Operation (continued)
Note: Turn off your air compressor and disconnect the air hose when you are changing
sockets. After you attach the socket, attach the air hose and turn the air compressor on.
5. Select the appropriate size 3/8” socket for your needs.
6. Attach the socket (not included) to the Anvil (#18).
7. Moving the Forward/Reverse Button (#38) in a counterclockwise direction toward the “F”
will tighten, and moving the Forward/Reverse Button (#38) clockwise toward the “R” will
loosen.
Tightening
Note: Forward/Reverse Button (#38) set toward the “F”.
8. Tighten the nut as tight as you can by hand.
9. Place the socket (not included) over the nut you wish to tighten.
10. Grip the Rachet Wrench firmly and gently squeeze the Throttle Lever (#4).
Note: If the Rachet Wrench cannot tighten it to your satisfaction, do not raise the air pressure
on the compressor over 90 PSI. Pressures above 90 PSI will strip the workpiece and damage
the tool. Use appropriate methods and tools to tighten the nut.
11. When the nut is tightened, release the Throttle Lever (#4). Turn off the air compressor
and disconnect the hose.
12. If available, check the recommended torque specification for the nut. Use a torque
wrench to tighten the nut to the proper setting after using the Rachet Wrench.
Loosening
Note: Forward/Reverse Button (#38) set toward the “R”.
13. Place the socket (not included) over the nut you wish to loosen.
14. Grip the Rachet Wrench firmly and gently squeeze the Throttle Lever (#4).
Note: If the Rachet Wrench cannot loosen the nut, do not raise the air pressure on the
compressor over 90 PSI. Do not attempt to loosen the nut with the Rachet Wrench. Use
appropriate methods and tools to loosen the nut.
15. When the nut is loosened, release the Throttle Lever (#4). Turn off the air compressor
and disconnect the hose.
16. If needed, remove the nut from the socket.
Maintenance
1. Make sure your Rachet Wrench is disconnected from the air hose before attempting any
maintenance.
2. If you are not using an automatic oiler system, put a few drops of pneumatic tool oil through
the air line before and after each use. During use, add a few drops every hour.
3. Apply a few drops of oil to the Throttle Lever (#4), Pin (#5), and the Actuation Pin (See
Assembly Drawing on page 7) before each use.
4. Wipe the Rachet Wrench down with a lint free cloth after each use.
5. Make sure the Anvil (#18) is clear of dirt or debris. If possible, spray it with compressed air
before each use.
