SAFETY
• Always read and understand the manual fully before use.
• Train operating personnel to use the Motorised Torque Wrench Loader in a safe manner.
• The 3000 N·m motorised torque wrench loader is heavy (40kg). Take care when installing. Only lift by the
solid metalwork.
• Ensure the operating area is capable of taking the 40kg weight of the 3000 N·m motorised torque wrench
loader.
• Trapping hazard - Keep hand and loose clothing away from the torque wrench during use.
• To avoid damage to the torque wrench under test do not exceed the wrench set torque value.
• To avoid damage to the transducer do not exceed the maximum capacity.
• Never exceed the maximum torque capacity of the 3000 N·m motorised torque wrench loader (3000 N∙m
/ 2200 lbf∙ft).
• Do not operate without a torque measurement system connected and working.
• The 3000 N·m motorised torque wrench loader is designed for testing torque tools, do not use for other
purposes.
• This is a powerful torque application system. Care MUST be taken or damage may result to the torque
wrench, the torque measurement system, the torque wrench loader or injury to the operating personnel.

FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
• Assists calibration in accordance with BS EN ISO 6789:2003.
• Retains the benefits of the standard torque wrench loader.
• Ergonomically designed speed control paddle for accurate applied torque control.
• Safety transducer overload feature when used with compatible Norbar measurement system.
• Automatic motor stop without operator presence. Emergency stop override.
NOTE: A compatible Norbar measurement system must be used.
IMPORTANT: IF THE ‘RED’ LIGHT SHOWS REFER TO THE TROUBLE SHOOTING
SECTION IN APPENDIX A.

INSTALLATION
NOTE: If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Items Required
Norbar torque transducer to suit capacity of test with suitable torque display instrument.
Refer to the operator’s manuals for both the Torque Wrench Loader and torque measurement system.
It is not possible to operate without a compatible Norbar torque measurement system.
Location
Ensure location can cope with 40kg loader weight. Locate on a level surface at a comfortable working height.
Place torque measurement system on the left hand side next to the transducer.
Place the Remote Paddle Controller in a convenient location for easy operation.
Connecting Remote Paddle Controller
1. Connect flying lead from the Remote Paddle Controller into ‘REMOTE CONTROLLER’ socket on the
unit.
2. A compatible Norbar torque measurement system must be used to facilitate transducer
overload protection. The lead is supplied for TST/TTT/ T-Box connection (60303).
Connect the 3 way socket into ‘TTT/T-BOX ANCILLARIES’ on unit.
Connect 15 way plug to ancillaries socket of a Norbar TST, TTT or T-Box.

Mains Plug Fitting
If a mains plug is not fitted, follow the plug’s own instructions. The following may be useful:
BROWN-LIVE BLUE-NEUTRAL GREEN / YELLOW-EARTH
WARNING! IT IS IMPORTANT THAT LIVE, NEUTRAL AND EARTH ARE ALL
CONNECTED BETWEEN THE MOTORISED TORQUE WRENCH LOADER
AND THE MAINS SUPPLY. IF NO EARTH IS AVAILABLE (2 WIRE MAINS
SUPPLY) IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT A SEPARATE EARTH IS
CONNECTED BETWEEN THE CONTROL BOX AND A SUITABLE EARTH.
If the plug has an internal fuse, a 1 amp value is recommended.
Mains Voltage Selection
Ensure mains voltage is correctly set, the
control box has a setting draw next to the mains input
on back panel.
The orientation of this drawer can be changed by
removing the drawer with a small flat screwdriver.
Align arrow of required voltage with marker.
Torque Measurement
Use parts supplied with Torque Wrench Loader, torque measurement system and transducer.
Refer to relevant operator’s manual for torque measurement system and transducer to be used.
Select the lowest capacity torque transducer to cover the wrench to be tested.
Mount the male square of the transducer into the female square of the gear box, use adaptors to suit.
A 1” square drive transducer will fit directly, others will require ¼”, ⅜”, ½” or 1 ½” adapter.
The appropriate locating collar should be placed over the top of the transducer and locked by rotating
through 90 degrees.
Connect a transducer lead from the transducer to the instrument.
Connect the ancillaries lead from the instrument to the Torque Wrench Loader.
Ensure the instrument functions correctly. (If in doubt see operators manual).
Initial Free Run Test
With electrical supplies to the system and mains switches ‘ON’. The GREEN LED will light.
Press the ‘RESET’ button on the back panel to initialise the system. The ‘RED’ LED will extinguish, if not refer
to Appendix A - Trouble Shooting. (Page 10)
NOTE: PULL paddle to rotate the final drive anti-clockwise - DIRECTION A.
PUSH paddle to rotate the final drive clockwise - DIRECTION B.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Locating a Torque Wrench
Please refer to Torque Wrench Loader operator’s manual.
Select the correct adapter to place the torque wrench drive into transducer.
Set the reaction post position on the reaction arm so it is in the middle of the torque wrench handle.
Set the reaction post height to ensure the wrench handle is parallel to the reaction arm.
Using the Motorised System
The large gear box ratio makes movement in the output drive difficult to detect.
Use the 'A' and 'B' arrows on the control box and gearbox output as an indication.
For clock-wise calibration 'A' indicates direction to apply force & 'B' indicates direction to release force.
a) Pull paddle to rotate torque wrench loader
in direction A (anticlockwise).
The more the paddle is moved, the faster
the loader will rotate.
Release paddle to stop rotation.
Paddle will automatically return to the
‘STOP’ position.
b) Push paddle to rotate torque wrench
loader in direction B (clockwise).
TIP: In the case of a ratchet wrench, with
push through square drives, it is
important to ensure the square is
operating on the correct side of the
ratchet.
Emergency Stop
Press the RED ‘EMERGENCY STOP’ button to STOP the system. Remove the cause of the problem.
Press the ‘RESET’ button on the back panel to initialise the system.

Overload
System
Overload action
T-Box
TTT
TST
Pro-Log
The overload is activated by the ‘HI’ of the measurement system limit detector; refer to limit
settings in measurement system manual.
When the torque value reaches the HI (high) limit the system will stop and the RED LED
illuminate. To release the overload:
Move paddle in the opposite direction to the overload and ensure torque is decreasing.
Press the ‘RESET’ button on the back panel to initialise the system after the torque has been
removed.
TIP: Place torque instrument into TRACK mode to ensure torque is decreasing.
Hints on Torque Wrench Testing
1. On small torque values the break point can be difficult to detect - care must be taken.
It is recommended to use a long auto reset hold time, see measurement system manual.
STOP loading when the measurement system detects the wrench break (the measuring system displays
the <STOP> logo) even though the torque wrench click may not be heard.
Use the first torque reading, as the second is the relaxed wrench reading.
2. If down loading data to a computer or printer, false readings may occur when the wrench is being
unloaded. To stop the false readings use the LOG/NO LOG feature (Pro-Log) or PRINT/NO PRINT
feature (TST or TTT) or SAVE / NO SAVE feature (T-Box).

MAINTENANCE
The Motorised Torque Wrench Loader is engineered for a long maintenance free life. Under normal
operation maintenance is not required.
For maintenance and recalibration of the torque instrument and transducer refer to their manuals.
Cleaning
Do not use abrasives or solvent based cleaners. Norbar recommend a propriety brand of foam based fabric /
vinyl cleaner. Use a soft cloth to avoid scratches.
Disposal
Do not dispose of this product with the general waste. To follow European Directive 2002/96/EC
