Product Specific Instructions
General Installation Safety
Refer installation to qualified personnel only.
Hang the tool securely, by for example using a balancer.
When using a suspension yoke, check that it is in good con-
dition and correctly fastened.
General Operation Safety
•
Due to entanglement risk, do not wear gloves.
•
Be prepared of the reaction force which will occur
when the tool is used.
Always support the tool’s handle
securely in the direction opposite to the spindle rotation,
in order to reduce the effect of sudden torque reaction
during final tightening and initial loosening.
•
Never hold the drive, socket or drive extension.
•
Operators and maintenance personnel must be physi-
cally able to handle the bulk, weight and power of the
tool.
•
Serious injury can result from over-torqued or un-
der-torqued fasteners.
Assemblies requiring a specific
torque must be checked using a torque meter. So-called
“click” torque wrenches do not check for potentially
dangerous over-torqued conditions. Over-torqued or un-
der-torqued fasteners can break, loosen or separate. Re-
leased assemblies can become projectiles.
•
Use only power or impact sockets in good condition.
Do not use hand sockets.
•
When using a power tool, the operator may feel dis-
comfort in the hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other
parts of the body.
Vary between appropriate postures
throughout the work day, maintain a secure footing and
avoid awkward or off-balance postures.
•
Repetitive work motions, awkward positions and ex-
posure to vibration can be harmful to hands and
arms.
If numbness, tingling, pain or whitening of the
skin occurs, stop using tool and consult a physician.
•
Take caution when operating in confined spaces.
Be-
ware of crushing hands between tool and workpiece.
•
Handle the power tools carefully as dropping the tool
could result in tool damage.
Always check the tool for
cracks or other damage if the tools has been dropped or
hit any hard surface.
•
High sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss.
Use hearing protection as recommended by your em-
ployer or occupational health and safety regulations.
•
Ensure that the workpiece is securely fixed
.
•
Proceed with care in unfamiliar surroundings.
Be
aware of potential hazards created by your work activity.
This tool is not insulated from coming into contact with
electric power sources.
• Avoid using tightening strategies in applications outside
their limitations.
• Major changes in joint characteristics will affect the op-
erator reaction force.
• Consider that a joint failure or a tool error can cause sud-
den unexpected reaction force and possibly injure the op-
erator.
Tools containing a clutch:
Never use the product without
making sure the clutch releases. Immediately after adjusting
the clutch, check for correct operation.
Preventing ESD Problems
The components inside the product and controller are sensi-
tive to electrostatic discharge. To avoid future malfunction,
make sure that service and maintenance is carried out in an
ESD approved work environment. The figure below shows
an example of an appropriate service work station.
General Service and Maintenance Safety
Always keep the controller switched off, and removable bat-
teries removed, during service in order to avoid unexpected
start-up.
Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
Cleaning Instructions
Clean parts with a damp cloth. Only use water, no cleansers
containing solvents should be used.

vice as per current recommendations and for your particular
tool.
