Review on Wagan EL2288 12V Roadside Impact Wrench, 1/2 Inch Drive, 258 Ft-Lbs Torque Power, Tire Repair Tools With Sockets And Carry Case by Eric Trask

How to use this Impact wrench! I learned a lesson today, the impact wrench WILL NOT WORK work if you PUSH into the bolt you are trying to remove! Instead put the socket on the bolt securely, then squeeze the trigger. The unit will spin up then go clank!, To remove my tire lug, I had repeat this 6x but each time I saw the lug turning. NOTE: if you use this on a flat, clank it 3x per lug then jack your car up a bit so the tire is either on the ground lightly or above ground or use your tire lug wrench again with the tire off the ground. If you have the weight of the car on the flat tire, you could snap or bend the lug nuts and or damage your rim! This supposedly has about 100lb more torque than the Kawasaki which I purchased first, and I think it does have some extra power as the Kaw. did not loosen my lug at all, BTW I also noticed I pushed the wrench into my bolt for some reason and I thought I broke it. Moral of the story, put the socket on the bolt/lug but do not push into or down into the lug/bolt.I learned the pushing stops it by trying to remove the bolt on my motorcycle fork (if you need to replace your seals this makes it a piece of cake)! I pushed down and nothing was happening, luckily I took pressure off and then it worked, that's how I figured it out! I bet most of the I didn't work people made the same mistake as I just returned the Kawasaki for the same reason!
