IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Read and understand all of the safety precautions, warnings and operating instructions in the Instruction Manual before operating or maintaining this power tool. Most accidents that result from power tool operation and maintenance are caused by the failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing a potentially hazardous situation before it occurs, and by observing appropriate safety procedures. Basic safety precautions are outlined in the “SAFETY” section of this Instruction Manual and in the sections which contain the operation and maintenance instructions. Hazards that must be avoided to prevent bodily injury or machine damage are identified by WARNINGS on the power tool and in this Instruction Manual. NEVER use this power tool in a manner that has not been specifically recommended by metabo HPT.

MEANINGS OF SIGNAL WORDS

WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situations which, if ignored, could result in death or serious injury. CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situations which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or may cause machine damage. NOTE emphasizes essential information. SAFETY

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. 01Eng_WR16SE_US 2014.07.15, 17:1934 English A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non- skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

2. Use auxiliary handles, if supplied with the tool.

Loss of control can cause personal injury.

3. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces,

when performing an operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

4. NEVER touch the tool bit with bare hands after

5. NEVER wear gloves made from materials likely to

roll up such as cotton, wool, cloth or string, etc.

6. ALWAYS attach the side handle and securely grip

NEVER place your hands, fingers or other body parts near the tool’s moving parts.

8. NEVER operate without all guards in place.

NEVER operate this tool without all guards or safety features in place and in proper working order. If maintenance or servicing requires the removal of a guard or safety feature, be sure to replace the guard or safety feature before resuming operation of the tool.

Don’t force small tool or attachment to do the job of a heavy-duty tool. 01Eng_WR16SE_US 2014.07.15, 17:194To ensure safer operation of this power tool, metabo HPT has adopted a double insulation design. “Double insulation” means that two physically separated insulation systems have been used to insulate the electrically conductive materials connected to the power supply from the outer frame handled by the operator. Therefore, either the symbol “ ” or the words “Double insulation” appear on the power tool or on the nameplate. Although this system has no external grounding, you must still follow the normal electrical safety precautions given in this Instruction Manual, including not using the power tool in wet environments. To keep the double insulation system effective, follow these precautions:

than those specified. NEVER use a power tool for applications other than those specified in the Instruction Manual.

11. Handle tool correctly.

Operate the tool according to the instructions provided herein. Do not drop or throw the tool. NEVER allow the tool to be operated by children, individuals unfamiliar with its operation or unauthorized personnel.

12. Keep all screws, bolts and covers tightly in place.

Keep all screws, bolts, and plates tightly mounted. Check their condition periodically.

13. Do not use power tools if the plastic housing or

handle is cracked. Cracks in the tool’s housing or handle can lead to electric shock. Such tools should not be used until repaired.

14. Blades and accessories must be securely mounted

to the tool. Prevent potential injuries to youself or others. Blades, cutting implements and accessories which have been mounted to the tool should be secure and tight.

15. Keep motor air vent clean.

The tool’s motor air vent must be kept clean so that air can freely flow at all times. Check for dust build-up frequently.

16. Operate power tools at the rated voltage.

Operate the power tool at voltages specified on its nameplate. If using the power tool at a higher voltage than the rated voltage, it will result in abnormally fast motor revolution and may damage the unit and the motor may burn out. NEVER use a tool which is defective or operating abnormally. If the tool appears to be operating unusually, making strange noises, or otherwise appears defective, stop using it immediately and arrange for repairs by a metabo HPT authorized service center. NEVER leave tool running unattended. Turn power off. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop. Carefully handle power tools. Should a power tool be dropped or struck against hard materials inadvertently, it may be deformed, cracked, or damaged. Do not wipe plastic parts with solvent. Solvents such as gasoline, thinner benzine, carbon tetrachloride, and alcohol may damage and crack plastic parts. Do not wipe them with such solvents. Wipe plastic parts with a soft cloth lightly dampened with soapy water and dry thoroughly.

21. ALWAYS wear eye protection that meets the

requirement of the latest revision of ANSI Standard Z87.1.

22. When working in high places, check there is

nobody below. During operation, take care not to catch or tighten the cord accidentally.

23. Switch the reversing switch only after the motor

is stopped when it is necessary to change the direction of the rotation.

