6.2. Removal of Mandrel
1. Disconnect tool from factory air supply.
2. Remove tooling foot by removing two screws.
3. Remove mandrel holding shoulder screw (see Figure 19).
4. Open both post pickups, grasp front of mandrel, and carefully pull mandrel out of tool.
Use care not to push against stripping ear area of mandrel; doing so may damage cutting edge of mandrel.
5. Release post pickups and insert mandrel holding shoulder screw; do not tighten screw.
6. Re-install tooling foot with two screws.
6.3. Tool Preparation
1. Hold tool securely in either hand, with index finger positioned over trigger. Become familiar with weight and
feel of tool, while practicing aiming movement.
2. Place index finger on wire funnel lever (directly above trigger as shown in Figure 19) and operate wire
funnel lever several times. Note that as lever is pulled, wire funnel on top of tool (Figure 19) moves back and,
as lever is released, wire funnel moves forward. In operation, this permits wire to be properly positioned in tool
and clamped in place for termination cycle.
3. With clips loaded (Paragraph 6.4) and mandrel installed (Paragraph 6.1), connect tool to air supply (551.6
kPa [80 psi], min to 655 kPa [95 psi], max., Paragraph 2.1).
Never hold nose of tool against hand or body when squeezing trigger. Tool nose must be clear of all objects, or properly
positioned on terminal post, when tool is actuated.
