Proper use

The impact driver is a handy DC tool designed to be connected to a motor vehicle‘s 12 V power supply for use in the automotive fi eld. It is suitable for fastening and releasing threaded connections on motor vehicles (fi tting tyres, etc.).
The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.

Technical data

• Max. loosening torque …………………………350 Nm
• Operating voltage …………………………….. 12 V DC
• Power rating ……………………………………….. 80 W
• Working range (max. thread size) ……………. M14
• Square drive mount …………….12.7 mm (1/2 inch)
• Weight ……………………………………………….1.7 kg

Danger! Sound and vibration
Sound and vibration values were measured in accordance with EN 60745.

• LpA sound pressure level …………………… 86 dB(A)
• KpA uncertainty ………………………………………3 dB
• LWA sound power level …………………….. 97 dB(A)
• KWA uncertainty ………………………………………3 dB

Wear ear-muffs.
The impact of noise can cause damage to hearing. Total vibration values (vector sum of three directions) determined in accordance with EN 60745.

• Vibration emission value ah = 4.27 m/s2
• K uncertainty = 1.5 m/s2

The stated vibration emission levels and stated noise emission values were measured by a set of standardized criteria and can be used to compare one power tool with another.  The stated vibration emission levels and stated noise emission values can also be used to make an initial assessment of exposure.

Warning:

The vibration and noise emission levels may vary from the level specified during actual use, depending on how the power tool is used, especially the type of workpiece it is used for.

Keep the noise emissions and vibrations to a minimum.

• Only use appliances that are in perfect working order.
• Service and clean the appliance regularly.
• Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.
• Do not overload the appliance.
• Have the appliance serviced whenever necessary.
• Switch the appliance off when it is not in use.
• Wear protective gloves.

Caution! Residual risks
Even if you use this electric power tool under instructions, certain residual risks cannot be ruled out. The following  hazards may arise in connection with the  equipment’s construction and layout:

1. Lung damage if no suitable protective dust mask is used.
2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection is used.
3. Health damage caused by hand-arm vibrations if the equipment is used over a prolonged period or is not properly guided and maintained.

Limit the operating time!
All stages of the operating cycle must be considered (for example, times in which the electric tools are switched off and times in which the tool is switched on but operates without load).

Before starting the equipment

Use only drive socket inserts which are suitable for the purpose and in faultless condition.
Note: This tool is equipped with a centrifugal clutch.

• When the drive socket insert fitted to the square drive mount is placed on the wheel nut/wheel bolt, this will result in the motor being loaded. The motor will run without the drive socket insert turning. Using the centrifugal clutch, the motor builds up torque and performs short impact movements on the drive socket insert when this torque is reached. As a result, the wheel nut/wheel bolt will be tightened or slackened.
• When the motor is not loaded, the square drive mount or the fitted drive socket insert will rotate. Caution! Never hold the square drive mount or the fitted drive socket insert with your hand. You could be injured by a sudden impact movement.

Operation

Power supply
Connect the 12 V power plug (Fig. 1 Item 7) to the vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket.

Direction of rotation switch (Fig. 1/Item 3)
The slide switch above the On/Off switch is for setting the direction of rotation of the impact driver and for preventing the impact driver from being switched on inadvertently. You can select between counter-clockwise and clockwise rotation.    To avoid causing damage to the gearing, the direction of rotation is allowed to be changed only when the equipment is at a standstill. When the slide switch is in the middle position, the On/Off switch is blocked.

On/Off switch (Fig. 1/Item 4)

Switching on:
Press the On/Off switch (4).

Switching off
Release the On/Off switch (4)

Working with the impact driver
Plug the required drive socket insert on the square drive mount. Select the correct direction of rotation on the impact driver.

Note

• The spirit level on the top of the driver (Fig. 1 / Item 2) helps you to fit the drive socket insert onto a wheel nut/wheel bolt in a straight position.
• The LED light (Fig. 1 / Item 5) will come on when the equipment is connected to the 12 V power supply. It enables the work area to be illuminated when lighting conditions are poor.

Tightening
Push the drive socket insert onto the screw head and actuate the On/Off switch. Carefully insert the bolt or nut in the thread before you move the electric driver into position. A torque of approx. 50 Nm per pulse is generated on standard bolts of size M12/M14. On motor cars, each bolt should be tightened with two pulses. Each belt should then be checked with one additional pulse. A total torque of approx. 150 Nm is thus achieved. Three pulses are recommended on heavy vehicles  (e.g. luxury cars, off-road vehicles, etc.). Each bolt should then be tightened in opposed order with one additional pulse. A total torque of approx. 200 Nm is thus achieved.  Check the threaded connections for signs of damage after tightening.

Danger!
Always check and retighten wheel nuts with a torque wrench that is set to the torque specific ed by the manufacturer of the vehicle in question.

Slackening
To slacken a wheel bolt/wheel nut proceed as described in the section “Tightening” but use the opposite direction of rotation. Several impact pulses will be needed depending on how tight the wheel nut/wheel bolt is seated.

Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Danger!
Pull out the 12 V plug.

Cleaning

• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far aspossible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the device. The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

Maintenance
There are no parts inside the equipment which require additional maintenance.

Replacing the fuse in the 12 V plug
If an overload occurs, the 15 A fuse in the 12 V power plug will melt. Unscrew and remove the top end of the plug and replace the defective fuse with one of the same type. Screw the top end of the plug back in place. Find out what caused the overloading.

Ordering replacement parts:

Please quote the following data when ordering replacement parts:

• Type of machine
• Article number of the machine
• Identification number of the machine
• Replacement part number of the part required
