THESE MAY SHATTER WITH SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES. ONLY USE IMPACT SOCKETS DESIGNED FOR USE WITH IMPACT TOOLS. CAUTION: ALWAYS TAKE CARE TO USE THE CORRECT SIZE SOCKET FOR BOLTS AND NUTS. AN INCORRECT SOCKET WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE BOLT OR NUT. 1. Select the impact socket you require, which must be in good condition and fit the tool exactly. 2. Push the socket onto the square drive shaft. THE FORWARD/REVERSE/SPEED CONTROL WARNING: WAIT UNTIL THE ANVIL HAS STOPPED ROTATING BEFORE OPERATING THE FORWARD/REVERSE CONTROL. Forward/Reverse rotation is selected by twisting the combined Forward/ Reverse knob/speed regulator in the direction shown by the arrow(s) on the the wrench. 1. For normal tightening, the wrench should be operated in the forward (F) direction at position 1, 2 or 3. 2. For loosening, the wrench will be operated in the reverse (R) direction. 8 Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com OPERATING THE IMPACT WRENCH 1. Locate the socket over the nut to be tightened or loosened. 2. Squeeze the trigger to start the wrench. 3. Release the trigger switch to stop the wrench. · The anvil will continue to rotate very briefly after the trigger has been released. ADJUSTING THE SPEED 1. To adjust the speed, set the tool to one of the 3 settings available. (Setting 1- Low, 3 - High) · These numbers are only for reference and do not denote a specific amount of power. For maximum power when removing stubborn nuts, turn the impact wrench to its highest setting. IMPORTANT: Where the torque setting is critical, the final tightening of nuts or bolts, must be by hand using a properly calibrated torque wrench. LOOSENING A WHEEL NUT 1. Remove any wheel trim, before selecting the appropriate socket and placing firmly on the square drive of the wrench. 2. With the FORWARD/NEUTRAL/REVERSE switch in the REVERSE running position, and holding the wrench firmly in BOTH HANDS, pull the trigger. The nut will be impacted repeatedly until it is loosened. IMPORTANT! Release the trigger as soon as the nut begins to loosen. 3. Jack up the vehicle according to the vehicles handbook so that the wheel is clear of the ground, then proceed to fully undo the wheel nuts. 4. Soak rusted nuts in penetrating oil, and break rust seal before twisting off with the wrench. WARNING: ENSURE THAT THE CORRECT SOCKET IS BEING USED FOR THE NUTS ON YOUR PARTICULAR VEHICLE. AN INCORRECT SOCKET SIZE IS LIKELY TO DAMAGE THE HEADS OF THE BOLTS/NUTS. 9 Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com TIGHTENING A NUT 1.
