READ ALL THE SECTIONS OF THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CAREFULLY. SAFETY ISTRUCTIONS FOR IMPACT WRENCHES
It is our aim to supply air tools which allow you to work efficiently and SAFELY. It is however understood that YOU are the
most important 'safety device' for any tool, as taking meticulous care is the best way of preventing injury. Although we cannot
enumerate all types of risks here, we tried to lay stress on some of the most significant ones. Let us remind you that this tool must
be used only by skilled workers and that the machine must never be forced; do not overload the tool.
RISKS DUE TO CONNECTION TO COMPRESSED AIR
Compressed air may harm people severely. Do not direct air towards you or any other people. The air coming out of the hoses may
harm people severely; periodically check whether the hoses and/or fittings are loose and/or have been damaged.
Whipping hoses may cause severe damage. Before handling the tool, close the main plant, release residual pressure and
disconnect the tool only when it is not working. Pressure must not exceed 6.2 bar, as measured at the air inlet while the tool is
working, or the value shown on the tool plate.
RISKS OF VARIOUS KINDS
Stay at a safety distance from the rotating parts of the tool. Do not wear any accessory round your neck, such as chains or
necklaces. Do not wear any bracelets or loose clothes. Avoid contact of accessories and tools with your hair. Avoid contact with
any accessories in motion, while the tool is being used or after it has been used. Always wear work gloves to reduce the risk of
cutting and burning yourself.
RISKS DUE TO SPLINTERS AND FRAGMENTS
Warning: small splinters and fragments may also harm your eyes and result in blindness. Always wear eye protection while using
the tool, doing any maintenance jobs and replacing any accessories or spare parts. This measure must also be taken by anyone
who works nearby.
Use only impact sockets in good condition, fixing them with an O-ring and a locking pin where the spindle makes this possible.
Do not use any hand sockets. No joints and extensions should be used, as they affect the efficiency of the wrench and result in
an increased risk of breakdowns. Therefore, we recommend using long impact sockets only when needed. Do not use the tool
improperly, as it might work too quickly, thus causing the accessories to be ejected.
RISKS RELATED TO WORKING CONDITIONS
Mind too long hoses left at the work station; stumbling and falling is likely to result in severe injury. High noise levels may result in
permanent loss of hearing; wear ear protection, as recommended by the employer and/or the regulations. Stay in a safe, well-
balanced position. Repetitive movements and awkward positions combined with vibrations may cause your hands and arms to
be harmed; special precautions should be taken. Do not breathe dust and waste; partially protect yourself with a filtering mask.
Both the workers and the maintainers must be physically fit for the size, weight and power of this tool. This tool was not designed
to be used in areas exposed to the risk of explosion and is not so insulated as to come into contact with power sources.
OTHER SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
This tool and its parts and accessories must not be modified and/or tampered with. The building material of this tool may be subject
to wear. Working with compressed air tools may result in high vibrations; therefore, take any precautions needed.
Prevent your hands from being trapped between the tool and any object.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT SAFETY REFER TO THE FOLLOWING:
The documents, information and instructions supplied with this tool; The employer, trade associations and/or trade unions;
The EEC Council and/or local authorities "Safety Requirements for Hand Held Non-Electric Tools",
available at: European Committee for Standardization, Rue de
Stassart 36, 1050 Brussels, Belgium.
REQUIREMENTS FOR PROPER AIR CONNECTION
Feed the tool with clean air, free from water or condensate, at a pressure of 6.0 bar, as measured at the air inlet, while the tool
is working. An excessively high pressure results in a shorter life for the mechanical parts and may cause people to be severely
harmed. Connect the tool to the feeding plant, using accessories of the same size as that shown in the enclosed drawing. Do
not fix any quick couplers directly into the air inlet. Consult the instructions to connect the accessories properly. Consult the
specifications in this manual.
