GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR MAINTENANCE OF TOOLS
1.
Always verify the proper size connector for the conductor, by checking the color code and the printing on the
connector.
2.
NOTE: CONNECTIONS UTILIZING THIS TOOL ARE U.L. LISTED AND C.S.A. CERTIFIED ONLY WHEN
PANDUIT COMPRESSION CONNECTORS ARE USED. USE OF ANY OTHER BRAND OF
COMPRESSION CONNECTORS IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
Consult product packaging, Panduit catalog or website for information on recommended
connectors.
3.
Daily maintenance is important to keep the tool in good working condition. Keep the tool head portion clean
and free from debris. Excessive dirt and grit can contribute to the premature wear of the tool's internal parts.
Always replace the dust cap on the coupler, and store the tool in its clean, dry carrying case when not in use.
Particular attention should be made in keeping the tool head openings free of foreign matter and debris.
When using the tool, regularly check that no foreign matter or debris exists in the open areas between the
piston and tool head. Solvent can be used on the tool head to remove any foreign matter or debris. A tool
that is dirty with excessive foreign matter may jam and become damaged during operation.
4.
The hydraulic system has been calibrated and sealed at the factory. Consult our Customer Service
Department or your local distributor if hydraulic problems are experienced.
5.
As long as the daily maintenance procedures are adequately carried out, the tool will provide quality service
for years. However, if problems are experienced, please contact our Customer Service Department at:
1-800-777-3300.
5.
Avoid dropping the tool. Extreme shock may damage the hydraulic circuit or tool head, and result in
malfunction of the tool.
6.
If the tool is kept in cold temperatures below 23°F/-5°C for any extended time, it is advisable to return the tool
to room temperature for 1 hour before using.
