All tools are operated with compressed air at an optimum pressure of 5.5 bar. We recommend the use of pressure regulators and
automatic oiling/filtering systems on the main air supply. These should be fitted within 3 metres of the tool (see diagram below) to ensure
maximum tool life and minimum tool maintenance.
Air supply hoses should have a minimum working effective pressure rating of 150% of the maximum pressure produced in the system
or 10 bar, whichever is the highest. Air hoses should be oil resistant, have an abrasion resistant exterior and should be armoured where
operating conditions may result in hoses being damaged. All air hoses MUST have a minimum bore diameter of 6.4 millimetres or

inch.

OPTION 2
Ensure that the correct nose equipment is fitted.
Connect the tool to the air supply.
Insert the fastener into the tool ensuring the fastener locates in the
nose adaptor.
With the fastener on the tool locate it into the prepared hole in the
application.
Operate the trigger. The tool will rotate the fastener bolt whilst
holding the nut stationary. At a predetermined load the bolt shears
leaving the fastener placed in the application.

OPTION 1
Ensure that the correct nose equipment is fitted.
Connect the tool to the air supply.
Place the fastener into the prepared hole of the application.
Locate the nose adaptor onto the head of the fastener, holding it
square to the application and applying slight pressure.
Operate the trigger. The tool will rotate the fastener bolt whilst
holding the nut stationary. At a predetermined load the bolt shears
leaving the fastener placed in the application.
