INTRODUCTION
The PneuTorque® PTS™ series are non-impacting, air driven power tools designed for applying torque to
threaded fasteners. Remote control versions have no direction/shut-off control on the tool but rely on external
pneumatic circuitry (not provided) to provide this function. This opens up numerous application possibilities
for the PneuTorque® ranging from simple stall shut-off in a hazardous working environment to sophisticated,
multi-spindle torque and angle shut-off systems.
Together with the external pneumatic circuitry an external pressure regulator (Lubro Control Unit) is needed;
this allows the air pressure to be adjusted to determine the stall torque from the graph provided. There are
models to cover torque capacities of 500 N∙m to 7000 N∙m.
The PTS™ must always be operated with the following:
• Filtered dry air supply. Minimum recommended compressor rating: 6.9 bar (100 psi), 19 l/s (40 CFM).
• Lubro Control Unit or similar Filter, Regulator and Lubricator Unit ½” Bore (12 mm).
• Impact or high quality sockets.

SET UP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Torque Reaction
The reaction plate is used to take the torque reaction force (which is equal and opposite to the tool output)
and can also be used to mount the tool.
NOTE: The remote control tools are not supplied with a reaction plate/bar as standard.
Norbar offer several types of reaction bar (like the double-sided reaction plate shown in Figure 4) and weld
rings (figure 3) which allow users to integrate the reaction spline into their own custom reaction solutions.
Alternatively, contact Norbar’s Engineer-to-Order team for a bespoke design and quotation for a reaction
solution.
The conventional way to retain the tool within the reaction spline is via the circlip which locates in the groove
at the front of the spline feature.
If using a conventional reaction bar: It is essential that the reaction plate rests squarely against a solid
object or surface adjacent to the fastener to be tightened. The contact area must be within the shaded area
of Figure 5, with the contact area as large as possible.
WARNING: CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO ENSURE THAT THE REACTION PLATE IS ONLY
USED WITHIN THE LIMITATIONS SHOWN IN FIGURE 5.
For special applications or where extra length sockets must be used, the standard arm may be extended but
only within the limitations shown on Figure 5.
WARNING: FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE LIMITATIONS SHOWN IN FIGURE 5 WHEN
MODIFYING STANDARD REACTION PLATES MAY RESULT IN PREMATURE
WEAR OR DAMAGE TO THE TOOL.

Standard drive square extensions MUST NOT be used as these will cause serious damage to the tool output
drive. A range of nose extensions is available for applications where access is restricted. These are
designed to support the final drive correctly.
When the PneuTorque® is in operation the reaction plate rotates in the opposite direction to the output drive
square and must be allowed to rest squarely against a solid object or surface adjacent to the bolt to be
tightened. (See Figure 6).
WARNING: ALWAYS KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF THE REACTION PLATE WHEN THE
TOOL IS IN USE OR SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT.
2. Air Lubrication
The tool must be used with oil lubrication in the supplied air. This is achieved by using a Lubro Control Unit
(not supplied).
Set the air lubrication:
a. Fill Lubro Control Unit with appropriate air-tool grade oil.
b. Ensure the tool drive is free to rotate.
c. Run the tool – adjust the tool to max pressure according to the setting data.
d. Adjust Lubrication Unit to supply 4 drops of oil per minute.
See Lubro Control Unit Operator’s Manual for more details.
3. Tool Control Systems
The remote control air motor requires a separate external pneumatic circuit (not supplied) for on/off and
clockwise / anticlockwise control of the tool. The direction of tool rotation is determined by pressurising either
the clockwise or anti-clockwise air inlet ports.
A Lubro Control Unit (Part Number 16074 - not supplied) is required to lubricate the air and control the air
pressure so the correct torque is applied. Check the oil level in the Lubro Control Unit and fill to the correct
level.
Ensure air hoses are clean and free from dirt before connecting. The air supply hoses and control valves must
be ½” bore (12mm) and the hose from the supply to the control system must not be longer than 5 metres or the
tools performance will be impaired. If the supply hose must be longer than 5 metres then ¾” bore must be
used.
Examples of pneumatic control circuits are shown in Figures 7 and Figure 8.

5. Exhaust Port
The exhaust port, located under the tool, is common to both inlet ports. If required an exhaust hose can be
connected, this will reduce the sound pressure level. The exhaust hose size must not be reduced from ¾”
(19mm) or the tool performance will be reduced.
TIP: As with any pneumatic tool a fine oil mist is present in the exhaust air. Please ensure the
exhaust air cannot cause a hazard.
6. Setting Torque to Tighten Fastener
The torque created by the PneuTorque® depends on
the air pressure setting. All tools are supplied with
setting data that gives the air pressure required to
produce the correct torque output.
Set the torque output as follows:
i) Use the setting data (supplied) to find
the air pressure to achieve the required
torque.
ii) With the tool running, adjust the Lubro Control Unit (not included) until
the correct air pressure is shown on the gauge.
IMPORTANT: THE TOOL MUST BE FREE RUNNING WHILE ADJUSTING
THE AIR PRESSURE TO GIVE THE CORRECT SETTING.
IMPORTANT: CHECK THAT THE LUBRO CONTROL UNIT IS SUPPLYING
APPROXIMATELY FOUR DROPS OF OIL PER MINUTE
WHILE THE TOOL IS FREE RUNNING.
