LOW CLEARANCE HYDRAULIC WRENCH OPERATING MANUAL
Instructions Before Use
1. Read and understand all instructions before operating the hydraulic wrench. Most malfunctions in new equip-
ment are the result of improper operation and/or setup. It is the operators responsibility to read, understand, and
follow all safety instructions.
2. Remove the hydraulic wrench from the shipping container and visually inspect all components for any shipping
damage. If any damage is found, notify the carrier immediately. DO NOT USE TOOL.
3. Locate a solid, secure reaction point to absorb and counteract the forces created as the hydraulic wrench is
operated.
4. Make sure the hydraulic hoses are free of the reaction point.
5. Momentarily pressurize the system. If the wrench tends to "ride up" or "creep", stop and readjust the reaction
arm to a more solid and secure reaction point.
6. Cycle the hydraulic cylinder inside the wrench to ensure proper function.
Note: Each time the hydraulic cylinder inside the wrench is extended
and retracted, it is called a cycle.
Working Pressure
The maximum working pressure for this hydraulic wrench is 10,000 psi (68,900 kPa). Make sure all hydraulic
equipment used with this wrench are rated for 10,000 psi (68,900 kPa) operating pressure.
WARNING
Hydraulic Connections
• Open all hydraulic controls several times to make
sure the system has been completely depressurized.
• If the system includes a gauge, double check the
gauge to make sure pressure has been released.
• When making connections with quick disconnect
coupling, make sure the coupling are fully engaged.
Threaded connections such as fittings, gauges, etc.,
must be securely tightened and leak-free.
IMPORTANT
For a copy of the calibration certificate for a specific torque wrench, email
info@powerteam.com with serial number of the torque wrench
• Never connect or disconnect any hydraulic hoses or
fittings without first unloading the wrench and the pump.
Loose or improperly threaded fittings can be potentially dangerous if pressurized,
however, over-tightening can cause premature thread failure. Fittings should only be
tightened until they are secure and leak-free.

Page 4: Setting Torque
Operating Instructions Form No. 1000289 Safety a) Never exceed the torque wrench maximum working pressure (Advance 689 Bar / 10,000 psi, Retract 69 Bar / 1000 psi) b) Keep hands and fingers clear of the torque wrench head and reaction pad area, before and during operation. Fingers could be inadvertently trapped if care is not taken. - Page 5 Operating Instructions Form No. 1000289 Preparing the Torque Qrench for Use Assembling / Removing the Drive Head Before the TWLC torque wrench can be used the correct drive head for the nut must be fitted to the TWLC body. Note that no special tools or spanners are needed to change the drive head. If a drive head is already assembled, it can be detached by pushing out the head retainer pin, and simply lifting out the body.
- Page 6 Operating Instructions Form No. 1000289 Positioning the Torque Tool onto the Nut The TWLC torque wrench locates directly around the nut, with it’s built-in reaction pad designed to react against an adjacent nut. Fig. 3 below indicates correct positioning of the torque tool (shown in tightening mode). Always ensure that the reaction pad butts firmly against an adjacent nut or secure reaction structure.

Page 8: Loosening Bolts
Operating Instructions Form No. 1000289 Loosening Bolts 1. Connect the torque wrench to the pump unit. Ensure that the couplings are fully screwed together as they are self-sealing and will restrict oil flow if not fully connected. 2. Prior to applying the torque wrench to the application, the pump output pressure must be pre-set to deliver the maximum pressure of 690 Bar (10,000psi). - Page 9 Operating Instructions Form No. 1000289 The following procedure is for use with TWLC torque wrenches and outlines the basic steps in order to carry out the torque tightening of a flanged joint. It is important that personal protective clothing (gloves, footwear, safety hel- met, eye protection) is worn at all times not only by the Operator, but also by any personnel within the work area.
