2.2 COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE MANUFACTURER
For any information related to the machine (use, maintenance, spare parts) always state Model, Serial
Number, Manufacturing Year and Order. These data can be found in the machine-identifying table.
2.3 TYPOLOGY AND USING FIELD
Puller-tensioner mod. AFS303 is suitable for stringing one bundled conductor with max. diameter of 36
mm and for recovering one rope with 10 mm in diameter with a connector with max. diameter of 28
mm.
The machine is controlled by a hydraulic system that allows the machine to automatically work in
PULLER or in TENSIONER mode.
The power transmission to the large groove bull-wheels is transmitted through a closed hydraulic
circuit with a variable delivery pump and fixed displacement motor, with the possibility to change
continuously the speed in both rotating directions.
A hydraulic vacuum brake stops automatically the two bull-wheels should the work be interrupted and
a damage in the hydraulic circuit occur.
The machine is equipped with rapid couplers for connection to all types of reel winders and reel
elevators made by Tesmec; the frame is complete with a rigid axle for towing at max. 30 km/h.
2.4 PERFORMANCES
PULLER PERFORMANCES
Max. pull 25 kN
Speed at max. pull 2,5 km/h
Max. speed 4,5 km/h
TENSIONER PERFORMANCES
Max. tension 25 kN
Max. speed 5 km/h
ATTENTION: the use with rope or conductor with diameter smaller than the max.
admitted one, will reduce the max. applicable pull in accordance with the min. granted
working load of the rope or of the conductor.
Performances are referred to the machine without optional, at sea level and at 20°C.
