Work in the best possible position so that you can react with both hands to any normal or
unexpected movements of the machine. Maintain a balanced body position and secure footing
in order to avoid improper strain and to be able to support the reaction torque of the machine).
Additionally observe the following:
• Operate the machine only after having carefully read the operation manual.
• Use impact wrenches only in combination with appropriate power sockets.
• Never use power sockets with worn out square drive. Prior to each application, check that the square
drive at the power socket and the square drive of the impact wrench is not worn out, or if there are
any fissures (cracks). Ensure that the power socket is properly seated on the square drive before
each startup.
• Before each startup, ensure that the reverse valve for rotation direction left and right is in the correct
position. Do not start the machine, unless the power socket is seated solidly and correctly on the
screw head or on the nut.
• Do not hold or guide the machine at the turning power socket.
• Consider enough space behind you when loosening screw connections, so that the operating hand
cannot be jammed.
• Use only extensions, adapters and joints, which are explicitly approved for the application with impact
wrenches.
• If the machine shows any signs of abnormal operation or performance, work must be stopped
instantly for maintenance and repair.
