size you wish to pre-set. Make sure the Die and Jig is a matched
pair. Use a 3/32 Allen Wrench to loosen the set screw located on
the large end of the jig (See adjacent fi gure). This ensures that
the Die moves freely prior to installing the Die and Jig assembly
into the Pre-Setting head unit.

Maintaining the Jig key in the Die slot, install the Jig and Die
by screwing the Jig into the Pre-Setting head and tighten
completely, turning clockwise. Do not over-tighten. Use ONLY
open-end wrenches provided.
3.3.
Screw the Die-Fixing bolt to secure the Die onto the Pre-Setting
head’s piston, use the 5mm hex wrench, provided. Apply
a small amount of lube, provided with the fi tting, to the
Jig threads. Do this on the fi rst and every 5th use of the
tool
thereafter.
