Clamp Application
Preformed Clamps
Place clamp in desired position on object to be clamped.
Follow steps 5 and 6 on page 9.
Inspect buckle on completed clamp and tap down buckle shroud as shown below.
When applying clamps on soft, thick-walled hose, tension clamp then wait a full 30 seconds.
Clamps may be re-tensioned by squeezing the Drill Switch on the power unit a second time prior
to forming the lock and cutting the excess clamp tail. This allows hose to “settle” under the band
of the clamp. This hose material attribute is called Cold Flow. Finally, complete clamp by tapping
down the buckle shroud as described above.
Important: Visually inspect lock formed in band as shown. If lock has slipped under the sheared surface of the
buckle, remove clamp and install a new one at reduced tension by lowering the Drill Clutch torque setting.
