CHAPTER 1 - SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1 - SCOPE
This tool has been designed to assemble and disassemble screws in wood, metal and plastic materials. No other use will be per-
mitted. For professional use only.
2 - GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
General safety instructions are collected in the 6159930690 safety booklet.
Specific instructions are given below.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
3 - PERSONAL SAFETY
3.1 - Earthing connection
3.2 - Differential circuit-breaker
Always use a differential circuit breaker to protect the operator from electric shock. A differential circuit breaker in the
power supply to the tool detects any insulation defect between the phases of the network and the earth and immediately cuts off
the power supply to the tool.
3.3 - Power supply
Always use the cord supplied with the tool to connect to the mains power supply or CP Data Transfer Unit (DTU) only.
Do not modify the cord or use it for other purposes. Use only genuine CP replacement parts. Failure to follow these instruc-
tions may result in electric shock.
4 - TOOL USE HAZARDS
The selection of the tool takes account of the operating conditions as stated by the user, who shall not exceed the operating limits
as specified by the manufacturer at the time of the selection (see "Max duty cycle" file on the CDRom supplied).
Any excessive internal temperature of the tool electric motor if higher than 60°C is detected and stops the tool. It can start again
only if the temperature decreases to under 50°C.
Although our cables are designed to work under drastic conditions, we recommend that you check the following points for longer
service life:
• bending radii should not be lower than 10 times the cable diameter,
• friction with the outer sheath should be restricted,
• any direct pull on the cable should be avoided.
5 - TOOL CARE AND SERVICE
Only experienced and qualified personnel (authorised electricians) are entitled to open and have access to the inside of
the tool. If in doubt, return the tool to a CP-authorized service centre (contact your local CP Sales for details).
Disconnect from power supply and wait one minute before commencing service operations. Failure to wait one minute may
result in electric shock from undischarged capacitors.
Beware hot components. There is a risk of burning by internal components which can reach 75°C (170°F). Allow to cool before
handling.
To reduce risk of injury, everyone using, installing, repairing, maintaining, changing accessories on, or working
near this tool must read and understand the safety instructions before performing any such task. Failure to follow
all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
WARNING: this power tool must be earthed.

CHAPTER 2 - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
1 - GENERAL
EAP/EDP tools are electric fastening tools directly supplied by mains. They are fitted with a torque transducer for high-precision
torque control. Main parameters (torque; speed) can be adjusted directly on the tool using a display and 3 programming keys. It
is also possible, whatever the option, to completely programme the tool and to save the parameters using a PDA (Personal Digital
Assistant) via a wireless connection between the tool and the PDA.
There are several options:
1.1 - Mains supply
There are 2 types of tools:
• one tool which works with 230 VAC mains voltage, ± 8%, 50/60Hz
• one tool which works with 115 VAC mains voltage, ± 8%, 50/60Hz
Although the peak power can reach 2 kW during the final speed phase, it is recommended to adjust the power circuits according
to the maximum average power.
The average power input depends on the tool type, the assembly type and the tightening rate. However, for heat dissipation rea-
sons, the maximum average power can not exceed 0.3 kW.
1.2 - Features
Values measured in individual work places may be higher than the declared values. The actual exposure values and risk of harm
experienced by an individual user are unique and depend upon the way the user works, the workstation design, as well as upon
the exposure time and the physical condition of the user.
We, CP, cannot be held liable for the consequences of using the declared values, instead of values reflecting the actual exposure,
in an individual risk assessment in a work place situation over which we have no control.
"Standard" (T) screwing with a preset torque value,
informing the user that the assembly has been properly carried out.
"Advance" (TA) ensuring that the assembly has been properly carried out through:
• torque control,
• checking rotation angle,
informing the user that the assembly has been properly carried out.
Protection level IP40 These declared values were obtained by laboratory type testing in
compliance with the stated standards and are not adequate for use in
risk assessments.

1.3 - Operating temperature
Considering its technology, the temperature of the tool naturally increases during tightening cycles. Best tightening rates are
reached with an ambient temperature of 20°C. The performance of the tool is decreased by approximately 50% for an ambient
temperature of 40°C. The maximum operating temperature is 45°C.
For further information, refer to "Max duty cycle" file on documentation CD-ROM.

CHAPTER 4 - PROGRAMMING
1 - PROGRAMMING DIRECTLY ON THE TOOL
1.1 - Description
The tool has been designed for an easy, optimum, fast and secured start-up. The parameters directly programmable from the tool
are:
• the access code which authorises parameter modification,
• the tightening torque and its unit,
• the learning mode,
• the speed adjustment.
1.2 - Main programming procedure
1.2.1 - Programming mode
1 Press for at least 3s to reach the programming
mode. The access code parameter is displayed (set
up to 0).
This step is disabled if the "Locked in programming" option has been selected through the PDA; in this case
the parameters cannot be modified directly from the tool. The tool displays for a few seconds, then
returns to the control mode.
2 Change this value using or until the access
code is displayed (122 by default).
• continuous action -> fast scrolling
• short action -> step by step modification.
The access code can be changed using the PDA (see
corresponding manual).
3 Press to validate. If the access code is not correct, E201 is displayed and all the parameter LEDs light up
for a few seconds, then the tool returns to control mode.

1.2.5 - Learning
Learning begins.
1. Tighten the first assembly. Result 1:
2. Tighten the second assembly. Result 2:
3. Tighten the third and last assembly. Result 3:
Then you can:
• either press for at least 3s to go back in tightening mode,
• or briefly press to modify the speed parameter.
1.2.6 - Speed
It is recommended to use the learning function to programme the tool. This function is used to easily optimise all
the tightening parameters, including parameters which can only be reached through the PDA (run down torque,
angle tolerance, etc.). If at the end of the learning you are not satisfied with the speed level, you can change it by
selecting the speed parameter.
If you perform the learning with only one assembly, you can loose it using .
If during the learning the result is not OK, the tool goes back to the beginning of the learning process.
If after the 1st or the 2nd tightening you do not want to go on, press . Then the tool goes back to the beginning
of the learning process.
The speed level is set automatically when the assembly is learnt. It is modified when the speeds learnt are not com-
pletely satisfactory.
The speed level can be set between 1 and 10 (1=slow, 10=fast). For each speed level there are one rundown speed
and one final tightening speed. The display displays successively the speed (1 to 10), the rundown speed (rpm) and
the final tightening speed (rpm). These speed pairs are optimised for each tool type and to match all types of assem-
bly. Thus the tightening is more precise, the operator comfort is improved, the operation shocks are reduced, the
cycle time is optimised and the tool overheating is reduced.
