Symptom Possible Cause(s) Corrective Action
Tool runs slowly or will not
operate
1. Grit or gum in tool 1. Flush the tool with air tool oil, gum solvent,
or an equal mixture of SAE 10 motor oil
and kerosene. If air tool oil is not used,
lubricate the tool after cleaning
2. No oil in tool 2. Lubricate the tool according to the
lubrication instructions in this manual
3. Low air pressure 3. a. Adjust the regulator on the tool to
the maximum setting
b. Adjust the compressor regulator to tool
maximum while the tool is running
free
4. Air hose leaks 4. Tighten and seal hose fittings if leaks are
found
5. Pressure drops 5. a. Be sure the hose is the proper size.
Long hoses or tools using large volumes
of air may require a hose with an I.D.
of 1/2 inch or larger depending on the
total length of the hose
b. Do not use a multiple number of hoses
connected together with quick connect
fittings. This causes additional pressure
drops and reduces the tool power.
Directly connect the hoses together
6. Worn ball bearing in motor 6. Remove and inspect bearing for rust, dirt
and grit or worn race. Replace or clean and
regrease bearing with bearing grease
Moisture blowing out of tool 1. Water in tank 1. Drain tank. (See air compressor manual).
Oil tool and run until no water is evident.
Oil tool again and run 1-2 seconds
2. Water in the air lines/hoses 2. a. Install a water separator/filter.
NOTE: Separators only work properly when
the air passing through the separator is
cool. Locate the separator/filter as far as
possible from the compressor
b. Install an air dryer
c. If the original separator will not
separate all the water from the air,
install a belt air filter
Troubleshooting Chart
Stop using tool immediately if any of the following problems occur. Serious personal injury could occur.
Any repairs or replacements must be done by a Qualified Service Person or Authorized Service Center.
STORAGE
The impact wrench must be lubricated
before storing. Follow the air motor
lubrication instructions with an
exception to step 4. Only run the impact
wrench for 2 to 3 seconds instead of 20
to 30 seconds because more oil needs
to remain in the impact wrench when
storing. The tool should be stored in a
cool dry place.
