Calibration Procedure

Step 1: Prepare Power Tool

Select the Hilti SBT 4-A22 power tool with GEAR #2 engaged.

Step 2: Attach S-CS NG

Attach the S-CS NG component to the power tool's chuck.

Step 3: Insert and Drive Fastener

Insert a fastener into the S-CS NG component and begin driving it into the base material. A warning symbol ⚠️ indicates caution.

Step 4: Insert Component into Base Material

Insert a component (e.g., S-DG BT M8/7) into the base material. A warning symbol ⚠️ is displayed.

Step 5: Insert Fastener into Component

Insert a fastener into the component previously placed in the base material.

Step 6: Prepare for Torque Setting

Switch the Hilti SBT 4-A22 power tool to GEAR #1. Attach the torque tool X-BT 1/4" to the power tool.

Step 7: Apply Torque

Drive the fastener with the torque tool until it reaches the set torque (e.g., 8 Nm), indicated by an audible "click" ?. A warning symbol ⚠️ is displayed.

Step 8: Attach Component to Base

Attach a component (e.g., S-BT GR NG M8/7) to the base material.

Step 9: Secure Component

Secure the component by driving a fastener into it.

Step 10: Final Fastening

Complete the fastening process for the component.

Step 11: Final Check

Visually inspect the installed component for proper seating and security.

Application Procedure

Step 1: Prepare Power Tool

Select the Hilti SBT 4-A22 power tool with GEAR #2 engaged.

Step 2: Attach S-CS NG

Attach the S-CS NG component to the power tool's chuck.

Step 3: Insert and Drive Fastener

Insert a fastener into the S-CS NG component and begin driving it into the base material. A warning symbol ⚠️ indicates caution.

Step 4: Align Components

Align the fastener and component correctly before insertion into the base material.

Step 5: Insert Components into Base

Insert the aligned fastener and component assembly into the base material.

Step 6: Prepare for Torque Setting

Switch the Hilti SBT 4-A22 power tool to GEAR #1.

Step 7: Apply Torque

Drive the fastener until the torque tool indicates the set torque (e.g., 8 Nm) with an audible "click" ?.

Step 7a/7b: Set Torque Limits for Calibration

Adjust the torque settings on the torque tool to the maximum (Max.) and minimum (Min.) values as required for calibration.

Step 8: Attach Component to Base

Attach a component (e.g., S-BT GR NG M8/7) to the base material.

Step 9: Secure Component with Torque

Secure the component by driving a fastener with the torque tool set to 8 Nm. The torque tool displays the set torque (Tinst 8 Nm).

Step 10: Final Fastening

Complete the fastening process for the component.

Step 11: Final Check

Visually inspect the installed component for proper seating and security.
