The present invention generally provides a running tool which can be released using hydraulic pressure and can provide continued rotation to a liner hanger or other tool disposed below and rotationally connected to the running tool. In one aspect, a hydraulic assembly is provided to release a thrusting cap from rotation so that a threaded connection between the running tool and the liner hanger can be released. On release of the liner hanger, a lock nut travels down a threaded surface of the thrusting cap and engages the thrusting cap to continue rotation through the thrusting cap. Additionally, the running tool may include a mechanical release operable without the assistance of hydraulic pressure.
