Tool
Settings
NOTE: When tightening the adapter clamping screw, safety clutch (M21790) must be engaged
with tension screw inside of BAND-IT tool.
Important: Changing speed setting will alter tension output. Speed setting must remain at 1 when
applying tension to the clamp tail. Drill switch must be depressed fully by the operator to attain
correct tension when installing clamps. Tension output may be somewhat different from tool to
tool on the same setting, depending on condition and wear of internal components.
Caution: Improperly tightened clamps may result in dangerous assemblies, which could cause
injuries or property damage.
Using correctly sized clamps (diameter) will, in most cases, eliminate the need to pull on clamp
tail more than once. Tension block moves approximately 5”. On occasion, if needed, large size
clamps can be installed by taking several bites (clamp tail feeds out through back of tool).
Position of tension block, containing gripper, can be monitored through viewing holes just under
cut-off handle. Tool features built-in, disengaging mechanism to prevent tension screw from
jamming up. Excessive use of this feature will wear clutch mechanism and/or tension screw out
prematurely.
CAUTION !
The UL4000 tool is designed to work mounted to the DeWalt DC987/DW987/DC925 cordless drill. Use of any other
drills in place of the DeWalt may result in unsatisfactory performance, hazards to the operator and/or the tool, or
unsafe clamps. Use of alternate drills must be approved in writing by the Director of Engineering at BAND-IT-IDEX,
Inc. Disregard of this caution voids the warranty of the tool and releases BAND-IT of any and all liabilities arising
from such misuses.
Use of Alternate Drills
NOTE: These torque settings are suggested settings only, individual tools should be
adjusted for the clamping application.
The tool accompanying this manual was function tested at a clutch setting of __________
and produced a pull-up force of _____________ lbf.
Serial #__________________Tested by:________________ Test date:_______________
*IMPORTANT: Larger sizes of preformed clamps (5" and up) may require a lower setting
to avoid over-stressing the lock and creating potentially unsafe assemblies. Inspect lock per
instructions on page 9-11.
