Motor
Your Snap-on tool is powered by a Snap-on built motor. Be sure your
power supply agrees with the nameplate marking.
Volts 50/60 Hz or "AC only" means your tool must be operated on
alternating current and never with direct current.
Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and
overheating. Snap-on tools are factory tested; if this tool does not
operate, check power supply.
Motor Brushes
This Snap-on tool uses an advanced brush system which auto-
matically stops the tool when the brushes wear out. This prevents
serious damage to the motor.
Switch
Pressing the BOTTOM part of the switch runs the tool in forward
(right hand thread) direction. Pressing the TOP of the switch reverses
motor direction. This allows "rocking" fasteners to break them loose.

SWITCH
Anvil with Detent Pin
To install a socket on the anvil, align the hole in the side of the socket
with the detent pin on the anvil. Press the socket on until the detent
pin engages in the hole. To remove a socket, depress the detent pin
through the hole, using a small, pointed object, and pull the socket
off.
Impact Time
Many variables exist that will cause the torque available on any
fastener to vary considerably. The optimum impact time is about 6
seconds.
Capacity
Your 1/2" impact wrench uses sockets with 1/2" square drive ends.
Be sure to sockets specifically designed for impact wrench use to
avoid damage to your sockets.
Maintenance
Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any
liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a
liquid.
