Putting into service
Connect the HPE strapping tool to the compressed air supply by means of the quick-action
coupling mechanism which is supplied. Maximum air pressure (see technical data).
Important: This tool may only be operated together with a compressed air maintenance unit
consisting of a pressure reducer, water separator and lubricator. It cleans the compressed
air, removes condensation and constantly supplies the motor with the required quantity of oil.
The lubricator is adjusted at the top by means of a screwdriver in such a way that a drop of
oil falls into the sight glass for each strapping. Rotation in a clockwise direction should result
in less oil, and in the opposite direction more. Maximum hose length between the
maintenance unit and the strapping tool: 5 m.
The compressed air motor may be driven during the entire operation with filtered and
lubricated compressed air. In terms of quantity approximately 3 - 5 drops are required per

1 m
air; this corresponds to 0.12 - 0.2 g/m
as a lubricating oil. It should have a low viscosity and be free of resin and acids. A viscosity
of 2 - 4° E at 50° (12-30cSt) has been proven to be suitable (see viscosity table for other
temperature ranges). Permissible motor temperatures are from -30 to +100° C.
However, for ambient temperatures of under +5° C there is a risk of icing. In this case it is
recommended that dry air or corresponding lubricants which are resistant to icing be used
(e.g. "Killfrost Anti-Eis").
Caution! Wear respiratory equipment when antifreeze agents are used.
The following oils may
be used:
The tool may be put into operation after connection to the compressed air supply and the
maintenance unit is adjusted.

In no case it is allowed to run the tool without oil being in
the lubricator of the maintenance unit, as this would
immediately destroy the compressed air motor. No warranty
in that case.
