INSTALLING AIR SUPPLY:
1) Make sure that the foot pedal is not activated.
2) Make sure that the main air supply valve is turned OFF.
3) Make sure that the tank drain valve is CLOSED.
4) Supply the air tank inlet with 125 psi (max) - 80 psi (min). of clean dry air. Use a
filter / regulator on the inlet line if necessary. We recommend a minimum of 1/2"
diameter air line.
INITIAL TESTING:
1) Slowly open the main air supply valve and check the pressure at the regulator on the
air tank.
For
Medium Duty Tooling
the air tank regulator should be set at 100 psi.
For
Light Duty Tooling
the air tank regulator should be set at 80 psi.
If the gauge does not read the correct pressure, adjust and lock the regulator.
NOTE! The tank pressure must be higher than the required regulator
pressure in order to set the regulator pressure.
2) Making sure all guards are in place, operate the foot pedal.
WARNING!
THIS ACTION ACTIVATES THE HIGH PRESSURE CLINCHING
STROKE.
Keep your foot on the foot pedal,
and the machine will activate the high speed
clinching stroke and return to the open position automatically.
3) The clinching stroke is factory set for a 1 second automatic return. If the foot pedal
is released before the automatic return the clinching stroke will end as a safety
feature.
If the automatic return is too fast or too slow the automatic return valve must be
adjusted - see maintenance section.
4) The foot pedal must be released and re-activated to repeat the clinching stroke.
