Answer This Question
A: This impact is amazing, I'm not sure about the actual CFM's it takes, but it does everything I need it to do with a 3/8" line. My 3/4" drive requires a 1/2" line and doesn't have ther power of this little impact. I never need to use my 3/4" drive anymore.

A: Danny you will need a minimum of a 20 gallon compressor to ensure you have 90 psi at the gun and sufficient CFM. The tool uses an average of 5 scfm but the tank will make up for the lack of CFM the compressor produces. Anything less than a 20 gallon compressor will not have a high flow regulator on it and therefore will not allow the CFM or volume of air required though the regulator to the tool. Tool will then underperform.

A: Yes it does. I installed an 1/2 inch hose to operate mine that way it would get enough air. The gun operates great and always does what I need it to do. I have a 21 gallon compressor and it will drain fast with this gun so I have to wait sometimes for it rebuild pressure.

A: Yes, this is a great air impact gun and to get what it was designed to do then I would suggest using an air compressor that would support this air tool. That goes for any air tool, use the correct air compressor for your air tools.

A: Yes it is describing the two different orientations. This will only tighten down to 900 ft-lbs, but can loosen at up to 1295 ft-lbs. This is how the gears/teeth in the wrench operate.

A: The 900 is for tightening the 1295 is for loosening.

A: D- You are correct in you last statement. The 900 ft-lb. is the Maximum torque output and the 1295 ft-lb is the breakaway torque. Hence it will break a bolt loose that was tightened to 1295 ft-lb.
