NOTE:
When fastening screw M8 or smaller, carefully
•
adjust pressure on the switch trigger so that the
screw is not damaged.
Hold the tool pointed straight at the bolt or nut
•
without applying excessive pressure on the tool.
Excessive fastening torque may damage the
•
bolt/nut or socket. Before starting your job, always
perform a test operation to determine the proper
fastening time for your bolt or nut. Especially for the
bolt smaller than M8, perform the above test
operation to prevent the trouble on socket or bolt,
etc.
If the tool is operated continuously until the battery
•
cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for
15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery
cartridge.
The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of
factors including the following. After fastening, always
check the torque with a torque wrench.
1.
When the battery cartridge is discharged almost
completely, voltage will drop and the fastening
torque will be reduced.
2.
Socket
Failure to use the correct size socket will cause
•
a reduction in the fastening torque.
A worn socket (wear on the hex end or square
•
end) will cause a reduction in the fastening
torque.
3.
Bolt
Even though the torque coefficient and the
•
class of bolt are the same, the proper fastening
torque will differ according to the diameter of
bolt.
Even though the diameters of bolts are the
•
same, the proper fastening torque will differ
according to the torque coefficient, the class of
bolt and the bolt length.
4.
The use of the universal joint or the extension bar
somewhat reduces the fastening force of the
impact wrench. Compensate by fastening for a
longer period of time.
5.
The manner of holding the tool or the material of
driving position to be fastened will affect the
torque.
6.
Operating the tool at low speed will cause a
reduction in the fastening torque.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
•
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
•
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may
result.
Replacing carbon brushes
001145
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
