Automatic press facility The tool features an automatic pressing facility. This ensures a full pressing at all times. For safety reasons, the automatic pressing facility only switches off after reaching a specific pressing force or travelling a specific distance (after approx. 2 seconds). Until then, the pressing process can be interrupted at any time by releasing the Start button (1).

Press collar Important note! Intermediate jaw ZB 301 or ZB 302 must be used for nominal sizes 42 and 54. Intermediate jaw ZB 321 is used for nominal sizes 76.1; 88.9 and 108.0. Nominal sizes 76.1and 88.9 are pressed in one work operation. Nominal size 108.0 is first pre-pressed with intermediate jaw ZB 321.
RE-PRESSING Re-pressing is always necessary if pressing has not been fully completed. There are a few peculiarities that must be observed for re-pressing, in contrast to pressing. Ensure that the claws of the intermediate jaw enclasp the press collar pins during the re-pressing process. During the re-pressing, the tool can be started, even though the claws are not enclasping the pins properly.
Check moving segments (C), catch (V) and curved sections (D) for ease of action. Once a year: Have press jaws, intermediate jaws, press collars and press tools checked by an authorised NOVOPRESS workshop. (Also see warranty conditions for new equipment) Use GENUINE NOVOPRESS REPLACEMENT PARTS ONLY.
