Thanks, Ben

Denna risk gäller för alla mutterdragarstationer som är utrustade med mothåll eller styranordningar för arbetsstycken.
Operatören måste absolut se till, att de motmomenthållare som eventuellt finns eller styranordningarna greppar innan skruvprocessen startas. Annars skulle skruvapparaten kunna glida av, vilket skulle kunna leda till att operatören skadas.

My guess is that it is \"steering\" and not \"control\" here.

Thank you again! You are very astute in presuming the original source of the text as being German! The source text I was working from was a rather confusing at times translation into Swedish!

Explanation:
The text seems to be a (not 100 % perfect) translation, probably from a German original. The purpose of the "styranordningar" is to prevent the workpiece from rotating when the bolts are tightened. No further description is given in the text.
