future reference.
IMPACT WRENCH SAFETY
WARNINGS
1.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the
fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Fasteners contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
2.
Wear ear protectors.
3.
Check the socket carefully for wear, cracks or
damage before installation.
4.
Hold the tool firmly.
5.
Always be sure you have a firm footing.
Be sure no one is below when using the tool in
high locations.
6.
The proper fastening torque may differ
depending upon the kind or size of the bolt.
Check the torque with a torque wrench.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING:
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product
(gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence
to safety rules for the subject product. MISUSE or
failure to follow the safety rules stated in this
instruction manual may cause serious personal
injury.

CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see
•
that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns
to the "OFF" position when released.
Change the direction of rotation only when the tool
•

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
•
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
GEB009-6
Selecting correct socket
Always use the correct size socket for bolts and nuts. An
incorrect size socket will result in inaccurate and
inconsistent fastening torque and/or damage to the bolt
or nut.
Installing or removing socket
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
•
unplugged before installing or removing the socket.
Fig.2
For socket without O-ring and pin
To install the socket, push it onto the anvil of the tool until
it locks into place.
To remove the socket, simply pull it off.
For socket with O-ring and pin
Fig.3
Move the O-ring out of the groove in the socket and
remove the pin from the socket. Fit the socket onto the
anvil of the tool so that the hole in the socket is aligned
with the hole in the anvil. Insert the pin through the hole
in the socket and anvil. Then return the O-ring to the
original position in the socket groove to retain the pin. To
remove the socket, follow the installation procedures in
reverse.
