skin occurs, stop using the tool and consult a physician.
Avoid inhaling dust or handling debris from work process that can be harmful
to your health. Proper breathing protection must be worn when working with
materials which produce airborne particles.
