1. Think Safety First!
Working with fastening tools can be dangerous if safe and proper procedures are not followed. As
with all machinery, certain hazards can be involved with the operation of the product. Using these
tools with respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. If, however,
safety precautions are overlooked or ignored personal injury to the operator can result.
Always use common sense and exercise caution when using these tools. They can produce high
torque that, unless properly compensated for, could cause personal injury. Remember, your personal
safety is your responsibility.
If you are an operator or CP techmotive-qualified service technician, you should become familiar with
the contents of this manual before operating, servicing, or maintaining any part of the CS7000
Controller. Familiarization with all components of the system can minimize the possibility that an
accident or injury might occur.
CP techmotive assumes no responsibility for personal injury or damage to equipment resulting from
misuse of these tools. After reviewing this manual you should also review all safety procedures
provided by your company and the equipment installer.
WARNING!
!!!!
Failure to follow these steps can result in serious personal
injury.
