    Turn on air supply and check for air leaks. FIGURE 1 – Connections Air Lubrication The tool must be used with oil lubrication in the supplied air. This is achieved by using a Lubro Control Unit (not supplied). Set the air lubrication: Fill Lubro Control Unit with hydraulic oil (Fuchs Silkair VG22, Shell Tellus S2 VX15 or equivalent good quality hydraulic oil).
  • Page 13 It is essential the reaction bar rests squarely against a solid object or surface adjacent to the fastener to be tightened. The contact area must be within the shaded area of Figure 2, with the contact area as large as possible.

  • Page 18: Dual Trigger Tools

    Tools purchased with a Dual Trigger Module (DTM) pre-fitted are identified with the part number suffix .DTM Tools purchased with a DTM pre-fitted are calibrated at Norbar with the DTM in place. This is because the DTM itself creates a pressure drop which would alter any previously determined calibration data.
  • Page 19: Maintenance

    Any other maintenance or repairs should be carried out by Norbar or a Norbar distributor. Maintenance intervals will depend on the tool usage and the environment in which it is being used. The maximum recommended maintenance and recalibration interval is 12 months.
  • Page 20: Drive Square

    Fit new screw and tighten between 4 Nꞏm to 5 Nꞏm (for PTM52) or 8 Nꞏm to 9 Nꞏm (for PTM68/72/80/92/119) or insert new spring pin. Connect air supply. TIP: If the drive square fails continually then seek advice from Norbar or a Norbar distributor. Calibration ® To maintain the PneuTorque accuracy it is recommended the tool is recalibrated at least every 12 months.
