5. HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION9. BASIC OPERATION
Warning!
● There is a risk of crushing by torque between a reaction bar and the workpiece.
● There is a risk of loose clothing, hair etc., being caught in the rotating spindle of the
power supply tool.
● There is a risk of being injured if hands are not kept away from the reaction bar,
specially observed when unscrewing in confined work spaces.
● There is a risk of being injured if hands are not kept away from the impact socket.
● There is a risk of danger to persons from high speed splinters being emitted from
impact wrenches in the case of socket failure. Only use properly hardened impact
sockets with this machine.

Wait for the machine to stop. Unless the machine is fitted with a safety brake; some parts may
continue to move due to momentum. Wait for all parts to stop; then unplug it from the power supply
before making any adjustments, carrying out maintenance operations or just finishing using the tool.
Remove and check setting tools. Some machinery requires the use of additional tools or keys to
set, load or adjust the power tool. Before starting the power tool always check to make certain they
have been removed and are safely away from the machine.
Prevent unintentional starting. Before plugging any machine in to the power supply, make sure the
switch is in the OFF position. If the machine is portable; do not hold the machine near the switch and
take care when putting the machine down; that nothing can operate the switch.
Carefully select an extension lead. Some machines are not suitable for use with extension leads. If
the tool is designed for use outdoors; use an extension lead also suitable for that environment. When
using an extended lead, select one capable of handling the current (amps) drawn by the machine in
use. Fully extend the lead regardless of the distance between the power supply and the tool. Excess
current (amps) and a coiled extension lead will both cause the cable to heat up and can result in fire.
Concentrate and stay alert. Distractions are likely to cause an accident. Never operate a power tool
if you are under the influence of drugs (prescription or otherwise), including alcohol or if you are
feeling tired. Being disorientated will result in an accident.
Have this tool repaired by a qualified person. This tool is designed to confirm to the relevant
international and local standards and as such should be maintained and repaired by someone
qualified; using only original parts supplied by the manufacturer: This will ensure the tool remains safe
to use.
5.2 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR IMPACT WRENCHES
Important: Draper Tools Limited recommends that this machine should not be modified or used for
any application other than that for which it was designed. If you are unsure of its relative applications
do not hesitate to contact us in writing and we will advise you.
– Power tools shall not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres unless specifically designed
for that purpose.
– Unexpected tool movement due to reaction forces or breakage of inserted tool or reaction bar
may cause injuries.
– Power tools shall be isolated from the energy source before changing or adjusting the inserted
tool.
9.1 INSTALLING AND REMOVING
SOCKETS – FIG.4
This wrench is supplied with a 1/2" Square Drive
.
Note: This product is equipped with an electric
brake. Never use any sockets or accessories that
are not hardened for impact use.
Never use standard chrome vanadium steel
sockets which can shatter and can cause
personal injury.
To fit a socket:
– Push fit the socket over the anvil. The friction
based ring holds the socket securely in place.
To remove a socket:
– Pull the socket away from the anvil to remove.
Note: Extra effort may be required when fitting and
removing brand new sockets on their initial useage.
9.2 ROTATIONAL DRIVE SELECTION –
FIG.5
The forward/reverse drive selector switch
determines the direction of rotation of the drive, i.e.
clockwise or anticlockwise.
To alter the direction of rotation:
– Stop the machine and push switch
to the left
or right.
– When the direction switch is pushed to the left,
the drive will rotate clockwise.
– When the switch is pushed to the right, the drive
will rotate anticlockwise.
– Before operation, check that the switch is set in
the required position. Do not change the
direction of rotation until the wrench comes to a
complete stop.
– When the wrench is not in use move the
direction switch to the neutral position (the
middle setting) to lock the trigger out.
Note: Failure to use the neutral position may
activate the trigger inadvertently. This inadvertent
operation may cause the wrench to become
damaged.
FIG.5
FIG.4
– Use only sockets and adaptors which are in good condition and are intended for use with
impact wrenches.
– Adopt a suitable posture to counteract normal or unexpected movement of the power tool due
to reaction forces from the power assembly tool.
– Impact wrenches are not torque wrenches and are not designed or capable of installing fasteners
to a specified torque. For fasteners requiring a specific torque, install the fastener to well below the
required value then complete the task with a hand torque wrench to avoid damaging the fastener
or workpiece.
