Operating
Manual
The BAND-IT Pneumatic IT Tool must be used correctly in order to reliably install a clamp.
Part of ensuring that the tool is producing a strong lock is making sure that it approaches the
application correctly and the fixture configuration allows repeatability of application.
• The tool should approach the assembly in the same orientation that it will finish a clamp
installation. Typically around 20° relative to the surface of the work piece.
• The tool head should come close to the buckle and work piece after inserting the clamp
tail.
• Tie-Lok
• JR
®
clamps, stage the tool slightly above the clamp.
• The buckle should be located in the final target area on the assembly.
• Once the tool begins tensioning, allow the band to pull the tool down to the surface.
• As the band is tensioning, the tool may rotate clockwise above the buckle as in direction 1
(Green Arrow).
• During cut-off, the tool must be allowed to rotate counter-clockwise up to 35 degrees in
direction 2 (Blue Arrow).
Typically
20° - 25 °
