All tools are operated with compressed air at an optimum pressure of 5.5 bar. We recommend the use of pressure regulators and
filtering systems on the main air supply. These should be fitted within 3 metres of the tool (see diagram below) to ensure
maximum tool life and minimum tool maintenance.
Air supply hoses should have a minimum working effective pressure rating of 150% of the maximum pressure produced in the system
or 10 bar, whichever is the highest. Air hoses should be oil resistant, have an abrasion resistant exterior and should be armoured where
operating conditions may result in hoses being damaged. All air hoses MUST have a minimum bore diameter of 6.4 millimetres or
inch.

•
Before you use the tool, remove screw 57 on top of the oil reservoir of the intensifier to allow venting. Replace screw when transporting
the intensifier.
•
Ensure that either a nose assembly or a swivel head suitable for the fastener is fitted (see pages 8-10 and 12-15).
•
Connect the tool to the intensifier and the intensifier to the air supply.
•
Insert the fastener stem into the nose of the tool. If using a nose assembly, the fastener should remain held in by the vacuum system. If
not, adjust the vacuum extraction rotary valve 46.
•
If using a swivel head, the vacuum extraction is disabled but the jaws themselves will grip the fastener.
•
Bring the tool with the fastener to the application so that the protruding fastener enters squarely the hole of the application.
•
Fully actuate the trigger. The tool cycle will broach the fastener and with standard nose assemblies the broken stem will be projected to the
rear of the tool, when the trigger is released.
ADJUSTING THE VACUUM EXTRACTION
•
Using a screwdriver, turn rotary valve 46 until the air flow at the rear of the tool ceases.
•
With the nose of the tool pointing downwards, insert a fastener into the nose and hold it into position.
•
Turn the rotary valve either way until there is sufficient suction to retain the fastener.
