4. Never attempt to make a Tog-L-Loc/Lance-N-Loc joint through another Tog-L-Loc/Lance-N-Loc joint,
spot weld, or other obstruction.
5. The trigger must be pressed and held throughout the cycle to operate the unit.
6. When metals of dissimiliar thickness are to be joined, the thicker layer should be to the punch
side for best results.
7. The die blade, punch, and stripper must be in place when joining metals. These components are
crucial to join quality.
8. Joint quality is monitored nondestructively by measuring the “button dimension” of the formed joint.
Read QUALITY CONTROL in the Tog-L-Loc/Lance-N-Loc user’s guide for more detailed information.
The button dimension is controlled by adjusting the air pressure (See section 6.1).
