Installing the torque arm
The tool torque should not exceed the specified torque range of each specific arm.
Do not use SMC 200 and SMC 300 with a bench stand.
Mounting on a bench
-
Find the optimal position for the operator to handle the torque arm.
-
Install the torque arm straight in front of the operator or alternatively to the left or right depending on whether the operator is left or right-handed.
-
Firmly tighten the screws in the holder that connects the torque arm to the bench stand. The bench stand is pre-drilled for fixing to a bench.
-
Attach the safety wire (see Spare Parts) to a second point that does not limit the working area.
Mounting on a ceiling
-
Put the mounting point straight above, or as close as possible to, the point where the torque is applied.
-
Make sure that the fixation point can handle the weight and the torque of the chosen torque arm.
-
Attach the safety wire (see Spare Parts) to a second point that does not limit the working area.
