Product Specific Instructions
Special precautions for STR and ETT tools
WARNING Risk of injury
Major changes in joint characteristics will affect the op-
erator reaction force and can injure the operator.
Avoid using tightening strategies in applications out-
►
side their limitations.
Recommended value for Rundown Complete is 10%
►
of target torque.
Installation
General Installation Safety
Refer installation to qualified personnel only.
Hang the tool securely, by for example using a balancer.
When using a suspension yoke, check that it is in good condi-
tion and correctly fastened.
Always connect the system to an earthed outlet. Always make
sure that the mains plug is disconnected and the controller is
turned off before connecting or disconnecting the tool cable.

Special precautions
• The machine may only be used together with the associ-
ated torque reaction bar which is adapted to the screw
joint application concerned.
• For ETP ST101 we strongly recommend using Dual ac-
tion trigger to minimize the risk of fingers or hands get-
ting caught between the reaction bar and the work piece.
Available as an optional accessory.
• If a PLC or similar is used to change the rotational direc-
tion of the spindle, the tool must be fixtured to avoid risk
of personal injury.
• Check function of the earth fault protector and ground
loop continuity on a regular basis according to the Prod-
uct Instructions of the drive.
Operation
General Instructions
The tool may only be used together with the associated torque
reaction bar, which is adapted to the screw joint application
concerned.
WARNING Crushing Hazard
Check the rotational direction of the tool before start! A
start in an unexpected rotational direction can cause bod-
ily injury or property damage. Moving parts can crush
and cut.
Make sure that the rotational direction of the tool is
►
correct before starting the tool.
Keep hands and fingers away from moving parts.

General Operation Safety
• Due to entanglement risk, do not wear gloves.
• Be prepared of the reaction force which will occur
when the tool is used. Always support the tool's handle
securely in the direction opposite to the spindle rotation,
in order to reduce the effect of sudden torque reaction
during final tightening and initial loosening.
• Never hold the drive, socket or drive extension.
• Operators and maintenance personnel must be physi-
cally able to handle the bulk, weight and power of the
tool.
• If possible, use a suspension arm to absorb the reac-
tion torque. If that is not possible, side handles are
recommended for straight-case and pistol-grip tools;
reaction bars are recommended for angle nutrunners.
It is recommended to use a means to absorb the reaction
torque above 4 Nm (3 lbf.ft) for straight-case tools, above
10 Nm (7.5 lbf.ft) for pistol-grip tools, and above 60 Nm
(44 lbf.ft) for angle nutrunners.
• Serious injury can result from over-torqued or under-
torqued fasteners. Assemblies requiring a specific
torque must be checked using a torque meter. So-called
"click" torque wrenches do not check for potentially dan-
