Phastite
®
Connector Assembly: Tri-Tool
®
The Tri-Tool
®
is ideal for all sizes of Phastite
®
. It is a bench tool supplied complete with a 5ft (1.5 metre) hose
and quick connectors. The unit is also supplied complete with all required jaw inserts for assembling all Phastite
®
connectors including shapes and termination products (Figure 36).
Prior to placing the inserts into the Tri-Tool
®
, the following should be completed:
1. Mark the tubing.
2. Select the correct Phastite
®
connector.
3. Select the correct inserts.
4. Verify tube marking.
For 1/4” (6mm), 3/8” (10mm), 1/2” (12mm), 5/8
(16mm), 3/4” (20mm), 1” (25mm) connections
Part No: PH-16-TOOL
Weight: 71 lbs (32 Kg)

Tri-Tool Maintenance
NOTE: Caution should be taken. The Tri-Tool
®
is a high
pressure hydraulic tool - handle with care.
1. Inspect the hydraulic hose and connections regularly
for damage and leaks.
2. Refer to the Enerpac maintenance manual for proper
care.
3. In order to keep the equipment in good condition, we
recommend the following:
a. Check inserts and jaws for damage and wear
b. Replace any damaged parts with Parker or
Enerpac genuine parts.
c. Tri-Tool
®
service intervals are set at 5,000, 10,000,
20,000 and 30,000 cycles.
4. If the pump oil requires a top up, these are the
ENERPAC order codes:
HF95X for 1 litre
HF95Y for 5 litres
HF95T for 20 litres

Installation Using Phastool
®
with Hand Pump
1. Ensure that the control wheel at the front of the pump is
turned all the way clockwise to enable hydraulic pressure
to build in the system before attempting to assemble any
Phastite
®
connectors using the Hand Operated Pump
(Figure 43). The pump is now ready to operate.
2. To operate the Phastool
®
using the Hand Operated
Pump, lift the actuator handle all the way up, then press
it all the way down, the hydraulic pressure will build in the
system with every stroke, this can be monitored on the
pressure gauge.
3. Repeat step 2 continuously as required until the Phastite
®
connector is completely assembled.
4. WATCH FOR METAL-TO-METAL CONTACT. Metal-to-
metal contact is achieved when the Phastite
®
collar and
body are touching (Figure 44).
5. Once the Phastite
®
connector is completely assembled,
relieve the pressure from the pump by rotating the control
wheel at the front of the pump all the way anti-clockwise.
This will allow the moving jaw to return to the open
position. The Phastite
®
connection can now be removed
from the tool by pulling upwards.
6. Inspect the assembled Phastite
®
connector and tubing
for correct assembly and tube insertion:
a. Only one tubemarker line should be visible at each
end of the connection (Figure 45). If two lines are
visible and there is metal-to-metal contact, then a
new connection (new connector and new tubing) is
needed.
b. Check for metal-to-metal contact (visual). If there is
no metal-to-metal contact, then a new connection
(new connector and new tubing) is needed.
When the tool and hand operated pump are ready to be
packed away, ensure that the control wheel at the front of
the pump is turned all the way anti-clockwise to allow the
hydraulic pressure to vent from the pump, and the tool’s
moving jaw to fully retract. Only after this is done, re-attach
the pump mode wheel and turn it to ‘CLOSE’ to stop the
pump from leaking hydraulic oil when in transit or storage.

a. Ensure that the pump’s handle locking hook is latched to the hoop.
b. Next disconnect the hose from the tool and pump via the quick connects. It is normal to experience slight
weeping of hydraulic oil during disconnection. Re-apply the dust caps to all quick connects.
c. Remove the inserts from the tool jaws and return them to their aperture in the tool travel case.
d. Remove the boot, handles or vice plates from the tool and return them to their aperture in the tool travel case.
e. Return the tool, hose, pressure gauge tee and pump to their respective apertures in the tool and pump travel
cases.
f. All travel cases should always be stored and transported in the upright position.
