Operation  
1. Install a standard 1/4” Air Connector (not included) to the Air Inlet (36). First wrap  
the threaded portion of the 1/4” air connector with pipe thread seal tape before  
threading it into the Air Inlet (36).Tighten securely.  
2. Attach a standard quick connector (not included) to your 3/8” air pressure source  
hose.Then attach the air hose to the Air Impact Wrench.  
NOTE: If you are not using an automatic in-line oiler, add a few drops of pneumatic oil  
to the Air Inlet (36) before attaching the air hose. Add a few more drops of oil after  
every hour of continual use.  
3. Set the air pressure regulator on your air compressor at 90 psi.  
WARNING: Do not exceed the recommended pressure of 90 psi. Damage to your  
tool, and possible personal injury and/or property damage may result.  
4. Check the air line and its connections for air leaks. Make note of these, and  
repair them before using this tool.  
NOTE: Turn off your air compressor and disconnect the air pressure hose before  
changing sockets or making any adjustments to this tool. Severe injury or property  
damage may otherwise result.  
WARNING:This tool generates considerable torque when in use.Always hold the tool  
with both hands when using, and brace yourself to resist the torque which will be  
delivered to the work piece.  
5. Select the appropriate size 3/8” square drive impact socket (not included) for  
your needs. Push and snap the socket onto the Anvil (9).  
Note: Impact Sockets must be rated for 10,000 RPM or greater.  
6. Set the direction of the Air Impact  
Wrench to “FORWARD” or  
“REVERSE”. Please see photo. By  
moving theThrottle LeverButterfly(5)  
to the right, you are setting the tool to  
operate FORWARD. You may control  
the amount of torque to be applied by  
rotating the Regulator (38) (See photo  
REVERSE  
FORWARD  
next page). There are settings from 1  
through 8, indicating increasing torque.  
Rock the Throttle Lever “Butterfly” (5)  
Throttle Lever “Butterfly” (5)  
to the left to REVERSE the direction of the tool.  
NOTE: In this manual, “FORWARD” refers to clockwise rotation, and “REVERSE”  
refers to counterclockwise rotation of the Anvil (9). Always be aware of the direction  
of the threading of the fastener you are working on.While most fasteners install with  
clockwise rotation, some threads are intentionally the reverse.  
SKU 93100 For technical questions please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 5  
 
NOTE: The actual torque delivered at each of the eight  
settings will depend on the air pressure supplied to the  
tool. We suggest that you test the actual torque by tight-  
ening a nut or bolt at each setting, then observing the  
resultant torque by using a mechanical torque wrench (not  
supplied).  
7. If installing a nut or bolt, set it as tight as possible by  
hand before tightening with the Air ImpactWrench.  
8. Place the socket (not included) over the fastener.  
9. Grip the Air Impact Wrench tightly with both hands,  
and rock theThrottle Lever “Butterfly(5) to the right.  
The tool will operate and tighten the fastener.  
Regulator (38)  
10. When the fastener is tightened, release the Throttle Lever “Butterfly” (5) , and  
remove the tool from the fastener.  
11. If possible, check the actual torque applied to the fastener with a mechanical  
torque wrench (not supplied).  
12. If removing a fastener, grip the Air Impact Wrench tightly with both hands, and  
rock theThrottle Lever “Butterfly” (5) to the left.The tool will operate and loosen  
the fastener (assuming that the fastener is a standard right-hand thread).  
NOTE: Always check to be sure of the thread direction of any fastener before  
attempting to install or remove it. If the fastener is a left-hand thread, rock the  
Throttle Lever “Butterfly” (5) to the right for removal.  
WARNING:If the fastener will not come off, first check to be sure of the direction  
of the thread. If you have the thread direction correct and the fastener will not  
come off, DO NOT INCREASE THE AIR PRESSURE to the tool beyond 90 psi.  
This may damage the tool. You may have to use penetrating oil, heat, or a  
mechanical wrench to remove the fastener.  
13. When you are done using this tool, turn off the air compressor, and disconnect  
the air hose. Put the Air Impact Wrench away in its proper storage place.  
Maintenance  
1. Your Air Impact Wrench should be kept clean and dry.  
2. When not in use, store your tool in a suitable place where it will not be exposed  
to water, corrosive materials, or undue banging around.  
3. If you are not using an in-line oiler, you should inject a few drops of pneumatic oil  
into the air inlet of the tool and the Oiler Screw (3) port after every hour of  
continuous use.  
4. If your tool loses power, or you notice air leaks, take it to a certified technician for service.  
5. All repairs to this tool should be performed by a qualified service technician.
