The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of fac-
tors including the following.
After fastening, always check the torque with a torque
wrench.
1. When the battery cartridge is discharged almost
completely, voltage will drop and the fastening
torque will be reduced.
2. Driver bit or socket bit
Failure to use the correct size driver bit or socket bit
will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
3. Bolt
• Even though the torque coefficient and the class of
bolt are the same, the proper fastening torque will
differ according to the diameter of bolt.
• Even though the diameters of bolts are the same,
the proper fastening torque will differ according to
the torque coefficient, the class of bolt and the bolt
length.
4. The manner of holding the machine or the material
of driving position to be fastened will affect the
torque.
5. Operating the machine at low speed will cause a
reduction in the fastening torque.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the machine is switched off and the
