Operations Manual
Electrical Connections
Ensure there is correct power availability and use recommended amperage
listed on the motor nameplate. Failure to do this could result in motor failure
from electrical overloading.
Ensure correct electrical tagging and testing has been performed. Minimise
length of any extension cords, ensuring all power outlets and extension cords
have ground outlets. As electrical motors may spark, do not operate in the
area of combustible liquids.
Air Connections
Ensure you have sufficient airflow and pressure. You will require 60-100 psi to
operate the pneumatic pump. Check manufactures recommended air pressure
ratings on the pump.
Ensure correct rated pressure air hoses are used and have an internal diameter
of 19mm. A filter regulator, lubricator and water trap is recommended.
Functional (Operational) Check
Before using any Hydraulic Torque Wrench a function check must be carried
out.
Ensure the Hydraulic Torque Wrench is connected correctly.
Turn on the pump operating the Hydraulic Torque Wrench ensuring there are
no oil leaks. This is best checked at maximum working pressure 10,000 psi.
After ensuring there is no oil leaks, repeat this process with the Torque Safe
handle depressed, ensuring that the Hydraulic Torque Wrench does not drive.
Changing Drive Direction
To remove the square drive out of the Hydraulic Torque Wrench, press the
button in on the drive retainer, gently pull on the square drive removing it
from the spline in the head of the tool.
