Hold the tool firmly and place the impact socket over the bolt or nut. Turn the tool on and fasten for the proper fastening time.
The proper fastening torque may differ depending upon the kind or size of the bolt, the material of the workpiece to be fastened, etc. The relation between fastening torque and fastening time is shown in the figures. Proper fastening torque for standard bolt

Proper fastening torque for high tensile bolt

  • NOTE: Hold the tool pointed straight at the bolt or nut.
  • NOTE: Excessive fastening torque may damage the bolt/nut or impact socket. Before starting your job, always perform a test operation to determine the proper fastening time for your bolt or nut.
  • NOTE: If the tool is operated continuously until the battery cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery cartridge.

The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of factors including the following. After fastening, always check the torque with a torque wrench.

  1. When the battery cartridge is discharged almost completely, voltage will drop and the fastening torque will be reduced.
  2. Impact socket
    • Failure to use the correct size impact socket will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
    • A worn impact socket (wear on the hex end or square end) will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
  3. Bolt
    • Even though the torque coefficient and the class of bolt are the same, the proper fasten-ing torque will differ according to the diame-ter of bolt.
    • Even though the diameters of bolts are the same, the proper fastening torque will differ according to the torque coefficient, the class of bolt and the bolt length.
  4. The manner of holding the tool or the material of driving position to be fastened will affect the torque.
  5. Operating the tool at low speed will cause a reduc-tion in the fastening torque.
