9.1 Shifting Between Modes
The jGUN Dual Speed Plus and the jGUN NutRunner / WheelGUN have two settings: High Speed and
Maximum Torque.
Fig. 23: High speed mode Fig. 24: Maximum torque mode
High speed mode:
Shifting into high speed requires holding the gear box body and twisting the collar backwards as
shown. The collar is adjoining the chrome part now (Figure 23
–
left photo).
Once engaged, the housing will rotate with the square drive at a much higher rate than the maximum
torque setting. Use this feature when you want to run nuts on or off studs in a quick and efficient
manner.
Working in the high speed mode a limited tightening torque is possible. This differs per model.
Working with this mode requires a good positioning of the reaction arm against its chosen support
point first, to prevent swinging of the arm.
Maximum torque mode:
To activate this mode twist the collar and move it forward towards the barrel of the gun (Figure 24
–
right photo). The collar will lock into place when fully engaged.
Operation during the maximum torque mode is similar to that of the single speed jGUN. The torque is
applied until the bolts reach the desired load for any specific application. See chapter 7.
NEVER SWITCH GUN MODES ON THE FLY
jGUN NutRunner & WheelGUN:
The jGUN NutRunner and WheelGUN are more robust than the jGUN Dual Speed Plus. The housing
is larger due to a more powerful motor. In addition, the WheelGUN has a special reaction arm to
tighten wheel bolts.
