4.0 General Operating Instructions
WARNING!
Only qualified personnel with training in the safe operation of torque tooling and the Digital
B-RAD Tool System should operate this tool.
The Digital B-RAD operates in Torque Cycles. The Torque Cycle passes when the Actual
Torque reaches the Target Torque and the Cycle fails if it is interrupted before the Actual
Torque reaches the Target Torque.
This section instructs the operator in the use of the Reaction Arm needed for Digital B-RAD
operation and how to conduct a Torque Cycle.
4.1 Reaction Arm
WARNING!
Always keep body parts clear of the Reaction Arm when the Digital B-RAD Tool
System is in use. Serious injury could occur.
CAUTION!
Ensure the Reaction Arm has a solid contact point before operating the Digital B
RAD Tool System.
4.1.1 Installing the Reaction Arm
Ensure the Reaction Arm and Snap Ring are installed securely to hold the Reaction Arm in
place. Make sure the Reaction Arm is in contact with a solid Reaction Point before you
operate the tool. Keep your body parts clear of the Reaction Arm when the tool is in
operation.
When the tool is in operation the Reaction Arm rotates in the opposite direction to the
Output Square Drive and must be allowed to rest squarely against a solid object or surface
adjacent to the bolt to be tightened (Figure 4.1.1-1).
