HYDRAULIC THREAD PREPARATION 

 

IMPORTANT:

 

Be sure to use thread sealant on all hydraulic fittings, Loctite® 30534 or similar Teflon® infused pipe  

 

 

   dope is recommended. 

CAUTION:

 

Teflon tape is an excellent thread sealer, however, if it is not proper-

 

 

   ly applied, pieces may enter the hydraulic system and cause malfunction and damage. Use 1 1/2 wraps  

 

 

   of tape on each thread. Cut off all loose tape ends. Tighten until fitting feels snug and then go 1/2 to a  

 

 

   full turn past  that point. 

CAUTION:

 Over tightening can easily distort the threads. 

DESCRIPTION 

        

                                                                              

 The GB706LGP hydraulic installation tools designed specifically for the efficient installation of 3/16" LGP® 
lockbolts. It weighs just over 3 lbs. 

(1.36 kg) 

and can be operated in any position with one hand. It has a .500 

(12.7mm) rivet setting stroke and a rated pull load of 5800 lbs. 

(25.8 kN).

 

 
The  GB706LGP  installation  tool  operates  on  hydraulic  pressure  developed  by  the  GB940  Powerunit  set  at 
5600 psi 

(386.1  bar) 

maximum PULL pressure and 2400 psi 

(165.5  bar) 

maximum RETURN pressure. The 

tool  comes  equipped with  12  feet  of  hydraulic hoses (206119),  hydraulic  coupling-male  (585047),  hydraulic 
coupling-female (585038), electric actuator (240122) and electric cord (206136).  

MAINTENANCE 

 

WARNING

Excessive contact with hydraulic oil and lubricants should be avoided.

 

 

WARNING:

 

Maintenance personnel 

MUST

 

read and understand all warnings and cautions.

 

 

WARNING

Be sure powerunit is disconnected before cleaning or when replacing worn or damaged 

                      components. Severe personal injury may occur if power source is not disconnected.

 

 

The performance of any tool depends upon the practice of good maintenance. 
Following these minimal requirements for service and care will extend the life of your tool. 
 

*Only use a hydraulic power source equipped with relief valves and pressures set within 

 

specified limits.  

 Consult Powerunit Manual for procedure to set Pull and Return pressures. 
*Keep hydraulic system free of dirt. Avoid letting couplers contact a dirty floor. 
*Do not use as a hammer to force fasteners into holes or otherwise abuse tool. 
*Proper care by operators is necessary in maintaining full productivity and reducing down  
  time.  

 

    

*Check tool, all hoses and all couplings daily for damage or air/hydraulic leaks. Tighten or 

    

  replace (if necessary). 

  

*To replace super-grip jaw ass

=

y (30601-CS):

 

 

1. Remove cap (705112) from back of piston ass

=

y (705210).  

  

 

2. Remove spacer (60843) and old super-grip jaw ass

=

y (30601-CS).  

  

 

3. Insert new super-grip jaw ass

=

y (30601-CS) and spacer (60843).  

  

 

4. Apply removable Loctite

7

 to the threads of cap (705112).  

   

 

5. Thread cap (705112) approximately 3/4 into back of piston ass

=

y (705210).  

  

 

6. Insert spent pintail into super-grip jaw ass

=

y (30601-CS) and continue threading cap 

 

 

    (705112) until spent pintail ratchets through super-grip jaw ass

=

y (30601-CS). 

  

 

7. Let Loctite setup.
