8. Insert scribe through window or right side of tool and move clips forward over clip guide anvil until first clip
passes over rear catch and rear catch “clicks” into position behind first clip.
Front catch of tool stops clip train as soon as first clip passes over rear catch.
9. Remove scribe from tool and then release trigger. Push rod will fully retract.
10. Again squeeze but do not release trigger. Push rod will move forward and, if tool is correctly loaded, will
carry one clip with it. Check that clip is released from push rod and then release trigger. If tool has not been
correctly loaded (no clip present in push rod), repeat steps (7) through (10) and in step (8) be sure that rear
catch “clicks” into position behind first clip.
6.5. Clip Positioning Adjustment
The clip positioning adjustment consists of a positioner dial marked with the letters “A”, “B”, and “C”. See
Figure 22. A detent within the positioner dial, together with spring tension applied to the internal clip positioner,
causes the positioner dial to “click” into the selected setting with applicable letter at top of dial. The setting of the
positioner dial determines the distance the clip travels as it is applied to the post. The tool push rod pushes the
clip onto the post the shortest distance in the “C” setting and the longest distance in the “A” setting. See
Figure 22. Select appropriate clip positioning setting for each termination before inserting wire into tool.
Ensure that clip positioner dial is properly positioned in detent on selected setting (letter squarely on top of dial). Do not
squeeze trigger with positioner dial out of detent position (between letters).
