Safety Warnings and Precautions
WARNING: When using tool, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to equipment.
Read all instructions before using this tool!
1. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
2. Observe work area conditions. Do not use machines or power tools in damp or wet
locations. Don’t expose to rain. Keep work area well lighted. Do not use electrically
powered compressors in the presence of ammable gases or liquids.
3. Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let
them handle machines, tools, extension cords, or air hoses.
4. Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to
inhibit rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children.
5. Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment
to do the work of a larger industrial tool. There are certain applications for which this
tool was designed. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which it was
intended. Do not modify this tool and do not use this tool for a purpose for which it
was not intended.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in
moving parts. Protective, electrically non-conductive clothes and non-skid footwear
are recommended when working. Wear restrictive hair covering to contain long hair.
7. Use eye and ear protection. Always wear ANSI approved impact safety
goggles and hearing protection. Wear a full face shield if you are producing
metal lings or wood chips. Wear an ANSI approved dust mask or respirator
when working around metal, wood, and chemical dusts and mists.

8. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over
or across running machines or air hoses.
9. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords and air hoses
periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized technician. The
handles must be kept clean, dry, and free from oil and grease at all times.
10. Disconnect air supply. Disconnect air hose when not in use.
11. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Check that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from the tool or machine work surface before plugging it in.
12. Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the trigger is released when not in use and
before plugging in. Do not carry any tool with your nger on the trigger, whether it is
plugged in or not.
13. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool
when you are tired.
14. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts
or mounting xtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualied technician.
Do not use the tool if any switch does not turn On and Off properly.
15. Guard against electric shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.
16. Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical
replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty. Only use accessories
intended for use with this tool. Approved accessories are available from Harbor

labels if taking prescription medicine to determine if your judgement or reexes are
impaired while taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate the Wrench.
18. Use proper size and type extension cord. If an extension cord is required, it
must be of the proper size and type to supply the correct current to the compressor
without heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt and catch re, or cause
electrical damage to the compressor. Check your air compressor’s manual for the
appropriate size cord.
19. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a
qualied technician.
20. Compressed air only. Never use combustible gas as a power source.
21. This Impact Wrench should only be used with impact sockets and extensions.
Using any other accessories can cause the accessories to break, causing permanent
damage to the unit and severe injury to the operator.

Unpacking
When unpacking, check to make sure the parts listed on page 8 are included. If any
parts are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the cover of
this manual as soon as possible.
1. You will need to prepare a 3/8” air connector (not included) to connect to the Air Inlet
(40) on the Impact Wrench. First, wrap the 3/8” air connector with pipe thread seal tape
before threading it into the Air Inlet (40). Connect the 3/8” ID Air Source Hose to a quick
connect coupler (not included), and then to the Impact Wrench.
Note: If you are not using an automatic oiler system, before operation, add a few drops
of Pneumatic Tool Oil to the airline connection. Add a few drops more after each hour
of continual use.
2. Set the air pressure on the regulator to 90 PSI. Do not exceed the recommended
air pressure of 90 PSI.
3. Check the air connection for leaks. Disconnect from the air source.
Operation
For best service you should incorporate an oiler, regulator, and inline lter, as shown in the
diagram above. Hoses, couplers, oilers, regulators, and lters are all available at Harbor
Freight Tools.

Note: Performance of the compressor (if powered by line voltage) may vary depending
on variations in local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect tool
performance.
Warning: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual
cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be un-
derstood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be
built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

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.
4. Select the appropriate size 1/2” drive socket for your needs. Note: Use only impact
type sockets.
5. Push and snap the socket (not included) onto the Anvil (23).
6. To operate the Regulator Knob (17) and Forward / Reverse direction:
For Forward (clockwise) direction, set knob to the right. Note: There are
3 torque setting stops for Forward.
For Reverse (counterclockwise) direction, set knob to the left. Note:
There is 1 torque setting stop for Reverse.
7. Tighten the nut as tight as you can by hand.
8. Place the socket (not included) over the nut you wish to tighten.
9. Grip the Impact Wrench rmly with two hands and gently squeeze the Trigger (30).
Note: If the Impact Wrench cannot tighten the nut to your satisfaction, do not raise the air
pressure on the compressor over 90 PSI. Pressures above 90 PSI will strip the work-
piece and damage the tool, potentially causing the tool to fail, causing serious injury.
Use other appropriate methods and tools to tighten the nut.
10. When the nut is tightened, release the Trigger (30). Turn off the air compressor and
disconnect the hose.
11. If available, check the recommended torque specication for the nut. Use a torque
wrench to tighten the nut to the proper setting after using the Impact Wrench.
Loosening
Note: Set the Regulator Knob (17) to the left so that the anvil turns counterclockwise (reverse).
12. Place the socket (not included) over the nut you wish to loosen.
13. Grip the Impact Wrench rmly with two hands and gently squeeze the Trigger (30).
Note: If the Impact 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 Impact Wrench.
Use other appropriate methods and tools to loosen the nut.
14. When the nut is loosened, release the Trigger (30). Turn off the air compressor and
disconnect the hose.
15. If needed, remove the nut from the socket.
Refer to FIGURE 1 on page 6, and the Assembly Drawing on page 8.
Warning!! This Impact Wrench supplies powerful torque and is designed to be operated with
two hands. Failure to operate the Impact Wrench with two hands may result in serious injury.
