Product Information

Full details

The Einhell Car Impact Wrench is designed for vehicle owners and mechanics who need a portable and powerful solution for changing tires or performing other fastening tasks on the go. Its primary benefit is its 12V cigarette lighter power source, offering convenience away from a traditional power outlet. A potential caveat is its suitability for standard automotive tasks, as heavy-duty applications might require more specialized tools. This tool provides 350 Nm of torque, features forward/reverse rotation, an integrated LED, and a spirit level, all housed in a durable plastic case.

How is this impact wrench powered?

Troubleshooting

Wrench not powering on

Ensure the cigarette lighter socket is functional by testing it with another device. Check that the power cord is securely plugged in. Verify the vehicle's ignition is in the 'accessory' or 'on' position.

Insufficient torque to loosen nuts

Confirm the tool is set to the correct rotation (anti-clockwise for loosening). Ensure the 12V socket is providing adequate power. For very stubborn nuts, a brief application of penetrating oil or manual loosening with a breaker bar may be necessary before using the impact wrench.

Rotation direction switch is stuck

Do not force the switch. Ensure the trigger is fully released before attempting to change the rotation direction. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

LED light not working

Check the bulb (if replaceable) or the connection to the LED. If the LED is integrated and not functioning, it may require repair or replacement of the unit.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the Einhell Car Impact Wrench, plug the power cord into your vehicle's 12V cigarette lighter socket. Select the appropriate socket insert (17/19 mm or 21/23 mm) and attach it to the 1/2" chuck. Ensure the vehicle is safely supported with the parking brake engaged and wheel chocks in place before operating.

Compatibility: This tool is designed to work with any vehicle equipped with a standard 12V cigarette lighter socket. The included socket sizes are common for many passenger cars and SUVs.

Care: After each use, wipe the wrench clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Store the tool and its accessories in the provided plastic case to protect them from dust and damage. Avoid exposing the tool to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures. Periodically check the power cord for any signs of damage.
