Hydratong Wrenches
To attach or remove downhole tools, use the Hydratong wrenches to join or break the joint.
1. To join, apply TJC to threads and hand tighten joint.
2. Attach Hydratong in either the join or break position.
• Attach chain tongs (1) to both sides of joint. Place tongs as close to joint as possible.
• Remove snapper pins (2) from slide pins (3), and insert slide pins into wrench handles (4).
• Attach each end of hydraulic cylinder (5) to slide pins and insert snapper pins.
3. Remove all slack from wrench and joint.
Moving tools will kill or injure. Shut off drill string power when anyone can
be struck by moving or thrown tools. Never use pipe wrenches on drill string.
