Safety Warnings for
Impact Wrenches
Select the adequate sockets
CAUTION
• The tool is designed to work with
sockets specially designed for impact wrenches. Select the
adequate socket for the job. It will reduce the risk of severe
injuries and makes the job faster.
• Do not use sockets for hand tools.
Before operating the Impact Wrench
• Take your time assessing the job and before starting the
job double check you are watching all the caution
measures needed.
WARNING • Adjust the socket correctly into the
square drive.
DANGER • Double check the switch is in the OFF
position before connecting the tool. Otherwise it will
unexpectedly start running and cause severe injuries.
CAUTION
• Turn off and disconnect the tool before
replacing a socket.
• Verify all the sockets before using. Do not use a damaged
socket.
• Using a torque meter is recommended as an add-on to
the tool to verify torque in the nuts to be tightened.
While operating the Impact Wrench
• Hold the tool using the insulated gripping surfaces
when carrying out operations in which the tool may
come into contact with hidden wiring or its own
cable. The contact with a power conducting cable
transmits power to the tool's metal parts causing an
electric shock to the operator.
• Do not subject the tool to excessive force.
CAUTION • Hold the tool firmly. Never let go off
the tool while still running. Turn it off before putting it
aside.
• Do not exercise too much pressure on the tool to
make it run faster. The socket can get damaged and the
tool efficiency will diminish along with its useful life.
• Do not touch the socket
CAUTION
immediately after being used. Leave it cooling down
before handling it. Do not try to cool it down with
water or oil.
• Due to vibration and temperature increase in the
metallic parts, using safety gloves is recommended to
operate the tool.
• Using the tool long periods of time is not
recommended because the vibration can be harmful
for arms and hands.
• Restrain from setting the tool in a place containing
particles and/or dust immediately after being used.
These can be absorbed into the tool mechanism and
damage it.
• Wear hearing protectors complying with ANSI S3.19
Standard.
• Wear anti-dust mask and a dust extracting device if
necessary. Remember that working with materials such
as asbestos, leaded paint, additives, some types of
wood, metal o minerals is highly toxic.
• Use safety glasses complying with ANSI Z87.1.
