The impact wrench is supplied complete with the following accessories:
–3 pcs.“CLIP-NR” retaining circlip for most common sockets with
grooved diameter between 47 and 57 mm (1.85 and 2.25 in.)
–1 pc.“CLIP-NR57” retaining circlip for sockets with grooved
diameter between 57 and 67 mm (2.25 and 2.64 in.)
WARNING ON THE USE OF ELECTRICAL EXTENSION CABLES:
The Impact wrench is fitted with a 1,5m long supply cable. Any extension cable used must
be in proper working order and have an Earthing connection.
The extension cable must be fully extended and not exceed 15m (50ft) in length. In order
to safely provide the maximum output, the extension cable must have 3 conductors, each
at least:
- 3x1,5 mm2(3x16 AWG) for the NR-13E
- 3x2,5 mm2(3x13 AWG) for the NR-13E-110
2. DESCRIPTION (Ref. to Fig. 1)

Always disconnect the power supply before any intervention on the machine, changing
accessories, maintenance etc.
Anyaccessory(extension,adapter,joint,socket)mustbespecifiedforusewithimpacttools.
The use of unsuitable accessories could lead to breakage.
3.2) Assembly / disassembly of sockets (available separately)
The wrench is preset to receive sockets available on the market having the following features:
– Specified for impact tooling.
– Assemble on to 25.4 mm (1”) square shaft with through bore.
Before use, always check to make sure the socket shows no signs of breakage or particular
wear. If the socket does not fit tightly on the square shaft this could result in a loss of power and
excessive wear of components.
To assemble the socket (Ref. to Fig. 7 page 52):
1Slide the socket onto the square shaft (08) lining up the bores of the socket and the shaft (Ref. to
Fig. 7a).
2Fully insert the central split pin of “CLIP-NR”into the through bore, ensuring the sprung arms are
correctly located in the slot around the socket (Ref. to Fig. 7b).
To disassemble the socket, extract “CLIP-NR”by simultaneous lateral pushing on both ends of the
sprung arms (Ref. to Fig. 7c).
Keep the “CLIP-NR” in a safe place to avoid loss or damage.

3.1) Control grip
The control grip has been designed to
provide easy and comfortable access to
the operating buttons both in vertical
and horizontal positions (Ref. to fig. 8,
9). Refer to fig. 2 and operate as follows:
Horizontal use - Hold the control grip so
as to use SAFETY INTERLOCK (15H) and
OPERATING BUTTON (02H).
Vertical use - Hold the control grip so
as to use SAFETY INTERLOCK (15V) and
OPERATING BUTTON (02V).
To avoid accidental start, the safety
interlock must always be pressed before
the operating button is activated.

3.3) Torque adjustment (Ref. to Fig. 3)
The wrench is equipped with a system which allows torque limitation
on tightening and loosening.
For particular requirements it is possible to vary the torque by means
of a 5 position selector (15).
To select different torque values, simply turn the selector in one di-
rection or the other.
Usually selector (15) is set:
–in the tightening phase on low torque settings,
pos. 1 - 2 - 3.
–in the loosening phase on high torque settings,
pos. 3 - 4 - 5.
3.4) Setting the rotation direction (Ref. to Fig. 4)
The rotation direction of the shaft is set using the 3 position
selector (07):
: right sense of rotation, to tighten.
: idle position (main shaft gears disengaged).
: left sense of rotation, to loosen.
Adjustment of selector (07) must always be carried out with the motor switched off or
idling, to ensure correct engagement of gears.
3.5) Operation
Before using the machine always check the correct functioning of the electrical safety
device (see § 3.6). Do not use the machine if the device functions incorrectly.
The machine must only be connected to correctly earthed sockets.
With the impact wrench placed on a flat surface, carry out the following in the order shown:
– Choose the socket appropriate to the work to be carried out and assemble it on the square shaft
(see § 3.2).
– Check that the nominal supply voltage corresponds to the value shown on the machine label
then connect the electric plug (06) to the mains.
– Push the“RESET”button of the electrical safety device (08).
– Make sure the torque selector (15) is adjusted to the torque setting required (see § 3.3)
– Set the rotation direction of the wrench (see § 3.4).
– Move switch (13) to“I”position.
– Lift the wrench and move it to the work location.

