OPERATION
TIE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Lace the tie snug around the assembly and locate the buckle in the target location.
The tie should be at least 3 inches longer than the assembly circumference.
2. Band should be applied to a uniform solid surface allowing the buckle adequate
support during the tie installation operation. (pg. 22)
3. Insert the tail of the clamp into the tool at a 30° angle from the buckle. The tail
needs to be inserted a minimum of 2.5" into the tool.
4. To reduce the risk of jamming, do not activate the tool until the tie is inserted 2".
5. Ensure proper tool orientation (see below).
6. Begin tensioning by pushing and holding down the trigger or by using the remote
trigger system. If the trigger is released, the tool will stop tensioning and open the
gripper.
7. The tool will continue to run until it reaches the desired tension. At this point the tool will
hold tension but not fire the punch until the tool is moved tangent to the work surface.
8. Once the tangency and buckle sensors have been activated the tool will complete
the punch and cut cycle.
9. Data will be logged onto the controller (and can be downloaded to an external
device). The clamp count is updated.
10. After the cycle is complete, remove the scrap tail. The tool is now ready for the
next tie.
11. Cut off scrap tail can be recycled according to local regulations.
TOOL OPERATION
The starting tool orientation should be
rotated back to allow for the front
corner of the buckle to hit first. Go
straight into the buckle with the tool in
this orientation.

Continue to install the band
until it reaches full tension in
the orientation shown. Once
the LED is solid yellow, rotate
the tool to be tangent to the
work piece and buckle.
