INSPECT TOOLS AND COMPONENTS
• Inspect all components; if damaged report any sign of
damage to the shipper and do not use the tool.
• Inspect the tool before each use; repair or replace any
obviously worn or damaged parts.
• Maintenance must be performed by a qualified technician.
• Modifying any of the components invalidates the warranty.
• When not in use store all tool components in the plastic
storage case.
• Save all instructions and calibration reports in the
storage case.
CALIBRATION
HYTORC tools are designed to operate within specific design
tolerances to deliver accurate, repeatable results. As with any
other measuring instrument, torque tools require periodic
testing and recalibration to ensure precise torqueing results.
• Check the calibration certificate or label on the tool for
the most recent calibration date.
• HYTORC recommends all tools be tested and
recalibrated every 6-12 months.
• More frequent calibration may be necessary depending
on use.
• Customer/user is responsible for arranging testing and
recalibration.
• Contact HYTORC Customer Assistance at
800-FOR-HYTORC for assistance or further information.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
The LION GUN Electric Torque Tool is a rugged industrial tool
with an electric motor and electronic control. The following
environmental considerations will help maintain reliable
tool operation.
• The tool should not be exposed to moisture. Do not
operate in rain, snow or extreme humidity.
• The operating temperature range of the tool is -4°F
(-20°C) to 140°F (60°C).
• All Cooling Vents should be kept clear of dust, dirt and
debris to allow internal fans to maintain airflow to keep
the motor and electronics within temperature limits.
• Do not subject the tool to extremely dusty environments.
Do not cover or obstruct vents during operation.
• The tool and electronic components are not certified or
approved for explosive environments or areas containing
combustible chemical materials.
• Secure the tool per local practice to protect from dropping.
