Safety Precautions
You should first read this manual thoroughly and become familiar with this System
and safety precautions before installing, operating, servicing and inspecting it.
Take note that two different signs; “DANGER” and “CAUTION”, are used in this
Manual according to the degree of seriousness and urgency.
CAUTION signs also warn the risk of serious consequences depending
on the situation. So, always follow the instructions given in this Manual.
DANGER .A fatality and/or heavy personal injury is highly possible by
misoperation. Urgent warning is essential in the event of an accident.
：
◆Installation & Surroundings
CAUTION
●Always attach to a metal or other incombustible component to prevent a fire.
●Keep away from combustibles to prevent a fire.
●Avoid foreign matter intrusion to prevent a fire.
●Set up Controller on a site that can bear its weight to avoid personal injury from
accidental falling.
●Keep your workplace well lighted and clean to avoid personal injury.
●Never wear loose-fitting clothes or dangling jewelry when using this System, and always
wear the right clothes suitable for your job. In addition, be careful not to get your hair
caught in tools, and if you wear your hair long, always tie with a rubber ribbon or the like
and wear a protective helmet to prevent personal injury.
●Securely install and fix this System to avoid personal injury in case of an emergency like
an earthquake.
CAUTION
A dangerous situation accompanying mid-slight personal injury and/or
property damage is possible by misoperation.

Danger
◆Wiring
●Be sure to turn OFF the mains prior to wiring to avoid an electric shock or a fire.
●Make sure that cords and outlets are properly grounded to avoid an electric shock or a
fire.
●Carry out wiring after you installed Controller to avoid an electric shock or a fire.
●Wiring must be carried out by an expert electrician to avoid an electric shock or a fire.
●Always use Y-shape or round crimp terminals when wiring Terminal Block to avoid an
electric shock or a fire.
Caution
Danger
◆Handling/Operation
●Assurance of work-site safety by operators themselves prior to power switching operation
is essential to prevent personal injury.
●Never touch switching devices with moistened hands to avoid an electric shock.
●Avoid touching the terminals of current-carrying Controller even during Tool is under
non-operating conditions to avoid an electric shock.
●Avoid damage, mechanical stress, load to cords and never tuck them in forcibly to avoid an
electric shock.
●Be sure to turn OFF the mains after each use.
●Be sure that Controller rated voltage agrees with AC power source to avoid personal injury
and a possible fire.
●Wires must be routed and fixed properly and securely to avoid personal injury and a fire.

5
Caution
●Make settings within the confines of the prescribed operating range to avoid personal injury and burns.
●Perform operations in safe surroundings while keeping proper footing. Avoid poor postures to prevent
danger.
●Perform operations with extra care. Operations in a careless and inappropriate manner and/or
lon

or work-related diseases.
◆Maintenance/Servicing
Danger
●Turn off and unplug the mains prior to inspection/replacement to avoid an electric shock.
●Maintenance/servicing works only by an expert is allowed. Be sure to take off metal
articles (wrist-watch or ring) prior to operation. Inspect cords periodically for damage,
and have an expert make repairs or exchange if signs of wear is noticed. Always use
insulating tools at the time of servicing to avoid an electric shock and personal injury.
●Always order us or our designated agent when overhauling becomes necessary to avoid an
electric shock, personal injury and fire.
◆Disposal
Danger
●Never add modifications to your System to avoid an electric shock, injury or fire.
●Stop your System right away and cut off the power whenever something unusual occurs.
●Keep persons irrelevant to System operation away from work-sites.
General Precautions
●Dispose of your System as an industrial waste.

Various judgments
Others
Two types of controllers are available, one is pressure sensor
incorporated type and the other is connector incorporated type as follows:
Pressure Sensor Incorporated Type : UTM-1500 (PS)
Connector Incorporated Type : UTM-1500 (CN)
※１：For pulse detection, prepare a 30cm-long or shorter TM Signal hose to connect Tool and
Pressure Sensor.
There are times when pulse detection is impossible in the case that a less pneumatic
pressure fluctuation type tool (like a small tool) is in use and/or depending on the work
conditions.

7
Tool Connection
・Make the length of TM Signal air hose between Tool and Pressure Sensor (external pressure
sensor/main body incorporated sensor) or Air-electric Relay as short as possible. A lengthy air
hose may sometimes cause a delay in detecting pneumatic pressure fluctuations or hinder
correct detection. (Shorter than 5m is recommended)
・In the case of fastening pulse number detection, the length of TM Signal air hose between Tool
and Pressure Sensor must be maintained shorter than 30cm. TM Signal air hose of longer
than 30cm will interfere with air pulsation taking during pulsing.
・When using TM Tool or Standard Tool, place Solenoid Valve at an adequate point so as the length
of the air hose up to Tool will be maintained as short as possible. When the air hose between
Solenoid Valve and Tool is unnecessary lengthy, Tool stop timing will be delayed due to
residual pressure in the hose even though the valve reacted normally.
