FILL AND BLEED PROCEDURE FOR
ASSEMBLED TOOLS THAT NEED RE-
BLEEDING
(Figure 12)
If the tool is not developing full stroke or is not
developing enough force to either install a fastener or
eject off an installed fastener, it may be necessary to add
oil to the pull and return system of the tool.
1. To add fluid to the PULL or RETURN side ports, first
make sure Cutoff Valves (70) are in the fully closed
position.
2. Remove Reservoir Plugs (75) and thread two
Reservoirs (66) with O-Rings (91) in place into the
ports of the Manifold Block (68).
3. Remove the Caps (65) and Piston Assys (67) from
the Reservoirs, and add fluid to the Reservoirs.
NOTE: Do not fill past the inside shoulder of the
Reservoirs (NO higher than Vent Hole). See Step
2 of figure 6
4. Replace Piston Assemblies and Caps on
Reservoirs.
5. Open the Cutoff Valves 1/4 turn counterclockwise.
Thread Piston Assemblies down to force fluid into
the system, and until Piston Assemblies cannot be
turned further.
6. Close Cutoff Valves tightly, and check tool stroke.
Repeat Steps 3 through 5 if necessary. If stroke is
correct, install a test fastener.
7. Remove the Reservoir Assemblies and replace the
two Reservoir Plugs (75) and tighten.
CAUTION:
Oil may be present in Reservoir tubes. Remove
with care.
