REPLACING THE DIES
After choosing the desired set of dies according to the diameter to be pressed, carefully
follow these instructions:
1.
Retract the piston by turning the oil check valve counterclockwise to open the dies
holder and have enough room to replace or fit the dies.
2.
Insert the die (item 1 in Figure 2) into the die holder (item 2 in Figure 2) so that the
reference pin (item 3 in Figure 2) is inserted into the hole on the die holder and locks
onto the ball crimping device (item 4 in Figure 2). Repeat the operation for the
remaining dies.
3.
To replace the die, apply pressure to the die in order to release the reference pin from
the ball crimping device.
Note:
as time passes, the pressure applied by the crimping device (item 4 in Figure 2)
inside the die holder on the die reference pin (item 3 in Figure 2) could weaken. In
this case it is necessary to adjust or replace it by means of the locking stud bolt
(item 5 in Figure 2).
