(quoted from post at 14:21:01 08/31/18) Been using a HF red and black colored, ?" 450 ft-lbs, 100 PSI air pressure, for at least 20 years. Never a problem. One rule of mine is to keep it lubed. I bought a quart of impact tool lube when I bought the hammer and the nozzle fits into the air intake. Just turn the can upside down, give it a squeeze, remove, hook to air, gun it several times to blow out the excess and get after it. Cost was somewhere around 60 bucks......sure beat what the name brands cost. While you are at it they have a full set of Deep Impact sockets to go with it for about $60 too. Still have the same set of them.
Impact tools are a gotta have for me. A neat thing about them is on things like flywheel nuts. Grasp the flywheel in one hand impact in the other, give her a punch of the trigger and wala....nuts off! Lawnmower blades, same thing.....grasp the blade in one hand impact in the other hit the trigger and wala, bolts out.
[b:ef1642bf9f]On lug nuts I run them down and watch the socket while hammering. The socket will run down fast then almost stop but turn slightly...continue watching it and when it stops turning while you are whacking, at the instant it stops turning, about half a dozen whacks more and stop. Have the pressure setting on the highest number and air compressor no less than 90 psig..........has worked for me for as long as I can remember on any vehicle with lug nuts.[/b:ef1642bf9f]
On lawn mower blades, when reinstalling, same thing but when the speed abruptly, essentially, stops, half a dozen whacks and then stop on it.....never a problem with a loose blade for as long as I can remember.
