TIGHTENING A NUT
1 Start the nut by hand, ensuring it is not cross threaded, then with the appropriate socket installed on the wrench,
place it on the nut.
2. With the FORWARD/NEUTRAL/REVERSE switch in the FORWARD position, and holding the wrench firmly in BOTH
HANDS, pull the trigger gently. You can vary the spindle speed by modulating finger pressure on the trigger.
3. Run each nut up in turn until it is 'nipped' up only - do not tighten - do not fully depress the trigger. When all nuts
are nipped up, tighten progressively by pulling the trigger fully and allowing the action to operate for 3 to 4 impacts only to
prevent overtightening.
4. ALWAYS finish tightening with a torque wrench or suitable spanner. The weight of the vehicle will need to be placed
on the wheel to prevent it from rotating while the nuts are tightened. Ensure the final torque applied to the nuts meets the
vehicle manufacturers recommendations.
