The secret of using an impact hammer is to allow the hammer to bump the tuning pin to the proper position. Place the hammer fully on the pin, holding it loosely swing the handle to bump the tuning pin in the proper direction. For me, this method will move the tuning pin in very small increments enabling a nice fine tuning. Very tight or very loose tuning pins are much more difficult but what else is new.
