IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE
WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE, AND/OR
SERIOUS INJURY.
BC-RAD SELECT TOOLS ARE SAFE AND RELIABLE. NOT FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS AND
INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED HERE CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE TOOL, AND INJURY TO
THE OPERATOR AND FELLOW WORKERS.
W. CHRISTIE (INDUSTRIAL) LTD IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SUCH INJURY.
BC-RAD SELECT SYSTEM SAFETY
The intended use of the BC-RAD Select Tool System is for commercial and industrial bolting
applications.
Do not operate the BC-RAD Select Tool System before reading and understanding this user manual and
noting the Safety Notices displayed on the BC-RAD Select Tool System and throughout this manual.
Only qualified personnel with training in the safe operation of torque tooling and the BC-RAD Select
Tool System should attempt the installation, operation and diagnosis of the BC-RAD Select Tool System.
The BC-RAD Select Tool System is connected to high voltage power and consists of external rotating
parts. Improper training and use can cause serious or fatal injury.
Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the BC-RAD Select Tool System; doing so will void warranty. If
breakdown, malfunction or damage occurs and the BC-RAD Select Tool System fails to operate
correctly, contact W. Christie (Industrial) LTD Technical Support (refer to Section 7.0 – Contact Us).
The BC-RAD Select Tool System should only be used if environmental storage and operation
specifications have been met. Refer to Section 1.2.3 – Environmental Specifications.
Do not operate the BC-RAD Select Tool System in explosive atmospheres, including, but not limited to,
the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. The BC-RAD Select Tool System creates sparks which
could ignite these substances.
Do not expose the BC-RAD Select Tool System to wet conditions. Water in the BC-RAD Select Tool
System will cause damage to the tool and increase the risk of electric shock.
After long durations of use, the BC-RAD Select Tool System will become hot. It is recommended to use
the tool in short intervals and allow for cooling between uses to prevent injury to the operator or damage
to the BC-RAD Select Tool System.
While operating the BC-RAD Select Tool System, always wear safety goggles and keep all body parts
clear of moving parts and the reaction arm contact point.
Never exceed the Maximum Torque of the BC-RAD Select Tool System. Failure to comply will result in
void warranty.
The BC-RAD Select Tool System has been calibrated by a qualified Calibration Technician; calibration
must be done by a qualified Calibration Technician. Improper calibration can cause damage to the tool
and joint.

BC-RAD SELECT LI-ION BATTERY PACK SAFETY
Only use the BC-RAD Select Li-Ion Battery Pack with the B-RAD Select Tool System. The use of other
batteries with the BC-RAD Select Tool System will cause damage to the tool.
The BC-RAD Select Li-Ion Battery Pack should only be charged on the BC-RAD Select Battery Charger.
If an incompatible charger is used, damage to the BC-RAD Select Battery will occur.
Keep the BC-RAD Select Li-Ion Battery Pack away from any metal objects. If the battery terminals are
connected by a metal object, the battery will short and will cause damage to the battery and injury to the
operator.
Do not expose the BC-RAD Select Li-Ion Battery Pack to wet conditions. This will cause damage to the
BC-RAD Select Battery and increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not use faulty or deformed BC-RAD Select Batteries. Do not attempt to open the BC-RAD Select
Battery. Do not short circuit the BC-RAD Select Battery. Failure to comply will cause damage to the BCRAD Select Battery and injury to the operator.
If liquid is ejected from the BC-RAD Select Battery, avoid contact. If contact with skin occurs,
immediately flush with water. If contact with eyes occurs, immediately flush with water and seek medical
aid. Liquid from the BC-RAD Select Battery may cause irritation and/or burns.
BC-RAD Select Li-Ion Battery Packs cannot be disposed of with regular waste. Return BC-RAD Select
Batteries to W. Christie (Industrial) LTD.
# Ensure battery is changed when the charge level reaches 2 bars. Using the tool at 2 or less bars of
battery power will affect calibration figures #
