Warning: Always wear safety glasses when operating tool.
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 clamp on the
object you are clamping.
Pull the wrapped clamp
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. 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. Do not
force tool against clamp; it may
result in a folded clamp tail.
Break away clamp tail (if
necessary) by bending it up
and down. Tap down buckle
shroud to complete clamp. Tool
is ready for next clamp.
Push all the
way forward to
a solid stop.
