Warnings and Cautions: Safety First
!
▲ WARNING
Never use a hydraulic torque wrench without a hydraulic gauge to indicate the working
pressure.
▲ WARNING
To avoid personal injuries and/or equipment damage, be sure that all hydraulic
components are rated for 10,000PSI (700bar) operating pressure.
▲ WARNING
DO NOT exceed the allowable maximum torque of the hydraulic torque wrench.

WARNING
To avoid personal injuries, equipment damage and/or warranty invalidation:
DO NOT remove the shroud from the hydraulic torque wrench.
DO NOT modify any component of the hydraulic torque wrench.
DO NOT adjust the hydraulic torque wrench safety relief valve located inside the swivel
couplings.
▲ WARNING
Always use a pin to lock the socket with the square drive in order to avoid the socket
from falling off or damaging the square drive.
▲ CAUTION
Keep all hydraulic torque wrench components away from excessive heat, flame, moving
machine parts, sharp edges and chemicals.
▲ CAUTION
Avoid sharp bends and kinks when routing the hydraulic hose assembly. A bent or
kinked hydraulic hose assembly will cause severe back-pressure. This will also damage
the internal lining of the hose leading to premature failure. Replace a kinked or damaged
hydraulic hose assembly immediat ely.
▲ CAUTION
DO NOT drive over, crush or drop heavy objects onto the hydraulic hose assembly. Crush
forces may damage hose wire strands and applying pressure to a damaged hose
assembly may cause it to rupture. Replace all crushed hydraulic hose assemblies
immediately.
