GENERAL SAFETY RULES
CAUTION: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY, AND/OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.
THE WORK ENVIRONMENT
1. Keep the work area clean and tidy. 2. Dress appropriately - Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Tie long hair
out of the way. 3. Keep children and visitors away - Do not let children handle the tool. 4. DO NOT operate the tool where there are flammable liquids or gases.
USE OF AIR POWERED TOOLS
1. Stay alert and use common sense - do not operate the tool when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication.
2. ALWAYS wear eye protectors when using the tool. Eye protectors must provide protection from flying particles from the front and the side. Ear protectors should also be worn.
3. DO NOT overreach - Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 4. NEVER use oxygen, CO2, combustible gases or any type of bottled gas as a
source of power for this tool. 5. DO NOT connect the air supply hose with your finger on the trigger. 6. DO NOT exceed the maximum pressure for the tool of 90 psi / 6.2 bar. 7. ALWAYS keep the air hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. 8. DO NOT fit the air tool to a stand or clamping device that may damage it. 9. Check hoses for leaks or worn condition before use and ensure that all
connections are secure. 10. DO NOT use the tool for any purpose than that described in this manual. 11. DO NOT carry out any alterations or modifications to the air tool. 12. ALWAYS disconnect from the air supply when:
· Performing any maintenance. · The air tool is not in use. · The air tool will be left unattended.
3
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

· Moving to another work area. 13. DO NOT use the air tool if it is defective or operating abnormally. 14. Avoid damaging the air tool for example by applying excessive force of
any kind. 15. ALWAYS maintain the air tool with care. Keep it clean for the best and
safest performance. 16. Quick change couplings should not be located at the tool. They add
weight and could fail due to vibration. 17. DO NOT force or misuse the tool. It will do a better and safer job at the rate
for which it was designed. 18. This air tool vibrates with use. Vibration may be harmful to your hands or
arms. Stop using the tool if discomfort, a tingling feeling or pain occurs. Seek medical advice before resuming use. 19. DO NOT carry the air tool by the air hose. 20. DO NOT carry the air tool with your finger on the trigger. 21. When not in use the air tool must be disconnected from the air supply and stored in a dry place out of the reach of children.

COMPRESSED AIR REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE USE OF COMPRESSORS AND COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY. A typical air line layout is shown below. If an automatic in-line filter/regulator is used, it will keep air tools in good condition but should be regularly checked and topped up with oil. CLARKE airline oil should be used and the lubricator be adjusted to approx 2 drops per minute. Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air as a power source.
5
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

Air compressors used with the tool must comply with the appropriate European Community Safety Directives.
The air hose must be rated at least 150% of the maximum operating pressure of the tool.
For optimum performance it is recommended that a 3/8" ID airline hose is used.
A build-up of moisture or oil in the air compressor will accelerate wear and corrosion in the air tool. Ensure any moisture is drained from the compressor daily and the inlet filter is kept clean.
If an unusually long air hose is required, (over 8 metres), the line pressure or the hose inside diameter may need to be increased to maintain air pressure at the tool.
Never exceed the maximum operating pressure for the air tool. It is recommended that air pressure to this tool does not exceed 90 psi (6.2 Bar) at the air tool when running. Higher pressures and dirty air will shorten the life of the tool due to faster wear and is a possible safety hazard.
Check hoses for wear or damage before use.

BEFORE USE
WARNING: COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE DANGEROUS. ENSURE THAT YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL PRECAUTIONS RELATING TO THE USE OF AIR COMPRESSORS AND COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY.
NOTE: Ensure the compressor is turned off. 1. Remove the travel plug and connect either a suitable hose directly or
using the male adaptor supplied. 2. If required, connect an in-line mini
oiler to the tool. · A mini oiler helps to prolong the
life of any air tool. 3. If a mini-oiler is not being used, run
a few drops of oil through the tool before use. It can be entered through the airline connector or via the hose at the nearest connection to the air supply. 4. Connect the other end of the hose to the compressor. 5. Turn on the air supply and check for air leaks. Rectify any found before proceeding. Set the working pressure to 90psi/6.2 bar for best performance · PTFE tape may be useful for
sealing threaded connections. Your air tool is now ready for use.

OPERATION
SETTING THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION
WARNING: ALWAYS WAIT UNTIL THE DRIVE SHAFT HAS STOPPED ROTATING BEFORE SETTING THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION.
To select the direction of rotation turn the direction control as follows.
· For tightening bolts/nuts, turn the direction control anticlockwise to F (Forward).
· For loosening bolts/nuts, turn the direction control clockwise to R (Reverse).
FITTING THE SOCKETS AND USING THE WRENCH
1. Select the socket required and push it onto the square drive shaft. · It clicks into place when secure.
2. Place the socket over the nut. · Take care that the socket is firmly engaged.
3. Squeeze the trigger against the body of the tool to start.
4. Release the trigger to stop the tool. 5. ALWAYS ensure the tool has stopped before putting it down. 6. When releasing very tight fastenings initially break loose by hand. Squeeze
the trigger and the air tool will complete the job. 7. If necessary, use penetrating oil to assist in freeing off rusted fasteners. 8. When assembling, start turning fasteners by hand, then set the rotation
forward or reverse. Apply the tool gently and squeeze the trigger to tighten with power. 9. Final tightening should be completed by hand to the required torque values.

DISCONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
1. DO NOT disconnect the air hose until the supply is isolated at a shut-off valve.
2. Once the pressure has been isolated, disconnect the air supply hose from the air tool.
3. Shut down the compressor at the end of the work session and drain daily as recommended.
STORAGE
If the tool is to be stored, or is idle for longer than 24 hours, run a few drops of CLARKE air line oil into the air inlet, and run the tool for 5 seconds in order to lubricate the internal parts. Store the tool safely in its box in a dry, secure environment. When storing, replace the blanking plug on the airline inlet once the airline has been disconnected. Avoid storing the air tool where the temperature is below 0oC.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE AIR TOOL IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE AIR SUPPLY BEFORE STARTING ANY CLEANING, OR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES.
DAILY
1. Before use, drain water from the airline filter and compressor.
2. If no line lubricator or mini oiler is used, ensure that oil is applied to the tool on a daily basis through the air inlet connection. Run a few drops of oil through the tool before use. It may be entered into the tool air inlet, (ensuring the strainer is clear), or into the hose at the nearest connection to the air supply. Only then should you operate the tool.
3. This procedure should be repeated after every two to three hours of use, or at the start of the working day.
WEEKLY
1. Check the air inlet screen filter for blockage and clean if necessary.
CLEANING
1. Keep the body of the tool clean and free from debris.
2. Grit or gum deposits in the tool may reduce efficiency.
3. After extensive use, remove the inlet screen filter and flush out the mechanism with gum solvent oil or an equal mixture of CLARKE air-line oil and paraffin. Allow to dry before use.
4. If the tool still runs erratically or becomes inefficient, and the air supply is of good quality, it may be necessary to dismantle the air motor and replace worn or damaged parts. You may prefer to take the tool to your CLARKE dealer if internal maintenance is required.
PERFORMANCE
Please note that outside factors may affect the tool's operation and efficiency such as reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the airline, moisture or restrictions in the air-line, or the use of connectors of improper size or poor condition which will reduce air supply.
