8. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or
across running machines or air hoses.
9. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords and air hoses
periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized technician.The handles
must be kept clean, dry, and free from oil and grease at all times.
10. Disconnect air supply. Disconnect air hose when changing accessories or not in use.
11. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Check that keys and adjusting wrenches are
removed from the tool or machine work surface before plugging it in.
12. Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the trigger is in the Off position when not in use
and before plugging in. Do not carry any tool with your finger on the trigger, whether it is
plugged in or not.
13. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool
when you are tired.
14. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts or
mounting fixtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any part
that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician. Do
not use the tool if the trigger does not turn On and Off properly.
15. Guard against electric shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
16. Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical replacement
parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty. Only use accessories intended for
use with this tool. Approved accessories are available from Harbor Freight Tools.
17. Do not operate tool if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning labels
if taking prescription medicine to determine if your judgement or reflexes are impaired
while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate the tool.
18. Use proper size and type extension cord. If an extension cord is required, it must be of
the proper size and type to supply the correct current to the air compressor without
heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt and catch fire, or cause electrical
damage to the air compressor. Check your air compressor’s manual for the appropriate
size cord.
19. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a qualified
technician.
20. Compressed air only. Never use combustible gas as a power source.
21. Do not use a “cheater” or any other extension to increase torque on this tool.
Do not exceed the maximum torque rating for this tool.

It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are
factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by
the operator.

For best service you should incorporate an oiler, regulator, and inline
filter, as shown in the diagram above. Hoses, couplers, oilers, regulators, and
filters are all available at Harbor Freight Tools.

You will need to prepare a 1/4” air connector (sold separately) to connect to the air inlet
on the Ratchet. First, wrap the 1/4” air connector (not included) with pipe thread seal
tape before threading it into the Air Inlet (11). Connect the 3/8” ID Air Source Hose to
the Ratchet.
Note: If you are not using an automatic oiler system, before operation, add a few drops of
Pneumatic Tool Oil to the airline connection. Add a few drops more after each hour of
continual use.
2.
Set the air pressure on your compressor to 90 PSI. Do not exceed the maximum air
pressure of 90 PSI.
3.
Check the air connection for leaks. Disconnect the Ratchet from the air source.
