While adjusting the Torque value, if the user continues to hold the right button after reaching the minimum Torque value the screen changes to the Snug function. The Snug function allows the user to continue to decrease torque but at an accuracy less than the calibrated Torque function. LITHIUM SERIES® II ELECTRIC TORQUE TOOL USER INTERFACE GUIDE... - Page 14 (C O N T ’ D . ) SNUG The Snug function is used to bring two bolting surfaces into alignment and contact. It may also be used to tighten bolts at a lower torque. In structural bolting, the snug operation is applied first to bring surfaces into contact followed by either a calibrated torque or “Turn-of-Nut”...
- Page 15 Just as with Torque, a Release value is required following Angle. During a Torque, Angle and Release operation in the same trigger pull, Angle is always applied after Torque and before Release. The Angle always turns the nut in the same direction as Torque. LITHIUM SERIES® II ELECTRIC TORQUE TOOL USER INTERFACE GUIDE...
- Page 16 (C O N T ’ D . ) RELEASE The Release angle takes the tension off the motor, causing the tool to automatically be released from the bolt following a tightening operation. Release is set at the user’s discretion and may not always be required. Typically the user tests a bolt on a particular job to determine the magnitude of the release angle needed.
- Page 17 For traditional RH or LH fasteners, the tool assumes use of reaction arms and displays a safety message, “Press any button to start operation,” to keep the user’s hands away from any pinch point. For the HYTORC Washer (HWR, HWL) and the HYTORC Nut (HN) a reaction arm is not required and the safety message is not displayed.
- Page 18 • Position Back Wrench - If needed, apply a back wrench to the back nut on the bolt to prevent it from turning during tightening. If using the HYTORC Back Washer a back wrench is unnecessary. • Position Drive/Socket - Place socket over nut until firmly engaged. If using the HYTORC Washer or HYTORC Nut, make sure the driver properly engages the fastener.
- Page 19 • Release Trigger - Release the trigger after the tool has completed all specified operations (Torque, Angle & Release), the tool stops for the last time and the BEEPER sounds (if activated); then remove the tool socket/drive from the nut. LITHIUM SERIES® II ELECTRIC TORQUE TOOL USER INTERFACE GUIDE...
