BXT 2 BXT 2-19 1. Preface The objective of this maintenance manual is to familiarize a skilled technician with the tools particular features and enable him to repair and maintain it independently. Current issues of the operating instructions and the concerning product information sheets are essential elements of this manual and have to be checked as well.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 3. Tool Design 3.1. Housing/electrical components: The housing is carried out in 3 pieces. All processes are controlled and monitored by the Printed circuit board (pos. 198). The PCB interacts via the signal cable (pos. 202) with the motor power electronics (pos.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 3.2. Welding unit The unit is lowering automatically when the welding process is started. Depending on the direction of motor rotation (freewheels) this is taking place as follows: 1. The cam ring (pos 109) is turning towards the switching cam (pos. 140, 143).
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 3.3. Rocker lever and reset The Blocking Pawl (pos. 65) prevents the tension gear from turning backwards during tensioning. After strapping has taken place, the rocker lever (pos.89) is pulled, the pawl and therewith the tension is released.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 3.5. Tensioning gear There is a free wheel integrated into the bevel gear pinion (Pos. 132). Provided the appropriate turning direction the free wheel delivers the torque to the 2 stage planetary gear and the tension wheel. To loose the tension the ring gear (Pos.19) is released by the pawl axle (Pos.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 5. Diagnostic aids Service technicians are supported in fault finding by the tools firmware. Faults in operating sequence or system errors are reported by acoustic signals or via the segment display by failure codes. Additionaly a service interface allows detailed diagnosis with the help of your computer.

BXT 2 BXT 2-19 5.3. Service Interface As optional accessory a data cable (Art. Nr: 1821.163.153). for detailed fault diagnosis is available. Using this data cable allows to readout the most important tool parameters on your computer and helps debugging. Hyperterminal is required as user interface. Hyper terminal is already installed on every XP- Computer.

BXT 2 BXT 2-19 Establish connection: 1. Plug the data cable to the serial interface(RS 232) of your computer. Plug socket Should your PC or Laptop not be equiped with a serial interface, you for data cable have to purchase a virtual serial interface and connect via USB. Please follow the instructions of the interface manufacturer.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 6. Tool reset In some rare cases, it may occur that it is not possible to bring the welding unit back to its initial position Also the rocker lever is blocked. Important! Never try to lift the rocker lever with force.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 7. Disassembling Please consider the explosion drawing which is printed on the last pages of the operating instructions. Purpose of this manual is only to draw the technician’s attention to the most relevant issues. 7.1. Housing/electrical components Important! The connectors and cables have to be treated carefully.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 7. Disconnect the Intermediate cable (Pos. 201). Remove the left part of the housing 8. Disconnect the motor hall sensor wirings 7.2. Welding unit 1. Remove cable tensioning (Pos. 103) 2. Remove set screw and compression spring (Pos.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 5. Remove washer (Pos.163). To do so, retain the excentric axe (Pos.155) with a 5mm wrench on its back side and loosen the screw (Pos. 164). 6. Pull out the toothed belt wheel (Pos. 127). Remove screw (Pos.102) and retaining rings (Pos.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 7.4. Tensioning gear 1. Remove retaining ring (Pos. 136). The bevel wheel complete is now free to be pulled out. 2. Remove the tension wheel, the planetary wheels and the cam disk (Pos. 44-46 & 18) from flange complete (Pos.32).
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 9. Adjustments 9.1. Adjustment of the welding reset To avoid play in the reseting parts of the welding unit these parts can be adjusted by the set screw (pos. 73). This screw is adjusted when the tool is assembled in the factory. Normally readjustments are not necessary.
BXT 2 BXT 2-19 Wiring The cables must be layed very accurate. Misplaced wiring could be damaged by moving parts inside the tool. Bad connections may lead to tool malfunction. 1. Prepare the power electronics for the assembly. Connect the hall sensor cables and the signal cable to the power electronics.
