Avoiding hazards caused by defective Geberit pressing
attachments
Geberit pressing attachments (pressing jaws, pressing collars,
adapter jaws) are exposed to a great deal of stress during the
pressing procedure and will wear out. The use of worn or damaged
pressing attachments can lead to serious injuries or death as a result
of flying fragments.
• Only use pressing attachments if they are in perfect working order.
• Adhere to maintenance intervals.
• Regularly inspect pressing attachments for defects and damage
before and after every use. Check for incipient cracks in the
pressing contour and on the flange.
• If incipient cracks are detected in the pressing attachment, cease
using it.
Avoiding damage to Geberit pressing attachments caused by

diameter of the pressfittings to be processed.
Geberit pressing attachments can be damaged by faulty pressing
operations or use; for example, if foreign bodies are pressed along
with the pressfitting.
• Only use Geberit pressing attachments that carry the compatibility
mark .
• Do not tilt the pressing attachment on the pressfitting.
• If you suspect that the pressing attachment is damaged, replace it
and have the damaged pressing attachment tested by an
authorised repair shop.
