4. Support the weight of the tool in a stand, tensioner or balancer, because a lighter grip can then be used to support the tool. GB2620 / GB2620A INTALLATION TOOL REV. 4/23...
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION When the tool is connected to a powerunit, operation is controlled by an electric actuator (GB2620) or a piloted air actuator (GB2620A) in the handle. When the actuator is depressed, a directional valve in the powerunit directs oil to the front side of the piston forcing it and the nose assembly collet rearward.
1. Set hydraulic power unit to the recommended pressure, 7,400 psi (510.2bar) Max. for the pull and 3,200 psi (220.6 bar) Max. for the return. Gage Bilt pressure gage assembly (942280) (sold separately) is recommended to aid in this procedure. “See hydraulic power unit manual for correct procedure when adjusting pressures”.
Do not operate when recommended pressures are exceeded as it could cause severe personal injury and or damage the equipment. WARNING: Use only Gage Bilt hydraulic hoses and couplings, or equivalent, rated for 10,000 psi. (689.5 bar) working pressure. WARNING: Do not operate this tool without deflector, pintail catcher bag or pintail collection bottle in place.
WARNING: Tool must be maintained in a safe working condition at all times and examined on a daily basis for damage or wear. Any repair must be done by qualified personnel trained on Gage Bilt procedures. WARNING: Excessive contact with hydraulic oil and lubricants must be avoided.
7. NOSE ASSEMBLY WON'T ACCEPT FASTENER PINTAIL. a.) Spent fastener stem may be jammed in pulling head. Disassemble and check for worn or broken parts in nose assembly. Replace defective parts and clean before reassembling. GB2620 / GB2620A INTALLATION TOOL REV. 4/23...
