3. PREPARATION

Air Alimentation
All tools are operated with compressed air at an optimum pressure of 5.5 bar. We recommend the use
of pressure regulators and automatic oiling/filtering systems on the main air supply. These should be
fitted within 3 meters of the tool (see diagram below) to ensure maximum tool life and minimum tool
maintenance.
The air supply pipes used must have a suitable pressure resistance. Air hoses should be oil resistant,
have an abrasion resistant exterior and should be armored where operating conditions may result in
hoses being damaged. All air hoses MUST have a minimum bore diameter of 6.4 millimeters or l/4
inch.
Read servicing daily details.

Stroke Adjustment

This adjustment is necessary to ensure optimum insert deformation. It is suggested, therefore, that a
test plate with the same thickness and hole size as workpiece be used.
If deformation is insufficient, the insert will rotate inside the application. If
deformation is excessive, thread distortion will occur and possibly drive screw
fracture.
The stroke is adjusted by the amount the rear casing 86 is screwed in or out. To
shorten stroke, screw in; to lengthen stroke, unscrew the rear casing but never
more than 5 turns from the fully "IN" position unless dismantling the tool.
Lock the stroke set finger 88 into the rear casing.
Tip: adjust the deformation from the fully screwed in position, and gradually
unscrew it until you reach the desired deformation.

Operating Procedure

* Connect tool to air supply.
* Offer up insert, lip first to drive screw. A light pressure will start the motor and automatically thread
the insert up against nose and stop.
* Insert fastener into application squarely.
* Fully depress trigger. This will both place insert into the application and reverse it off the drive screw..
