GB2620PT / GB2620PTA INTALLATION TOOL
HOW TO SET-UP THE GB2620PT / GB2620PTA
WARNING:
Only qualified and trained operators should install, adjust or use the assembly power tool for non-threaded
mechanical fasteners.
WARNING:
Operator
MUST
read and understand all warnings and cautions.
WARNING:
It is required that eye protection, hearing protection and safety boots be worn at all times while handling this
equipment.
WARNING:
The users or the user’s employer should assess specific risks that could be present before each use based on
their application.
● Be sure there is adequate clearance for tool and operator's hands before proceeding. Keep fingers clear of
any moving parts. Keep fingers clear from fasteners and installed materials. Severe personal injury may result.
●
Verify the air lines and/or hydraulic hoses are not a trip hazard.
●
Ensure that there are no electrical cables, gas pipes, etc., which can cause a hazard if damaged by the tool
.
●
Verify that hydraulic hose fittings and couplings, air and electrical connections are secure before each use.
WARNING:
Do not pull fastener in the air. Personal injury from fastener ejecting may occur.
WARNING:
Do not carry from hoses or use as a hammer.
WARNING:
Do not use in explosive atmosphere.
WARNING:
Ensure air hose is securely connected to avoid possible hose whipping.
WARNING:
Always disconnect air supply, where applicable, when tool is not in use to prevent accidental start-up.
WARNING:
Do not exceed the maximum relief-valve setting stated on the tool and manual.
WARNING:
Do not operate when recommended pressures are exceeded as it could cause severe personal injury and or
damage the equipment.
WARNING:
Use only Gage Bilt hydraulic hoses and couplings, or equivalent, rated for 10,000 psi. (689.5 bar) working pressure.
CAUTION:
Do not use beyond the design intent.
CAUTION:
The use of Suspension Bracket assy (A-1593) is strongly recommended as it increases ergonomic flexibility and
reduces fatigue for users while installing fasteners.
1. Set hydraulic power unit to the recommended pressure, 7,400 psi (510.2bar) Max. for the pull and 3,200 psi (220.6 bar) Max. for the
return. Gage Bilt pressure gage assy (942280) (sold separately) is recommended to aid in this procedure. “See hydraulic power unit
manual for correct procedure when adjusting pressures”.
Note:
Power units require a free flow of air for cooling purposes and should therefore be positioned in a well ventilated area
free from hazardous fumes.
2. Turn off the hydraulic power unit. Wipe all couplers clean before connecting. Failure to do so can result in damage to the couplers and
cause overheating. Connect hydraulic hoses then electric cord to power supply.
3. Turn hydraulic power unit on and cycle tool five times by depressing actuator to ensure piston is in the full forward position.
4. Disconnect electric cord / air line from power supply.
5. Attach nose assembly:
5a. Screw collet assembly onto piston until top of
collet flat lines up with top of tool.
5b. If collet lock is not in piston groove, continue to turn
1/4 turn clockwise until ball lock engages in groove.
5c. Tighten set screw.
5d. Slide anvil over assembled collet. While pushing down on anvil,
install split ring, sleeve and retaining ring (furnished with tool).
(See proper data sheet for further instructions.)
6. Re-connect electric cord / air line into power supply.
Note: See GB7624 NOSE ASSEMBLY ATTACHMENT video as reference for
