5.2 Torque Operation

 

 
To operate the tool in a Torque Cycle: 

1.

 

Ensure the tool is in Torque Select mode (Figure 5.2-1. Also see Section 3.1 – Torque Select 
Mode). 

 

Figure 5.2-1: Torque Select Mode 

 

2.

 

Ensure the LED Display is showing the correct units (see Section 3.1.2 – Unit Select Menu). 

3.

 

Increment or decrement the displayed torque until the desired torque is displayed.  

 

Note

: The Display will increment or decrement by 10 units with a single button push, or by 100 units if a 

button is held down. See Section 3.1.1 – Setting Torque for more information. 

 

4.

 

The BC-RAD Select Tool System will immediately be ready to torque at the displayed setting. 
Place the BC-RAD Select on the joint system. 

5.

 

Ensure the Forward/Reverse Switch is in the Forward position. 

6.

 

Press and hold the On/Off Trigger. 

 

Note

: To stop the Torque Cycle at any time, release the On/Off Trigger. 

 

7.

 

When the BC-RAD Select reaches the selected Torque, the tool will stop turning. Release the 
On/Off Trigger.

Disassembling or attempting repair will void warranty.  

 

If breakdown, malfunction, or error occurs, contact W. Christie (Industrial) LTD Support (refer to Section

The LED Display may exhibit abnormal behaviour depending on operating conditions, frequency of use, 
or excessive wear on the Display Module.  

 

The Display Module is designed to withstand normal use over the lifetime of the BC-RAD Select Tool 
System; however, as a sensitive electronic device it is susceptible to damage caused by shock, moisture, 
or excessive force.
