Actuating The SWi20/25TIEX
Follow the SWi Tool Operation instructions, using the
following instructions to actuate the SWi20/25TIEX tool
in particular:
When advance (+) is selected, pumping the handle of
the pump will advance the cylinder and spread the jaws.
Figure 7:
When using multiple tools, ensure that the spread of all
tools correspond to keep the spreading force balanced.
Retracting The SWi20/25TIEX
Selecting retract (-) will de-pressurise the cylinder and
cause it to retract under the force of its internal spring.
The handle does not need to be pumped to retract the
tool.
When using multiple tools, exercise caution while
retracting to keep the spreading force balanced as the
gap is closed.
Air Relief Instructions
In the event of air build-up within the cylinder-pump sub-
assembly, the following procedure should be executed:
1. Select advance (+), and pump the handle to extend
the piston around 30 mm [1.2"].
2. Remove the Oil Fill Screw using an appropriate hex
key, ensuring the tool is on its side with the Oil Fill
facing upwards.
3. Replenish any missing hydraulic oil by pouring into
the Oil Fill hole until excess spills over.
4. Sit the tool with the wedge facing uphill (and the
open Oil Fill hole still facing upwards) on a gentle
slope, around 30 degrees from horizontal.
5. Very slowly move the selector from advance (+) to
retract (-), and wait for the tool to fully retract.
6. Replace the Oil Fill Screw.
7. Repeat this procedure 3 times.
