4. Setup

4.1 Air Supply Requirements

This impact wrench is air-powered and requires a clean, dry, and regulated air supply. Ensure your air compressor can provide sufficient airflow (CFM/LPM) and pressure (PSI/Bar) for optimal tool performance. Refer to the specifications section for detailed requirements.

• Air Pressure: Typically 90 PSI (6.2 Bar) at the tool inlet during operation.
• Air Hose: Use a hose with an adequate diameter to minimize pressure drop.
• Filter/Lubricator/Regulator (FRL) Unit: Install an FRL unit close to the tool to ensure clean, lubricated, and regulated air.

4.2 Connecting the Air Supply

1. Ensure the air compressor is off and the air line is depressurized.
2. Apply thread sealant tape to the air inlet fitting on the impact wrench.
3. Connect the air hose to the tool's air inlet.
4. Connect the other end of the air hose to the FRL unit and then to the air compressor.
5. Turn on the air compressor and adjust the regulator to the recommended operating pressure.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Attaching Sockets

Use only impact-grade sockets with a 1-inch drive. Standard chrome sockets are not designed for impact use and may shatter.

1. Ensure the air supply is disconnected.
2. Align the square drive of the socket with the anvil of the impact wrench.
3. Push the socket firmly onto the anvil until it locks securely in place with the dual retainer.
4. To remove, pull back the retainer and slide the socket off.

5.2 Adjusting Power Settings

The CP5000 features 4-position power settings to control the torque output. Rotate the power regulator dial to select the desired setting. Start with a lower setting and increase as needed to prevent overtightening or damage to fasteners.

5.3 Forward and Reverse Operation

The convenient reverse valve allows for quick changes in rotation direction.

• Forward (Tightening): Push the reverse valve to the designated forward position.
• Reverse (Loosening): Push the reverse valve to the designated reverse position.

Always ensure the tool has come to a complete stop before changing direction.

5.4 Proper Usage

• Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
• Place the socket squarely on the fastener.
• Depress the throttle lever to begin operation.
• Release the throttle lever to stop the tool.
• For critical torque applications, always use a calibrated torque wrench for final tightening.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your impact wrench. Disconnect the air supply before performing any maintenance.

6.1 Lubrication

• Daily: If an in-line lubricator is not used, add 5-10 drops of pneumatic tool oil into the air inlet before and after each use.
• Weekly/Monthly: Depending on usage, the hammer mechanism may require grease. Consult a qualified service technician for internal lubrication.

6.2 Cleaning and Inspection

• Keep the tool clean and free of debris. Wipe down the exterior with a clean cloth.
• Inspect the air hose for cuts, abrasions, or leaks. Replace damaged hoses immediately.
• Check the anvil and socket retainer for wear or damage.
• Ensure all fasteners on the tool are tight.

6.3 Storage

Store the impact wrench in a dry, clean environment when not in use. Apply a few drops of pneumatic tool oil to the air inlet before storage to prevent internal corrosion.