ENGLISH
– Position the socket over the head of the screw, bolt or nut, so it is completely inserted into the
socket (Ref. to Figs. 8 and 9).
– Keeping a tight grip the wrench increase the speed of the motor to the number of revs required
by using the operating push button (02): in this way the impact striker will come into action with
consequent tightening/loosening of the fastening device.
– On finishing the operation, release the button.
The impact wrench can be used independently or in conjuntion with the Cembre support trolley
(Ref. to Figs. 10, 11) and appropriate interface device (see § 6).
– The impact wrench can be used in vertical position with support trolley by fitting interface device
type KCS-NR .
– The impact wrench can be used in horizontal position with support trolley by fitting interface
device type KHOR-NR.
3.6) Safety device (Ref. to Fig. 5)
The machine is fitted by an automatic power supply
switch-off device that protects the operator against
accidental starting.
During the use of the machine, in case of sudden fall or lack of electric
supply, the device intervenes cutting the supply off.
In order to re-set the machine rearm the device by pressing the “RESET”
button.
Tocheckthecorrectfunctioningofthesafetydeviceproceed(08)asfollows:
– Connect the plug to the electricity supply.
– Press the button“RESET” to close the switch.
– Press the button “TEST” to open the switch and prove the automatic
switch-off function.
3.7) Warning
The mains supply cable must be in perfect condition and correctly installed, otherwise it must be
replaced immediately.
Shoulditbenecessarytoextendthemainscable,use3core(2phases+earth)cableofsuitablesection.
Never pull the cable to disconnect it from the mains supply.
Keep the cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
3.8) Protection fuse (Ref. to Fig. 6)
The machine is equipped with fuse (14) protection of
electric motor:
NR-13E: 16A (6,3X32) delayed action fuse.
NR-13E-110: 30A (6,3X32) delayed action fuse.

Never open the electrical control box when the machine is connected to the mains supply.
4.1) ORDINARY MAINTENANCE
Avoid placing the wrench on dusty or muddy ground.
After each day’s use, carefully clean the wrench with a cloth making sure to remove any dirt it has
picked up, paying particular attention to moving parts and the anvil zone.
Carry out the following operations at regular intervals:
– With the impact wrench in horizontal position, check the level of the oil in the gearbox/re-
duction gear through the transparent port (10) (Ref. to Fig. 12a), if necessary top up (see §
4.2.3).
– Check and if necessary tighten all nuts and bolts.
– Check the rubber shock absorbers which dampen anvil vibrations at the handgrip.
4.2) EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE
4.2.1) Checking the impact unit
The impact striker and anvil are subject to wear. Should a noticable loss of torque be detected over
intense and/or prolonged operation, check these components for wear.
4.2.2) Changing grease in the impact unit (at least once a year).
Under normal operating conditions, replace the grease in the unit at least once a year, to maintain
efficiency and performance.
Maintenance operations described in § 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 require qualified personnel.
4.2.3) Changing oil in the gearbox/reduction gear (every 4 years)
To top up or change the oil in the gearbox/reduction gear:
– Turn the impact wrench over.
– Using a 5mm Allen wrench, unscrew the cap with magnetic insert (T) (Ref. to Fig. 12).
– To change the oil, lean the wrench over to facilitate complete emptying of the oil.
– Carefully remove any metal residue from the magnetic insert (T).
– Add oil, MAX. 250 ml.
– Replace the cap (T) and screw it on tightly.
Ensure that used oil is disposed of in accordance with current legislation.
Always use clean recommended oil, see § 1.
Do not use old or recycled oil.
