# General Operation Safety

WARNING

All locally legislated safety rules regarding installation, operation and maintenance shall be respected at all times.

- Due to entanglement risk, do not wear gloves.

- Be prepared of the reaction force which will occur when the tool is used.

- This product is only intended for industrial use and shall only be operated indoor in dry rooms. This product must not be used in explosive atmospheres.

- Only use power sockets.

- When using a suspension yoke, make sure that it is in good condition and correctly fastened.

- Be prepared of the reaction force which will occur when the tool is used.

- Make sure that the tool is in good working order and that the controller is correctly programmed before use to avoid unexpected behavior from the tool which may result in operator injury.

- Be aware of the rotational direction of the spindle before starting the tool, the reaction force may work in an unexpected direction with risk of crush injuries.

- The tool with its drive/controller box is designed to operate at any setting within its torque range at a primary voltage of nominal 230V/ 50Hz alternatively 115V/ 60Hz, single phase. Refer to the manual for drive unit.

- Always keep the drive unit/controller locked.

- The tool is intended for intermittent use. A typical operating cycle is 1 s on, 4 s off. This may vary substantially depending on the application. The acceptable duty cycle depends on many factors including torque and joint type. The tool contains protective mechanisms that ensure that the acceptable duty cycle is not exceeded.

- Avoid using tightening strategies in applications outside their limitations.

- Major changes in joint characteristics will affect the operator reaction force.

- Consider that a joint failure or a tool error can cause sudden unexpected reaction force and possibly injure the operator.

- Recommended value for Rundown Complete is 10% of target torque.

- The product must only be operated by qualified person in an industrial assembly environment. Make sure that the tool bit does not come in contact with the conductors in the controller cord, or any other concealed conductors or live electrical parts.
