BTT35LS BOBTAIL Installation Tool
Alcoa Fastening Systems
An electric trigger switch controls the PULL and
RETURN strokes of the tool. As the trigger is pressed,
hydraulic PULL pressure is directed to front sides of
both pistons, moving them rearward. Fastener
Installation begins.
When the fastener installation is complete, the trigger
is released, causing the hydraulic units combination
valve to redirect the hydraulic RETURN pressure to the
rear side of the front piston moving it forward. The nose
assembly, with the tool, is pushed off the installed fas-
tener.
As the pistons reach the end of the RETURN stroke,
hydraulic pressure increases causing the hydraulic unit
idler valve to move to idle position (in Model 918) or
automatically shut off (in Model 940). The tool is now
ready to install another fastener.

CAUTION: Huck recommends that only Huck
POWERIG® Hydraulic Unit be used as the
power source for Huck installation equip-

high pressure for both PULL and RETURN,
and are not equipped with relief valves are
specifically not recommended, and may be
dangerous.
