12.2 OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Lay the notcher on an even surface. Line up the appropriate die with the base by rotating
the body plate. The appropriate die size should face away from the base for maximum
leverage. Insert the tube into proper die. Push the lever all the way down to ensure that
the notch and dimple are properly formed. Release the lever. Turn the tube 180° so that
the dimples that have been formed line up with the two set screws in the holder pin.
Push the lever again. Release. If the tube is already brazed with one end to the pipework,
operate the notcher like pliers by using the lever and base as handles.
12.3 MAINTENANCE
12.3.1 LOOSE HOLDER PINS
In case holder pins are loose, unscrew both screws on the name plate, lift up name plate
and tighten the set screw for the holder pin with a 3 mm hex wrench.
12.3.2 DIMPLE /DEPTH STOP ARE TOO SHALLOW
The notcher tips in the holder pins are preadjusted at the factory to provide dimple /
depth stop of the proper depth.
In the dimples become too shallow the reason can be loose holder pins. Check and
tighten (point 12.3.1). If this doesn’t help, put lever in the down position, turn notcher on
its side and tighten the 19 mm nut under the base plate until it is firmly screwed down.
The indicator that the nut is properly tightened is that the lever stays in the down
position when it is picked up and has to be physically brought to the up position.
