Gleason Reel TORQ-ARM Tool Clamp and Bail Installation guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the installation instructions for the HUBBELL ETQ-AM, ETQ-HK and ETHK air tool clamp and bail kits. This document provides step-by-step guidance on how to install these tool mounting kits for TORQ-ARM systems, including details on using the clamp, slide arm, and tool bail features. I’m ready to answer any questions you may have about the installation process or the functionality of these products.
  • What is included in the ETQ-AH kit?
    What is included in the ETQ-HK kit?
    What is included in the ETHK kit?
    What should I do before removing a tool from the TORQ-ARM?
    How to install tool in clamp?
1. Turn off electrical supply to TORQ-ARMTM.
2. Disconnect electrical cord from tool. Remove tool.
3. Disconnect safety clip on balancer cable from slide arm
or tool bail.
4. Remove lock nuts and flat washers from three bolts thru
lower arm. Carefully remove bolts and flat washers,
allowing slide arm to drop out of TORQ-ARM assembly.
Do not lose spacers on bolts (Figs 1 & 2).
5. Twist right hand (nut side) arm back to allow installation
of new slide arm and tool clamp (Fig 1).
6. Insert two lower bolts and flat washers into left hand arm.
Bolts should extend thru arm 3/8" (thickness of slider
arm or length of spacers). See Fig 2.
7. Place spacers on bolts (Fig 2).
8. Position new slide arm on spacers. Twist right hand arm
forward and align with bolts. Make sure spacers are on
bolts, then push bolts thru arm (Fig 1).
9. Insert third bolt and washer with spacer between arm
sections. Place cord clamp and flat washer on bolt and
secure with lock nut.
10. Place flat washers and lock nuts onto lower two bolts.
Tighten all three nuts.
11. Test slide action. Slightly loosen lock nuts if necessary.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
ETQ-AM & ETQ-HK AIR TOOL CLAMP KITS
Turn off electric power to TORQ-ARMTM prior to removing tool or power cord.
Failure to do so could result in damage to equipment or personal injury.
WARNING
INTRODUCTION: The electric tool clamp kits are available in two styles: Both ETQ-AH and ETQ-HK feature a tool clamp and small
tool insert. ETQ-AH has the clamp factory installed on the sliding portion of the TORQ-ARMTM. ETQ-HK includes a dowel pin for
installation on the sliding section of an existing TORQ-ARM.
12. Install tool in clamp. Use insert block for tools of less
than 1.25" diameter (Fig 3).
13. Attach cable from balancer to tool bail or hole in slide arm
(Fig 4). NOTE: Attaching balance cable to tool bail keeps
tool in more upright position when not in use. Attaching
cable to hole in slide arm allows easier in use positioning.
Adjust balancer.
14. Attach power cord to tool and turn power on.
ETQ-HK Installation (ETQ-HK consists of tool clamp and
dowel pin only)
1a. Follow steps 1–3, above.
2a. Drive out pin to remove existing tool clamp or u-joint.
3a. Install new clamp using new pin provided. Refer to 1 & 3.
4a. Follow steps 12 through 14 to complete installation.
NOTE: Please refer to opposite side of this sheet
for bail type electric tool hanger (kit ETHK) installation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
ETHK AIR TOOL BAIL KIT
Turn off electric power to TORQ-ARMTM prior to removing tool or power cord.
Failure to do so could result in damage to equipment or personal injury.
WARNING
INTRODUCTION: Kit ETHK features a tool hanging bail designed for conversion of a pneumatic TORQ-ARM to electric or for
replacement on a TORQ-ARM originally equipped with a tool bail. The tool bail is recommended for smaller tools producing less
torque and allows slightly greater range of motion than the clamp type holder shown on the revers side.
