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. Always 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.

Operating Instructions

• Battery Packs

Battery Packs

Fully charge new or long time unused battery packs before using your battery machine. Full loading capacity of battery pack is reached after 4 – 5 chargings.

The contact points of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.

If the machine will not be used for 100 hours or longer: separate the battery from the machine. Otherwise the electronics will discharge the battery.

• Preventive Maintenance
  • Maximizing Battery Life

Service Recommendations

Preventive maintenance is recommended at regular intervals. See the detailed information in Preventive Maintenance. If the product is not working properly, take it out of service and inspect it.

If no detailed information about preventive maintenance is included, follow these general guidelines:

• Clean appropriate parts accurately.

• Replace any defective or worn parts.

Preventive Maintenance

• Maximizing Battery Life

Maximizing Battery Life

Do not leave the battery connected to the tool if you do not use the tool for several days. The battery can discharge and go into “sleep mode” which will require a special wake-up charge procedure. For further information, see instructions for multicharger, 4211542485.

Lubrication Instructions

• Lubrication

Lubrication

Lubricate according to the Lubrication Guide at each service occasion.

For more information, see Spare Parts section in ServAid - https://servaid.atlascopco.com.

Troubleshooting

• Overheated Tool
• Error Codes

Overheated Tool

The tool can handle any normal line jobs that an operator sustains with the proper adjustments.

The tool temperature can be influenced by the following parameters:

• short cycle time

• torque above rated

• too low speed

• very high prevailing torque

• very soft joints

• ambient temperature

Error Codes

LED Indications
	3 red flashes followed by 2 yellow flashes Clutch sensor error. The tool does not start or stops correctly.
	The signal given by the clutch sensor is out of tolerances. Do a check of the sensor and the magnets for the sensor. Make sure that the flex is connected correctly to the electronic board. If the fault still appears, contact customer service.
	3 red flashes followed by 3 yellow flashes The temperature is over the maximum limit of 70°C. The tool does not start or stops correctly.
	The temperature measured with the electronic board is higher than 70°C. Wait for the tool to cool down. When the temperature is lower than 70°C it is possible to operate the tool again. Decrease the tool rate. If the temperature is lower than 70°C and the fault still appears, contact customer service
	3 red flashes followed by 4 yellow flashes Overheated tool. Too high current over too long time. The tool does not start or stops correctly.
	The power requested is too big. If the fault still appears, contact customer service.
	3 red flashes followed by 5 yellow flashes Battery voltage fault. The tool does not start or stops correctly.
	The battery voltage is not correct for the tool. Make sure that the correct battery is used. If the battery used is correct and the fault still appears, contact customer service.
	3 red flashes followed by 6 yellow flashes Overcurrent on the power circuit. The hardware limit is reached. The tool does not start or stops correctly.
	If the fault still appears, the power stage is faulty, contact customer service
	3 red flashes followed by 7 yellow flashes Motor stall. The motor is blocked or the sensors feedback do not fit with the tool drive request.
	Replace the motor. If after replacing the motor the fault still appears, contact customer service.
