Operating the Wrench

WARNING

Crushing Hazard

Keep hands away from the reaction areas during operation! The tool could entrap fingers or other body parts if not kept away. Moving parts can crush and cut.

NOTICE

Should a gap appear during use, stop operation.

If a gap appears between the Anchor and Reaction arm in this location, stop the pump and ensure the reaction arm is installed correctly.

Before you start the tightening or loosening operations, make sure of the following:

  • The square drive is installed correctly and is set to give the desired drive direction.

  • The reaction arm is installed correctly, with the correct orientation for the application.

  • The impact socket is the correct size for the application.

  • The impact socket is secured to the square drive with a pin and ring.

  • There are no hydraulic leaks. To test, cycle the tool 3–4 times to allow the pressure to build to the target value. Examine the system for hydraulic leaks.

  • For applications where the rear nut can rotate, make sure that a suitable backup wrench is available.
