Issue 05.2021 08903352 4-19
4.2 Procedure
1. Insert the ear of an OETIKER clamp (Fig. 5/1) into
the clamping area on the pincer head (Fig. 5/2).
For OETIKER Low Profile Clamps:
2.
Position the pincer jaws on the tensioning hooks
of the Low Profile Clamp.
2. Press the START button (Fig. 6/3).
Closure is initiated and the ear (Fig. 7/4) of the clamp is
closed.
In the case of Low Profile Clamps, initiating closure
reduces the clamp diameter to the required size for
engagement. Depending on the product, the clamp is
either engaged automatically or by applying contact
pressure on reaching the engagement position.
On reaching the predefined parameter values the jaws on the pincer head are opened.
INFO
The closure sequence is dependent on the closure data and on the predefined system data. It is initiated by
pressing the START button, for example.
A further closure operation can be performed.
If special heads are used – e.g. for closing OETIKER Low Profile Clamps – the details will differ from those shown in
the diagrams in Fig. 5 to Fig. 7.
