Warranty
Product warranty will expire 12 months after the product is first taken into use, but will in any case expire at the latest 13 months after delivery.
Normal wear and tear on parts is not included within the warranty.
Normal wear and tear is that which requires a part change or other adjustment/overhaul during standard tools maintenance typical for that period (expressed in time, operation hours or otherwise).
The product warranty relies on the correct use, maintenance, and repair of the tool and its component parts.
Damage to parts that occurs as a result of inadequate maintenance or performed by parties other than Atlas Copco or their Certified Service Partners during the warranty period is not covered by the warranty.
To avoid damage or destruction of tool parts, service the tool according to the recommended maintenance schedules and follow the correct instructions.
Warranty repairs are only performed in Atlas Copco workshops or by Certified Service Partners.
Atlas Copco offers extended warranty and state of the art preventive maintenance through its ToolCover contracts. For further information contact your local Service representative.
For electrical motors:
Warranty will only apply when the electric motor has not been opened.

Overview
Applications
The MWR-300 TA is a mechanical click-wrench combined with an electronic torque transducer.
The MWR-300 TA are equipped with the ISM band radio interface (characterized by a frequency equal to 868 MHz / 915 MHz) for wireless connection with Focus 61.
The MWR-300 TA works with Focus 61, which defines the tightening programs for the MWR-300 TA.

Accessories
MWR Charging cradle
To recharge the battery of the MWR-300 TA with the MWR Charging Cradle:
Connect the MWR Charging Cradle to the AC power.
Insert the MWR-300 TA into the MWR Charging Cradle:
When the wrench is placed into the MWR Charging Cradle, the red, yellow and green LEDs (placed on three sides of the MWR-300 TA) flash alternately. This indicates that the wrench sets the internal offset (zero point) for the torque transducer and runs a quick self-test.
When the MWR-300 TA is in charging mode and the internal offset has been performed, the yellow LED of the MWR-300 TA is on and the Status LED of the MWR Charging Cradle is flashing (green colored).
When the charging process of the MWR-300 TA is complete, the Status LED of the MWR Charging Cradle is constantly on (green colored).
For more information on the MWR Charging Cradle functioning, refer to the MWR Charging Cradle Product Instructions.
Battery
A rechargeable NiMH AAA battery 1.2 V 1000 mAh provides power to the MWR-300 TA.
Use only rechargeable batteries. Do not use other battery types.
A | Front cap | B | + (positive pole) |
To power on the MWR-300 TA:
Remove the front cap of the MWR-300 TA by using a flat screwdriver.
Insert the battery (with the correct polarity) into the dedicated case.
Screw the front cap of the MWR-300 TA by using a flat screwdriver.
To power off the MWR-300 TA:
Remove the front cap of the MWR-300 TA by using a flat screwdriver.
Remove the battery from the case.
Screw the front cap of the MWR-300 TA by using a flat screwdriver.
End Fittings
At the front part, the wrench has a standard drive (14x18 mm) which allows to attach different types of end fittings.
For information on the compensations, please refer to the Focus 61 User guide.
Protection cover
The protection cover protects the MWR-300 TA electronic housing from accidental light impacts in production.
Insert the ring of the protection cover on the handle of the MWR-300 TA and slide it to the electronic housing.
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.
Wrong handling
The operation of the MWR-300 TA must be carried out by the middle of the handle.
Pull / Push only in the tightening direction.
Do not touch the body of the MWR-300 TA during tightening operations. Positioning the thumb on the tube alters the click value!
Do not hold the body of the MWR-300 TA during tightening operations. The operation of the MWR-300 TA must be carried out by the middle of the handle.
Correct handling and click tightening
The screw should be tightened in even strokes.
The closing speed should allow an immediate interruption of the tightening operation as the MWR-300 TA clicks.
The operation of the MWR-300 TA must be carried out by the middle of the handle.
The force should be one-handed, uniform, parallel and applied with no interruptions until the tool clicks.
After the automatic release (click), the MWR-300 TA must not be moved further.
Operating Instructions
Adjusting the click-torque
Insert the Setting key in the MWR-300 TA.
Rotate A counterclockwise to unlock the Setting key.
Rotate B clockwise to increase the torque, or counterclockwise to decrease the torque.
Rotate A clockwise to lock the Setting key.
Make sure that the Setting key is locked properly after adjusting the mechanical click. After locking the Setting key, it is highly recommended to perform at least 25 clicks to verify the mechanical click suits.
The label printed on each MWR-300 TA indicates the torque range of the wrench.
Tightening Test
The Focus 61 sends the tightening program (Pset and Job) to the MWR-300 TA.
For more information on the configuration and the use of MWR-300 TA, refer to the Focus 61 User Guide.
When the MWR-300 TA receives the tightening program and the wrench is ready for use, the blue LED flashes.
Load the MWR-300 TA following the direction of the arrow as shown on the label on the MWR-300 TA body (see the figure below):
A | Blue LED | B | Tightening direction |
During the measurement (MWR-300 TA is loaded with torque), the yellow LED flashes.
At the end of each tightening, the LEDs are alight according to the test result:
Green LED: Tightening OK
Red LED: Tightening NOT OK
