Konfigurazioa

Aire-horniduraren konexioa

1. Ensure your air compressor is turned off and completely depressurized before making any connections.
2. Connect an air hose (minimum 3/8 inch inner diameter) to the air inlet of the ratchet wrench. Use appropriate thread sealant on all connections to prevent leaks.
3. Install an in-line air filter/lubricator unit as close to the tool as possible. This unit is crucial for filtering moisture and debris from the air supply and providing necessary lubrication to the tool's internal mechanisms.
4. Set the air pressure regulator on your compressor to the recommended operating pressure, typically 90 PSI (6.2 bar).
5. Turn on the air compressor and carefully check all connections for air leaks. Tighten any leaking fittings.

Socket Instalazioa

Select the appropriate 1/2 inch drive socket for your application. Align the square drive of the socket with the anvil of the ratchet wrench and push it firmly until it locks into place. To remove the socket, pull back the detent ball or pin (if applicable) and pull the socket off the anvil.

With the air supply connected and regulated, position the socket onto the fastener. Press the throttle lever to activate the ratchet wrench. The speed of rotation can be controlled by varying the pressure applied to the throttle lever.

Norabidearen Kontrola

The direction of rotation (forward for tightening, reverse for loosening) is controlled by a switch or lever located on the ratchet head. Move this control to the desired position before operating the tool.

Torque aplikatzea

Ensure the socket is fully engaged with the fastener. Press the throttle lever to begin rotation. For final tightening or loosening of stubborn fasteners, manual force may be applied to the wrench handle after the air motor has stopped, using the tool as a standard ratchet.

Stopping the Tool

Release the throttle lever to stop the tool. Always disconnect the air supply when the tool is not in active use or when changing sockets.

Mantentzea

Lubrifikazioa

• Egunero: Add a few drops of high-quality air tool oil into the air inlet before and after each use. If an in-line lubricator is installed, ensure it is regularly filled with the appropriate air tool oil.
• Asteko: Inspect the ratchet head for signs of wear. If necessary, apply a small amount of lithium-based grease to the gears and moving parts within the ratchet head to ensure smooth operation and reduce wear.

Garbiketa

Keep the tool clean and free from dirt, dust, and debris. Wipe down the aluminum body with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents, as they may damage the tool's finish or internal seals and components.

Biltegiratzea

When not in use, store the pneumatic ratchet wrench in a dry, clean, and secure environment. Always disconnect it from the air supply before storage.
