A. WORK AREA SAFETY
•Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
•Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
•Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
B. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
•Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
•Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
•Do not allow battery to get wet. Do not operate tool in rain, snow or high humidity. Do not splash or immerse
in liquids.
•Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
•When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable
for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
•If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt (GFCI)
protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
C. PERSONAL SAFETY
•Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
•Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask,
non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
•Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the o-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
•Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
•Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
•If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
•Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings designated by the symbol and all instructions.
. GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

LITHIUM SERIES® Electric Torque Tool (BTM and BTM-DOC Models) Operations Manual 2
E. BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
•Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery
pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
•Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
•When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
•Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery
may cause irritation or burns.
•Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
•Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above
130 °C may cause explosion.
•Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
F. SERVICE
•Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
•Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or
authorized service providers.
D. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
•Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
•Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and o. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
•Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
•Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
•Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may aect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
•Keep cutting tool sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
•Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations dierent from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
•Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

•Angle is applied after a time delay set in the Angle Delay menu – typical ½ to 3 seconds.
•When the tool achieves the Torque value (and Angle, if set) the motor automatically stalls and the
gear box continues to exert force (and reaction force) essentially locking the tool onto the nut.
•Set a Release Angle to reverse the motor slightly thus taking the applied force o the gear box and
reaction point and releasing the tool from the nut without loosening the nut.
•The Release Angle setting may vary depending on the application and may need to be developed
iteratively by testing the value on the application; the objective is to set the minimum RELEASE
angle required to release the tool without applying a force that would turn or loosen the nut.
•Release Angle is typically set to less than 10 degrees (1-to-3 degrees for HYTORC Washer, or 3-to-7
degrees for reaction arms) so that nut is not loosened.
•The automatic release feature is actuated by continuing to hold the trigger after the tool
successfully completes Torque operations (and Angle if set).
•During operation the screen will show the release angle and direction, the tool motor will reverse
by the desired release angle and then stall again to allow the tool to be removed from the nut.
•The Release Angle is applied following application of Torque (and Angle, if set) and after an
additional time delay set in the Angle Delay menu – typical ½ to 3 seconds.
