I have what I thought was a decent quality cambell hausfeld 1/2" gun which
is rated at 380 ftlbs. All fitting are 1/4" M style and hose is 25' 3/8" ID. It will not remove my lug nuts from my chev 1/2 ton truck. I tried pressures from 90 up to 120 psi with no luck. It removed a few of them but some will not loosen at all. I am using 1/2" drive impact sockets as well. Anyway are these guns over rated, it is made in Taiwan. I noticed some ingersoll rand and even sears brands rated up to 600-700 ftlbs, is this what I need. I tried a friends Chicago pneumatic and it would not spin the nuts either. Also there is an Allen set screw type plug in the side of the gun and it says oil, how do you know how much to put in? Thanks |
