Instructions Before Use
READ CAREFULLY:
Most malfunctions in new equipment are the result of improper operation and/or
set-up assembly.
PREPARATION:
Remove torque wrench from shipping container.
INSPECTION:
Visually inspect all components for shipping damage. If any damage is found, notify carrier
and HTL immediately.
Working Pressure
The tool’s maximum working pressure is 10,000 psi (700 Bar). Make sure that all hydraulic equipment
used with this wrench is rated for 10,000 psi maximum operating pressure.
Hydraulic Connections
When making connections with quick disconnect couplings, make sure the couplings are fully engaged.
Threaded connections such as fittings, gauges, etc., must be clean, securely tightened, and leak free.
If tool operates backwards, couplings are reversed. HTL hoses may only be joined together in odd
numbers only, 1, 3, 5 etc or please contact HTL for bespoke lengths to suit your requirements.
CAUTION:
Loose or improper threaded fittings can be potentially dangerous if pressurised, yet, severe
over tightening can cause premature thread failure.
Fittings need only to be securely tightened and leak free. Never grab, touch or in any way come in
contact with a hydraulic pressure leak. Escaping oil could penetrate the skin and cause injury.
