Setup And Operation - Greenlee Intelli-PUNCH Mode D'emploi

Setup and Operation

Punching
Note: The Intelli-PUNCH™ driver is a microprocessor-
controlled hydraulic punching tool with an automatic
retraction feature that will engage after punch comple-
tion to save time and save the operator from having to
manually retract the tool. However, care should be taken
to make sure punches and dies are not bottomed out
and that the tool releases upon punch completion. There
are circumstances that can cause the automatic retrac-
tion function to fail.
1. Refer to the illustrations on the following pages for
proper punch, die, spacer, and draw stud setup and
assembly.
2. Select the appropriate punch, die, and draw stud for
the desired hole size.
3. Determine and mark the exact location for the hole.
Use a Greenlee Kwik-Stepper
hole slightly larger than the draw stud being used.
4. Depress the Return button to reset the ram to the
starting position.
5. Thread the appropriate draw stud completely into
the ram in the punching head.
6. If needed, place an appropriately sized spacer on
the draw stud.
7. Slide the corresponding die onto the draw stud.
The open end of the die should face away from the
punching head.
8. Insert the draw stud through the pilot hole in the
material being punched.
9. Thread the punch (cutting edge facing the material)
onto the draw stud until the punch assembly is tight
on the material surface.
Note:
• The 3-1/2" to 6" punches require a punch sleeve
prior to assembly to the draw stud.
• All of the punch threads must be engaged with
the draw stud threads. If any punch threads are
not engaged, remove spacer and reassemble the
setup.
• For SPEED PUNCH
draw stud (cutting edge facing the material) and
secure the SPEED LOCK to the draw stud.
10. Press and hold the trigger to complete the punch
cycle. The Intelli-PUNCH™ driver will automati-
cally retract when it senses the punch is completely
through the material.

• Under certain circumstances, such as with thin
sheet steel or very low punch forces, this unit may
not initiate auto-retract or auto-retract may be
initiated prematurely. Care should be taken to not
bottom out punches, which will cause damage
after punch completion. In the event auto-retract is
prematurely activated, retry punching the hole.
• The auto-retract feature can be overridden at any
time to stop ram retraction by depressing the
trigger.
• If overpressure is reached during the punch cycle,
the tool will automatically shut off and return the
ram to the starting position. This may indicate the
operation attempted is beyond the capacity of the
tool. The overpressure condition will also occur
when the tool reaches full stroke. (Care should be
taken to avoid driving this tool to full stroke, as this
may cause damage to the punch and die).
11. Unscrew the punch from the draw stud. Slide the die
off the draw stud and remove any slugs from the die.
Note: For SPEED PUNCH
LOCK. Slide the punch off the draw stud; then slide
the die off the draw stud and remove any slugs from
the die.
