Installation
Installation Requirements
Prerequisites
The tool, on which the 5G Connect-L ITB-A is to be installed, must have a serial number that begins with at least C. For tools with a serial number that starts with A or B, the motor flex card needs to be replaced before the tool can be used with the 5G Connect-L ITB-A. Please contact the nearest Atlas Copco service center for more information.
Installation Instructions
Installing Accessories

The disassemble of the tool or the accessories must only be performed by qualified maintenance personnel.

Make sure the battery is disconnected before starting to disassemble.
Required tools:
Adjustable wrench
Screwdriver
Loosen the front cap nut, using an adjustable wrench.
Remove the 4 screws on the two half-rings behind the cap nut. Remove the two half-rings.
Connect the flex cable of the accessory, to the USB port.
The USB connector can be damaged if not connected correctly. The USB connector must be connected so that the flex cable is folded over itself and not twisted.
Place the accessory, with the built in upper half ring, on the tool.
Fasten the accessory with the lower half ring, using the 4 screws included in the accessory box. Tighten with a maximum torque of 1.2 Nm.
Tighten the front cap nut with a maximum torque of 80 Nm, using an adjustable wrench.



Installing the Nano SIM card
Refer to the 5G Connect-L ITB-A User Guide for information on how to install the Nano SIM card.
Initial Configuration
Configuration
Refer to the 5G Connect-L ITB-A User Guide for information on how to configure the software.
Operation
Ergonomic Guidelines
Consider your workstation as you read through this list of general ergonomic guidelines to identify areas for improvement in posture, component placement, or work environment.
Take frequent breaks and change work positions frequently.
Adapt the workstation area to your needs and the work task.
Adjust for a convenient reach range by determining where parts and tools need to be located to avoid static load.
Use workstation equipment such as tables and chairs appropriate for the work task.
Avoid work positions above shoulder level or with static holding during assembly operations.
When working above shoulder level, reduce the load on the static muscles by lowering the weight of the tool, using for example torque arms, hose reels or weight balancers. You can also reduce the load on the static muscles by holding the tool close to the body.
Take frequent breaks.
Avoid extreme arm or wrist postures, particularly during operations requiring a degree of force.
Adjust for a convenient field of vision that requires minimal eye and head movements.
Use appropriate lighting for the work task.
Select the appropriate tool for the work task.
In noisy environments, use ear protection equipment.
Use high-quality inserted tools and consumables to minimize exposure to excessive levels of vibration.
Minimize exposure to reaction forces.
When cutting:
A cut-off wheel can get stuck if the cut-off wheel is bent or not guided properly. Use the correct flange for the cut-off wheel and avoid bending the cut-off wheel during operation.
When drilling:
The drill might stall when the drill bit breaks through. Use support handles if the stall torque is high. The safety standard ISO11148 part 3 recommends using a device to absorb a reaction torque above 10 Nm for pistol grip tools and 4 Nm for straight tools.
When using direct-driven screwdrivers or nutrunners:
Reaction forces depend on the tool settings and joint characteristics. Strength and posture determine the amount of reaction force that an operator can tolerate. Adapt the torque setting to the operator's strength and posture and use a torque arm or reaction bar if the torque is too high.
In dusty environments, use a dust extraction system or wear a mouth protection mask.
