SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Your Bolttech-Mannings torque wrench is a power tool, and as with any power tool, certain safety
precautions should be observed to avoid accidents or personal injury. The following
tips will assist you:
. Do not kink the hydraulic hoses, and be sure they're clear of any possible reaction
surface during operation.
system in the safest manner possible.
. Do not use the hoses or any hydraulic connection as a "handle".
. All in-line links are supplied with a boot. The boot is to be used as a reaction
surface. Always use a boot with a in-line link, failure to do so will cause permanent
damage to the cylinder and void the manufacturer’s warranty.
. All square drive links are supplied with a reaction bar. The reaction bar is to be
used as a reaction surface. Always use the reaction bar with a square drive link,
failure to do so will cause permanent damage to the cylinder and void the
manufacturer’s warranty.
. Be sure the reaction boot retaining clamp is fully engaged. The reaction bar or boot
should be located on a solid, secure reaction point. For added safety, remain clear
of the rear of the reaction bar or boot during operation. Also, when initially applying
the tool, pressurize the system momentarily; if the tool tends to "ride up" or "creep",
stop and re-adjust the reaction bar or boot to a more solid and secure position.
. Always use top quality impact sockets in good condition, which are the correct size
precautions, you'll be sure to obtain the most beneficial use of your Bolttech-Mannings wrench
and fully engage the nut. Hidden flaws, however, remain a possibility which could
cause breakage, so stay clear of sockets during operation.
. In most cases, the tool will allow "hands-free" operation. If the tool must be held or
steadied during operation, avoid handling the area around the reaction bar or boot.
. Electric pumps should never be used in any atmosphere which could be considered
REACTION ARM
All Bolttech-Mannings Hydraulic Wrenches are equipped with a universal reaction arm. These
reaction arms are employed to absorb and counteract reaction forces created as the
units operate. The reaction arm should always extend in the same direction of the
square drive; however, adjustments may be made to suit your particular application.
To adjust the reaction arm, unscrew the reaction arm retaining clamp and slide the
reaction arm off of the housing. Next, rotate the reaction arm to the desired orientation
and slide it back onto the housing and secure the retaining clamp.
SETTING TORQUE
With the system fully connected and the proper power supply available, find the desired
torque conversion chart supplied for your particular tool model. Read across to the
corresponding pressure. This pressure is to be set on the pump. To do so, turn on the
pump, press down on the "advance" remote control button and hold, pressure will build
up on the gauge. To adjust pressure, loosen the locking ring on the pressure regulator
valve and turn the thumbscrew clockwise to increase pressure, counterclockwise to
decrease pressure.
NOTE: When decreasing pressure, it is necessary to turn the thumb-screw to a
pressure setting BELOW what is desired and gradually increase the pressure
to the desired level.
Once the desired pressure is stabilized, re tighten the locking ring.
PRIOR TO BEGINNING TO TORQUE - PRESS DOWN ON REMOTE CONTROL
BUTTON AND CONFIRM THE CORRECT PRESSURE HAS BEEN SET.
APPLYING THE TORQUE WRENCH
Place the proper size impact socket on the square drive and secure properly with a
locking ring and pin.
Place the tool and the socket on the nut making sure that the socket has fully engaged
the nut and that the square drive is fully into the socket.
Make sure the reaction arm is firmly abutted against a stationary object (i.e. an adjacent
nut, flange, equipment housing, etc.)
Make sure that the hoses are not placed between the reaction members.
Apply momentary pressure to the system to ensure proper tool placement.
