The Release angle takes the tension off the motor, causing the tool to automatically be released from the bolt following a
tightening operation.
Release is set at the user’s discretion and may not always be required. Typically the user tests a bolt on a particular job to
determine the magnitude of the release angle needed. In typical applications the release is set between 5 and 7 degrees.
NOTE:
the Release angle is subject to minimum and maximum Angle Limits set in the settings menu.
When the user returns to the Home Screen they will see the release angle displayed and labeled in the upper right of
the screen. The Release angle selected is saved in the tool until changed to another value. Release may be used in
conjunction with tightening functions such as Torque, Angle, Snug, Turn Angle, Torque Check and Rotations.
When a non-zero release angle is specified it is applied after the tightening bolting function and always acts in the
opposite direction of the tightening operation.
