OPERATION
5.0
Before first use lubricate the tool with synthetic pneumatic oil , applied into the connector at the base of the handle

WARNING! The Boot tool is designed for the installation of flexible rubber CV boots only and should be used with no other products
and
for no other purpose.
F
WARNING! The Boot tool should only be used with flexible rubber boots which conform to the following specification.
Elongation at break: Minimum 600 %
Boots which do not conform to this specification may tear.
5.1
Adjust the air compressor to give a maximum pressure of 9 bar (125 psi) at its outlet.
5.2
Make sure that the air pressure regulator on the Boot tool handle is in the OFF position. Rotate the grooved ring at the base of the
handle until the OFF mark is opposite the static indicator (see figure A).
5.3
Connect the air line to the air connector at the end of the handle.
5.4
Put the flexible rubber boot over the Boot tool arms. Make sure that the ends of the arms are projecting from the top opening of the
rubber boot (see figure B).
When operating the Boot tool, to open the tool "arms", orientate the unit downwards, at an angle of 45 degrees.
5.5
Slowly turn the regulator towards the ON mark (see figure C). The regulator controls the rate and angle of the opening of the arms.
5.6
When the arms have stretched the boot by the desired amount, turn the regulator back to the OFF position in order to avoid the arms
opening any further. (see figure D)
5.7
Manoeuvre the opened tool and boot over the end of the drive shaft until it is in the required place. (see figure E)
5.8
Check that the regulator is still in the OFF position then press the yellow button located in the grooved regulator control to release the
air pressure within the tool. (see figure F)
5.9
As the air pressure is released the arms will close down onto the drive shaft. (see figure G) Disconnect the air supply.
5.10 Place one hand onto the rubber boot to hold it in place. (see figure H)
5.11 Finally, entirely withdraw the tool from the boot. (see figure I) Do not leave the Boot Tool under air pressure when not in use.
5.12 A purpose designed safety holder is supplied for storing the Boot tool when not in use.

MAINTENANCE
6.1
Before first use and regularly thereafter, lubricate the tool with synthetic pneumatic oil , in the connector at the base . (the air pressure
will distribute this eventually inside the tool).
6.2
Damage caused due to incorrect assembly, maintenance or not regularly lubricating the device, will void the warranty.