25. Confirm the tightening torque by a torque wrench

before use in order to ascertain the correct tightening torque to be used.

26. Attach the hex. socket securely onto the anvil. If

the hex. socket is insufficiently secured, it may drop out and cause an accident. For hex. socket attachment refer to "PRIOR TO OPERATION" on page 8.

27. Confirm whether the socket has any crack in it.

OPERATION should disassemble or assemble this power tool, and only genuine metabo HPT replacement parts should be installed. 01Eng_WR16SE_US 2014.07.15, 17:195

Clean the exterior of the power tool only with a soft cloth moistened with soapy water, and dry thoroughly. Never use solvents, gasoline or thinners on plastic components; otherwise the plastic may dissolve.

NEVER operate, or attempt any maintenance on the tool unless you have first read and understood all safety instructions contained in this manual. Some illustrations in this Instruction Manual may show details or attachments that differ from those on your own power tool.

APPLICATIONS 䡬 Tightening and loosening various kinds of bolts and nuts.

Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to the power source requirements specified on the product nameplate.

Ensure that the switch is in the OFF position. If the plug is connected to a receptacle while the switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating immediately and can cause serious injury.

When the work area is far away from the power source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness and rated capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as practicable.

Damaged cord must be replaced or repaired.

4. Check the receptacle

If the receptacle only loosely accepts the plug, the receptacle must be repaired. Contact a licensed electrician to make appropriate repairs. If such a faulty receptacle is used, it may cause overheating, resulting in a serious hazard.

5. Confirming condition of the environment

Confirm that the work site is placed under appropriate conditions conforming to prescribed precautions.

6. Mounting the socket (Fig.2)

Align the plunger located in the square part of the anvil with the hole in the hex. socket. Then push the plunger, and mount the hex. socket on the anvil. Check that the plunger is fully engaged in the hole. When removing the socket, reverse the sequence. Hex. socket Plunger Anvil Hole Fig. 2 01Eng_WR16SE_US 2014.07.15, 17:1989 English

1. Operation of switch (Fig.3)

The switch in this machine functions as a motor switch and rotational direc- tion selector switch. When the switch is set to R indicated on the handle cover, the motor rotates clockwise to tighten the bolt. When the switch is set to L, the motor rotates counterclock- wise to loosen the bolt. When the switch is released, the motor stops. CAUTION: Be sure to turn the switch OFF and wait until the motor completely stops be- fore changing the direction of wrench revolution. Switching while the motor is rotating will result in burning the motor.

2. Tightening and loosening bolts

A hex. socket matching the bolt or nut must first be selected. Then mount the socket on the anvil, and grip the nut to be tightened with the hex. socket. Hold- ing the wrench in line with the bolt, press the power switch to impact the nut for several seconds. If the nut is only loosely fitted to the bolt, the bolt may turn with the nut, therefore preventing proper tightening. In this case, stop impact on the nut and hold the bolt head with a wrench before restarting impact, or manually tighten the bolt and nut to prevent them slipping.

3. Tightening Mode Switching Function (Fig.4)

Each press of the High-Low Switch cycles through 4 varying levels of tightening. Depending on the task, use this mode to adjust the tightening strength. (Table 1) Fig. 3 Switch High-Low Switch High-Low Indicator Lamp Low Medium High Maximum Fig. 4 01Eng_WR16SE_US 2014.07.15, 17:19910 English OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS

1. Confirm the line voltage (Fig. 5)

The available tightening torque is in- fluenced by line voltage. Reduced line voltage lowers the available tightening torque. For example, if you use a 120 V type wrench on a 110 V line the available tightening torque will be reduced to 70 to 90%. When extending the power cord, use an extension cord which is as short as possible. When the line volt- age is low and a long extension cord is needed a step up transformer should be used. The relation between the line voltage and the tightening torque are shown in the figures.

2. Do not touch the bumper or hammer case during continuous operation

The bumper and hammer case become hot during continuous screw tightening so be careful not to touch them at that time.

