7.0 Maintenance and Storage
Carry out basic maintenance on a regular basis to keep the torque wrench operating in a trouble-free
manner. Maintenance intervals are determined by the frequency of use and the operating conditions on
site.
Keep the unit clean.
After use, always retract the tool fully before disconnecting the attached hoses. Fit dust caps to the
couplers, every time disconnections are made.
Routinely perform a visual inspection of the tool for signs of damage.
Store in clean and dry conditions.
Apply lubrication as necessary
Lubrication
Lubricant: Molybdenum Disulphide Grease
Marine Grade Moly Lube is formulated not to wash out of the tool in areas where lubrication is critical.
Lubrication frequency is dependent on factors known only to the tool user.
Whenever lubrication is required, lubricate as follows:
1. Remove the Drive Plate, Ratchet, Segment Pawl and Drive Sleeves and wash the components in a
suitable cleaning solution, in a well-ventilated area. (See figure 6.3)
2. After drying the components, wipe a film of Moly Lube (Marine Grade) onto the wear surfaces of
both Drive Sleeves and the ends of the Ratchet.
3. Spread a light film of Moly Lube (Marine Grade) onto the inner face and both sides of the Drive
Plate.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT
pack the teeth of the Segment Pawl or Ratchet with lube. Doing so can
prevent the teeth from engaging properly.
