ABSTRACT:
The output shaft of a nut runner for tightening a fastener such as a bolt is first rotated with a first torque at a first speed. When the tightening torque of the output shaft reaches a preset switching torque, the first torque first speed rotation of the output shaft is interrupted, and thereafter the output shaft is rotated with a second torque at a second speed. When the tightening torque then reaches a preset snug torque, the second torque second speed rotation of the output shaft is interrupted, and thereafter the output shaft is rotated with a third torque at a third speed. When the tightening torque reaches a preset final torque, the third torque third speed rotation of the output shaft is stopped, thus completing the tightening of the fastener.
