1. Break off an Ultra-Lok

Free-End
tie from the roll. Slide the buckle
onto band with indented arrows
pointing in same direction and
same side up. Slide buckle all
the way onto band until it comes
to a stop between the two buckle
dimples at opposite end of tie.
2. Wrap tie around object to be clamped.
Insert the tie through buckle once for
single-wrap or twice for double-wrap.
Double-wrapped clamps have more
than 3 times the loop-tensile strength.
3. If desired, you may pre-
form a clamp in the same
fashion as step 2, or use a
preformed clamp in place
of a Free-End
4. Position the tie on the
object you are clamping.
Pull the wrapped tie
hand-tight. Slightly bend
the tail up to keep the
clamp in place
5. Actuate drill until tension block is all the
way forward against the tool body. Set
drill to clock-wise rotation. With cut-off
handle down as shown, insert clamp tail
into tool head slot. Actuate drill until drill’s
built-in clutch disengages. If tension
block comes near its end of travel,
release actuator switch and reverse drill
to pull more on clamp tail. Excessive use
of disengaging clutch indicated by a loud
ratcheting sound leads to premature
wear of tension screw.
6. Do not force tool against clamp; it may
result in a folded clamp tail.
7. Pull the cut-off handle forward to cut
tail off and form a lock, then return
handle to the down position. Reverse
drill and feed clamp tail out of tool.
8. Tap down buckle shroud to complete
clamp. Tool is ready for next clamp.
