Replacing Carbon Brushes - Makita BCS550 Manual De Instrucciones

Failure to use the correct size socket will
•
cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
A worn socket (wear on the hex end or square
•
end) will cause a reduction in the fastening
torque.
3. Bolt
Even though the torque coefficient and the
•
class of bolt are the same, the proper
fastening torque will differ according to the
diameter of bolt.
Even though the diameters of bolts are the
•
same, the proper fastening torque will differ
according to the torque coefficient, the class of
bolt and the bolt length.
4. The use of the universal joint or the extension bar
somewhat reduces the fastening force of the
impact wrench. Compensate by fastening for a
longer period of time.
5. The manner of holding the tool or the material of
driving position to be fastened will affect the
torque.
6. Operating the tool at low speed will cause a
reduction in the fastening torque.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
