Rubber Grip Handle (Fig. A)
This air tool has a rubber grip handle
thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) designed for improved comfort,
slippage reduction, and better tool control.
Variable Speed Trigger (Fig. A)
The variable speed trigger

allows the operator to control the
start, speed of operation and stop of the air tool.
1/4" Inlet (Fig. B)
The tool's 1/4" inlet
located at the bottom of the handle is

used for connecting an air supply with a standard 1/4" NPT
American thread.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, remove air supply before making any
adjustments or removing/installing attachments or
accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Attaching and Removing Square Drive Anvils
(Fig. A)
Your tool is supplied with two anvils, a 1/4" square drive
anvil
7
and a 3/8" square drive anvil
the corresponding sized sockets. To install an anvil just push
it into the square drive
until you hear a "click". The anvil
1
can be installed on the front or back of the head in order to
enable you to more versatility to get the tool into tight spaces
more comfortably.
To remove the anvil from the air ratchet, push the button on the
back of the anvil and slide the unit out.
Air Supply
The recommended hook-up is shown below. Pneumatic
tools operate on a wide range of air pressures. For maximum
efficiency and longer tool life, the pressure of the air supplied
to these tools MUST not exceed the rated PSI at the tool when
the tool is running. Using a higher than rated pressure will cause
faster wear and drastically shorten the tool's life. A higher air
pressure can also cause an unsafe condition and explosion.
The inside diameter of the hose should be increased to
compensate for unusually long air hoses (7.6 m). Minimum hose
diameter should be 10 mm (3/8") I.D. and fittings should have
1/4" NPT thread.
The use of air line lubricators and air line filters is recommended
to prevent water in the line that can damage the tool. Drain the
air tank daily. Clean the air inlet filter screen on at least a weekly
schedule to remove accumulated dirt or other matter that can
restrict air flow.
The tool's air inlet used for connecting an air supply has
standard 1/4" NPT American thread.

Prepping the Air Tool
WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Firmly grasp air hose
with hand when installing or disconnenting to prevent
hose whip.
WARNING: Risk of bursting. Too much air pressure causes
a hazardous risk of bursting. Check the manufacturer's
maximum pressure rating for air tools and accessories.
The regulator output pressure must never exceed the
maximum pressure rating.
•
Drain water from air compressor tank and condensation
from air lines. (Please refer to air compressor's
operation manual.)
Lubricate the tool. (Please refer to the Maintenance section
•
in the manual.)
•
Connect the air ratchet to air source with the hose of
recommended size.
Operating Procedures
Air Supply
CAUTION: This air tool requires lubrication BEFORE initial
use, also before and after each additional use.
WARNING: Use a clean lubricated air supply that will give
a measured air pressure at the tool of 6.2 Bar/90 PSI when
the tool is running with the trigger fully depressed.
Use recommended hose size. It is recommended that the tool is
connected to the air supply as shown in Air Supply.
Do not connect the tool to the air line system without
incorporating an easy to reach and operate air shut off valve.
