Safety Information
WARNING Electric Shock
Use the Atlas Copco original power supply cable. Using
an incorrect power supply cable can result in bodily in-
juries to yourself or others.
Always use an Atlas Copco original power supply
►
cable, if it needs to be replaced.
Always use original parts and accessories approved
►
by Atlas Copco.
Damage to insulations of cables or electrical compo-
►
nents may pose life-threatening risks.
When carrying out maintenance on the joining tool,
►
always disconnect it from the power supply.
Damaged cables must be replaced immediately, as
►
they increase the risk of electric shock.
Turn off mains power supply before adjusting or ser-
►
vicing.
Operation
General Operation Safety
WARNING All locally legislated safety rules regard-
ing 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 re-
sult in operator injury.
• Be aware of the rotational direction of the spindle before
starting the tool, the reaction force may work in an unex-
pected direction with risk of crush injuries.
• The tool with its drive/controller box is designed to oper-
ate at any setting within its torque range at a primary volt-
age 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 operat-
ing 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 oper-
ator reaction force.

• Consider that a joint failure or a tool error can cause sud-
den unexpected reaction force and possibly injure the op-
erator.
• 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.
General Operation Safety
Air supply and connection hazards
WARNING Compressed Air
High air pressure can cause severe damage and bodily in-
jury.
Do not exceed maximum air pressure.
►
Make sure that there are no damaged or loose hoses
►
or fittings.
WARNING Whipping hoses can cause serious injury
Always make sure that there are no damaged or
►
loose hoses or fittings.
• Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure and
disconnect tool from air supply when not in use, before
changing accessories or when making repairs.
• Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
• Whenever universal twist couplings are used, lock pins
must be installed.
• Do not exceed maximum air pressure of 6.3 bar / 90 psig,
or as stated on tool nameplate.
• Unexpected pneumatic movements and outflows of com-
pressed air can cause crush injuries and eye injuries.
• Any damage to pneumatic components must be remedied
immediately.
Projectile hazards
• Always wear impact resistant eye and face protection
when involved with or near the operation, repair or main-
tenance of the tool or changing accessories on the tool.
• Be sure all others in the area are wearing impact resistant
eye and face protection. Even small projectiles can injure
eyes and cause blindness.
Accessory hazards
• Use only proper accessory retainers (see parts list). Use
deep sockets wherever possible.
Operating hazards
WARNING Risk of Severe Injury
Never operate the tool wearing loose objects. Choking,
scalping or other severe bodily injuries can occur if loose
clothing, jewellery, neck ware and hair is not kept away
from tool or accessories.
Never wear gloves when operating the tool.
►
Keep loose clothing, jewellery, neck ware and hair
►
away from rotating drive or accessories.
