FAQs
What is the maximum torque this tool can deliver?
The tool delivers a maximum torque of 75 ft/lbs or 101Nm.
What air pressure is required for optimal performance?
The tool operates optimally at 90 psi air pressure.
What size air hose connector does it need?
It requires a 1/4" BSP air inlet.
Can I use this tool for heavy-duty demolition tasks?
No, this is a mini impact gun designed for general automotive repairs and maintenance. It is not intended for heavy-duty demolition or extremely seized fasteners.
How do I maintain the tool for longevity?
Regularly lubricate the air inlet with air tool oil and ensure it is stored in a clean, dry place. Blow out debris after each use.
What is the free speed of the impact gun?
The free speed is 9000rpm.
Does it come with a set of sockets?
This product is the impact gun tool itself and does not include a socket set. You will need to use your own compatible 3/8" drive sockets.
Troubleshooting
Tool not providing enough torque
Check air pressure from the compressor (should be 90 psi) and air line for kinks or leaks. Ensure the socket is properly seated. For extremely tight bolts, manual leverage may be required.
Impact gun not engaging or running slowly
Verify adequate airflow from the compressor. Check the air inlet for obstructions. Lubricate the tool with air tool oil. Ensure the forward/reverse lever is fully engaged in the desired direction.
Difficulty switching between forward and reverse
Ensure the tool is not under load when attempting to switch directions. Gently tap the lever mechanism if it feels stiff. If persistent, inspect for debris around the lever mechanism.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Excellent for working in tight engine bays or undercarriage areas.
Variable speed control allows for fine-tuning of torque application.
Lightweight design minimizes user fatigue during prolonged use.
Easy and quick switching between forward and reverse.
Compatible with a wide range of standard 3/8" drive sockets.
Cons
Maximum torque of 75 ft/lbs may be insufficient for heavily rusted or overtightened fasteners.
Requires an air compressor and associated hoses for operation.
Vibration magnitude of 9.20 M/S2 could be a factor for users sensitive to tool vibration.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure your air compressor is set to deliver a consistent 90 psi air pressure.
Connect a 1/4" BSP air inlet hose to the tool's air inlet.
Briefly run the tool to flush any debris from the air line.