3. Work at a tightening torque suitable for the bolt under impact

The optimum tightening torque for nuts and bolts differs with material and size of the nuts and bolts. An excessively large tightening torque for a small bolt may stretch or break the bolt. The tightening torque increases proportionally to the operating time. Use the correct operating time for the bolt. Fig. 5

4. Selecting the socket to be matched to the bolt

Be sure to use a socket which is matched to the bolt to be tightened. Using an improper socket will result not only in insufficient tightening but also in damage to the socket or nut. A worn or deformed hex. or square-holed socket will not give an adequate tight- ness for fitting to the nut or anvil, consequently resulting in loss of tightening torque. Pay attention to wear of socket holes, and replace before further wear has develops. Matching socket and bolt sizes are shown in Table 3. The numerical value of a socket designation denotes the side-to-side distance (S) of its hex. hole.

Hold the Impact Wrench firmly with both hands by the body handle and the side handle. In this case hold the wrench in line with the bolt. It is not necessary to push the wrench very hard. Hold the wrench with a force just sufficient to counteract the impact force.

6. Confirm the tightening torque

The following factors contribute to a reduction of the tightening torque. So con- firm the actual tightening torque needed by screwing up some bolts before the job with a hand torque wrench. Factors affecting the tightening torque are as follows. (1) Line voltage: The tightening torque decreases when the line voltage becomes low. (See Fig. 5) (2) Operating time: The tightening torque increases when the operating time increases. But the tight- ening torque does not increase above a certain value even if the tool is driven for a long time. (See Fig. 5) (3) Diameter of bolt: The tightening torque differs with the diameter of the bolt as shown in Fig. 5. Generally a larger diameter bolt has a larger tightening torque. (4) Tightening conditions: The tightening torque differs according to the torque ratio; class, and length of bolts even when bolts with the same size threads are used. The tightening torque also differs according to the condition of the surface of metal through which the bolts are to be tightened. (5) Using optional parts: The tightening torque is reduced a little when an extension bar, universal joint or a long socket is used. (6) Clearance of the socket: A worn or deformed hex. or a square-holed socket will not give an adequate tight- ness to the fitting between the nut or anvil, consequently resulting in loss of tight- ening torque. Using an improper socket which does not match to the bolt will result in an insuf- ficient tightening torque. Matching socket and bolt sizes are shown in Table 3. 01Eng_WR16SE_US 2014.07.15, 17:191112 English

7. The protection function

To protect the tool, the protection function will be activated, automatically shutting down the unit in the event of any problems. Table 2 describes each situation for which the aforementioned may occur. Table 2 *1 Excessive load protection function For excessive load conditions, the tool will shutdown to prevent damage. Discontinue the heavy load task and press either of the buttons on the switch panel to reset the tool. *2 Control monitoring function Press either of the buttons on the switch panel to reset the tool. Continual occurrences of this situation may be the result of damage to the tool. *3 Increased temperature protection function Automatic shutdown is activated to prevent damage from high temperatures. The tool’s internal temperature will increase for tasks involving the use of large currents of electricity, or when used in high temperature environments. In such cases, let the tool cool down for 10 to 15-minutes before continuing use. *4 Continuous operation prevention function Shutdown will occur in the event of continuous operation while the switch remains ON. High-Low Indicator Lamp Indicated Situation Flashing Fast repeated flashes Automatic shutdown initiated by Flashes on and off with excessive load (*1) 0.1-second intervals Slow repeated flashes Automatic shutdown initiated due to Flashes on and off with sensor detection trouble (*2) 1-second intervals Automatic shutdown initiated due to the tool’s internal temperature exceeding the specified temperature level (*3) Flashing during mode operation Automatic shutdown initiated due to approximately 5 minutes of continuous no-load operation (*4) 01Eng_WR16SE_US 2014.07.15, 17:191213 English

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING: Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug from the

receptacle during maintenance and inspection.

1. Inspecting the socket

A worn or deformed hex. or a square-holed socket will not give an adequate tightness to the fitting between the nut or anvil, consequently resulting in loss of tightening torque. Pay attention to wear of socket holes periodically, and replace with a new one if needed.

2. Inspecting the screws

Regularly inspect all screws and ensure that they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be loosened, retighten them immediately.

WARNING: Using this impact wrench with loosen screws is extremely

3. Maintenance of the motor

The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.

4. Service and repairs

All quality power tools will eventually require servicing or replacement of parts because of wear from normal use. To assure that only authorized replacement parts will be used, all service and repairs must be performed by a metabo HPT AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER, ONLY.

5. Service parts list
