Maintenance - Greenlee H8508 Serie Mode D'emploi

Operation (cont'd)
1. Start the power source.
Note: Allow the power source to run for a few
minutes to warm the hydraulic fluid.
2. Set the directional spool to the appropriate position
(forward or reverse).
Do not change the position of the directional spool
while the tool is operating. Allow the tool to stop
before changing direction.
Failure to observe this precaution can result in
property damage.
3. Grasp the handle. Place your other hand on the top
of the tool or on the auxiliary handle. This will allow
you to apply leverage while operating the tool.
4. To start the tool, squeeze the trigger.
• Variable torque models only: Use the variable
torque adjustment to achieve the necessary amount
of torque. Turn the variable torque output screw
counterclockwise to increase torque, or clockwise
to decrease the torque.
• All models: If 5 seconds of impacting does
not loosen a bolt, nut, etc., stop impacting and
use some other method of removal. Continued
impacting will cause severe wear on the impact
mechanism.
5. To stop the tool, release the trigger.
6. When the tool is not in use, stop the power source
to reduce heat and wear on tool components.
