Gerpex Press Fit System
3. Press Fitting
3.1 Press fitting 16mm – 63mm (TH Profile)
Place jaws around steel sleeve and ensure jaw
alignment collar is inserted into the jaw groove as
shown fig 4.2. It is important to ensure that the
groove is engaged with the blue collar as this will lock
the fitting into the jaws and will prevent the jaws from
moving during the pressing operation, see fig 4.3:
Please ensure that the jaw pressing profile is compatible with the Emmeti Gerpex fitting range, see diagrams
on page 3 and in table 4.
Once aligned, press and hold the pressing tool trigger
until an audible click can be heard, this will confirm
that a full press has been completed, see fig. 4.4. Do
not attempt to abort a press once started.
If the machine fails or the battery drains mid-press
please replace and continue to confirm that the press
has been completed satisfactorily. A visual confirmation
of the press can be carried out once the jaws are
removed see fig 4.5 and refer to fig 1.1 to confirm.
