This document is an Owner's Manual & Safety Instructions for the Bauer 1/2" Heavy Duty Electric Impact Wrench, model 1882E-B. It provides comprehensive information regarding the tool's function, technical specifications, usage, and maintenance.

Function Description:

The Bauer 1/2" Heavy Duty Electric Impact Wrench is a corded power tool designed for tightening and loosening fasteners. It operates with a rocker-type trigger that allows for both clockwise (forward) and counterclockwise (reverse) rotation, making it versatile for various applications. The impact mechanism delivers high torque for efficient fastening and loosening of bolts and nuts.

Important Technical Specifications:

  • Model: 1882E-B
  • Electrical Rating: 120VAC/60Hz/8.5A
  • Motor No Load Speed: 2600 RPM
  • Maximum Torque: 300 ft. lb.
  • Drive Size: 1/2"
  • No Load Revolutions per Minute (RPM): 3000 BPM (Blows Per Minute)

Usage Features:

  • Rocker-Type Trigger: The tool features a rocker-type trigger for easy switching between clockwise (forward) and counterclockwise (reverse) rotation. Pressing the lower part of the trigger activates clockwise rotation, while pressing the upper part activates counterclockwise rotation. It is important not to attempt to use both trigger functions simultaneously.
  • Socket Compatibility: The impact wrench is designed to be used with appropriate sockets (sold separately) that are pressed onto the anvil.
  • Power Connection: The tool requires a 120VAC/60Hz grounded outlet for operation.
  • Work Area Safety: Users are instructed to designate a clean and well-lit work area, free from children and pets, to prevent distractions and injury. The power cord should be routed safely to avoid tripping hazards and damage, with sufficient length for free movement. Loose workpieces should be secured with a vise or clamps (not included) to prevent movement during operation.
  • Personal Safety: Emphasizes staying alert, using common sense, and avoiding operation while tired or under the influence. Personal protective equipment, including ANSI-approved eye protection and NIOSH-approved breathing protection, is mandatory. Proper attire, avoiding loose clothing or jewelry, and keeping hair away from moving parts are also stressed.
  • Tool Handling: Users should maintain a firm grip with both hands on the tool (one on the handle, one on the housing) to resist starting torque and prevent injury. It is advised not to hold or touch impact sockets during use.
  • Torque Considerations: The manual notes that actual torque may vary based on thread condition and other factors. For critical components, users should verify applied torque with a mechanical torque wrench (not supplied).
  • Unintentional Starting Prevention: Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to a power source, picking up, or carrying the tool. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the tool on.
  • Storage: After use, the tool should be turned off, disconnected from the power supply, cleaned, and stored indoors out of children's reach.
  • Extension Cords: Detailed guidelines are provided for selecting and using extension cords, including recommendations for wire gauge based on amperage and cord length (Table A). Grounded tools require a three-wire extension cord, while double-insulated tools can use either a two or three-wire cord. Outdoor use requires cords marked "W-A" or "W".

Maintenance Features:

  • Regular Inspection: Before each use, a general inspection of the tool is required, checking for loose hardware, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect safe operation.
  • Cleaning: After each use, external surfaces of the tool should be wiped with a clean cloth.
  • Troubleshooting Guide: A comprehensive troubleshooting table addresses common issues such as the tool not starting, operating slowly, decreased performance, excessive noise/rattling, and overheating. It provides possible causes and likely solutions, including checking power connections, circuit breakers, thermal reset breakers, and carbon brushes.
  • Professional Service: Procedures not explicitly explained in the manual must be performed only by a qualified technician. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified service technician.
  • Carbon Brushes: Worn or damaged carbon brushes are identified as a potential cause for decreased performance and may require replacement by a technician.
  • Ventilation: Blocked motor housing vents can lead to overheating. Users are advised to wear ANSI-approved safety goggles and NIOSH-approved dust mask/respirator while blowing dust out of the motor using compressed air.
  • Vibration Safety: The manual includes a section on vibration safety, acknowledging that repeated or long-term exposure can cause physical injury. Recommendations include medical check-ups, avoiding use by individuals with certain health conditions, not smoking during use, wearing suitable gloves, using tools with the lowest vibration, including vibration-free periods, gripping the tool lightly, and maintaining the tool as explained in the manual. If abnormal vibration occurs, stop use immediately.
  • Grounding: Instructions for proper grounding are provided for tools with three-prong plugs, emphasizing the importance of a properly grounded outlet and warning against modifying the plug or using damaged cords. Double-insulated tools, marked with a specific symbol, do not require grounding and can be used with two-prong outlets.

The manual strongly emphasizes safety, with numerous warnings and precautions throughout, including the use of safety alert symbols (DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, NOTICE). It advises users to read all safety warnings and instructions before setup or use to prevent serious injury, electric shock, fire, or other hazards.
