GB2628 INSTALLATION TOOL

 

 

 

HOW TO USE THE GB2628 / GB2628A 

Lockbolts 

 
1. Insert fastener through the work piece. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2. Slide collar over fastener. 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

3.  Insert fastener into nose assembly.  

 

 

 

 

 

4.  Press actuator to start cycle.

 

5.  Release actuator as soon as fastener breaks. 

6.  Repeat steps 1-5.

 

 

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 rivet 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-1594) is strongly recommended as it increases ergonomic flexibility and     

                        reduces fatigue for users while installing fasteners.
