INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Your TORC, LLC. TORQUE/TENSION MACHINE is a power tool, and as with any
power tool, certain safety precautions should be observed to avoid accidents or personal
injury. The following tips will assist you.
• READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN AND WELL LIT
• CONSIDER WORK AREA ENVIRONMENT
Electrical Pumps should never be used in any atmosphere which can be considered potentially volatile.
If there is any doubt, use an air pump. Note: metal to metal contact can cause sparks, precautions should
be taken.
• AVOID PREMATURE TOOL STARTING
The Pump Remote Control is for the TOOL OPERATOR only. Avoid separate pump and tool operator.
• STAY CLEAR DURING OPERATION
In most cases, the tool will allow “hands free” operation. If the tool must be held or steadied during
operation, use alternative means of securing the tool to the application.
• GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK
Ensure the pump is properly grounded and the proper voltage is being used.
• STORE IDLE TOOLS
When not in use, tools and accessories should be properly stored to avoid deterioration.
• USE THE RIGHT TOOL
Don’t force small tools or attachments to do the job of a larger tool. Don’t use a tool for purposes not
intended. TORC, LLC. can develop custom accessories for your job to ensure safe and simple operation.
