Operating the GFA System with reaction bar
For angle tools using torque levels exceeding 50 Nm it is recommended to use a reaction bar, either mounted on the GFA reaction flange or on the tool.
WARNINGCrushing Hazard
Check the rotational direction of the tool before start! A start in an unexpected rotational direction can cause bodily injury or property damage.
Make sure that the rotational direction of the tool is correct before starting the tool.
Keep your hands away from the reaction bar while using the tool.
Attach the tool to the application.
- WARNING
Be aware that the reaction bar will turn in the opposite direction to the tool.
By using the reverse lever, the tool can be operated in both clockwise and counter-clockwise directions.
Make sure the tool is placed in the correct position on the work surface as described in the picture.
- WARNING
Never put your hand on or close to the reaction bar while the tool is being used.
Press the push button to start the tool.
Continue pressing the push button while running down the nut. With pneumatic tools you can hear a sound, while the tool is running the nut down. When the sound decreases, release the push button to stop the tool. With electric tools the run down of the nut is controlled by the Power Focus.
