to
the
'Off'
position when released.
-Always
shut
off
the
air
supply
to
the
tool
and
press
the
'OntOff'
valve
to
exhaust
the
air
from
the
feed
hose
before
fitting,
removing
or
adjusting the working
attachment fitted
to
the
tool.
-Before
using
the
tool,
make
sure
that
a
shut
off
device
has
been
fitted
to
the
air
supply line
and
the
position
is
known and
easily
accessible
so
that
the
air supply to
the
tool
can
be
shut
off in
an
emergency.
-Check
hose
and
fittings
regularly
for
wear-
-Take
care against entanglement
of
the
moving
parts
of
the tool with
clothing,
hair,
ties,
cleaning
rags,
rings,
jewelry,
watches,
bracelets,
etc.
This
could
cause
the
body
or
parts
of
the
body
to
be
drawn towards
and
in
contact
with
the
moving
parts
of
the
tool
and
could
be
very dangerous.
-It
is
expected that users will
adopt
safe
working
practices
and observe all
local,
regional
and
country
legal
requirements
when
installing,
using
or
maintaining the
tool.
-Take
care
that
the
exhaust
air
does
not
point
towards
any
other person or material
or
substance
that
could
be
contaminated
by
oil
droplets.
When first lubricating
a
tool
or
if
the
tool
exhaust
has
a
high
oil
content,
do
not
allow
the
exhaust
air
to
come
near
very
hot
surfaces
or
flames.
Never
lay
the
tool
down
until
the
working
attachment
has
stopped
moving.
-When
the
tool
is
no?
in
use,
shut
off
the air
supply
and
press the triggerflever
to
drain the
supply
line.
If
the
toot
is
not
to
be
used
for
a
period
of
time,
first
lubricate,
disconnect
from air
supply
and
store
in
a
dry
average
room
temperature
environment.
-If the tool
is
passed
from
one
user
to
a
new
or
inexperienced
user,
make
sure
these instructions are
passed
with
the
tool.
-
Do
not remove
any
manufacturer fitted
safety
devices
where
fitted,

wheel
guards,
safety

speed
governors,
etc.
-Wherever
possible,

-
The
tool
should
only
be
used
as
a
handheld, hand operated tool.
It
is
always
recommended that the tool
is
used
when
standing
on the
solid
floor.
It
can
be
used
in other positions. but
before
any
such
use,
the
operator
must
be
in
a
secure position having
a
firm grip
and
footing
and
be
aware that
when
loosening
fasteners
the
tool
can
move quite quickty
away
from
the fastener being undone. An
allowance must
always
be
made
for this rearward movement
so
as
to
avoid
the oossibilitv
of

is
connected to the air

Do
not connect the tool to the air

system
without incorporating
an
easy
to reach

be
lubricated.
It
is
strongly
recommended
that
an air filter, regulator, lubricator
(FRL)
is used,
as
shown
in Figure

as
this will supply

lubricated airat the
correct
pressure to the tool. Details of such equipment
can

When

ensure
that the air strainer in hose adaptor

It is
recommended
that joint tightness of

Operating
The
output
of
the
impact
wench in prime working condition is
governed
by
mainly three factors:
a)
the
input
air
pressure;
b)
the
time
the
impact
wrench
is
operated
on
the joint. Normal
time

joints of average tension requirement

c)
the
selling
of
the
air
regulator
for
a
given joint
at
a
given pressure
operated
for a
given time.
The
air regulator
(26)
can
be
used
to regulate the output of the
impact
wench
if
no
other
means
of
control is available.
