Safety Guidelines:
• Read this manual and become familiar with the tool before installing any clamps.
• Protective eyewear should be worn when connecting and disconnecting the tool to compressed air sources and during operation.
• Wear appropriate gloves for handling steel while operating this tool, applying steel clamps and removing the scrap clamp tail.
• Tool should be firmly mounted before installing clamps.
• Clamp tensioning or clamp tail retrieval can be immediately stopped by releasing pressure from the foot pedal.
• When applying clamps, care should be taken to insure fingers and loose clothing are not in the way of the clamp being applied.
• Never attempt to clamp objects which have the potential to burst, shatter or otherwise cause bodily harm.
• Disconnect air supply prior to maintenance and disassembly of tool components.
Important advice and warning to user, Read before applying clamps:
The Center Punch type clamp’s lock and cut-off is achieved using considerable impact. This may cause damage to the object being clamped.
Remember that a tighter clamp keeps the fitting more secure, but excess tension could damage the hose or fitting. Fitting stem must have prominent barbs for proper retention inside the hose, but barbs must not be sharp to prevent cutting into the hose. Hose, fitting and clamps must be compatible with each other and the intended working environment. If in doubt, consult the hose or fitting manufacturer or call BAND-IT.
Clamping objects other than hose require similar precautions.
CAUTION: Improperly tightened clamps may result in dangerous hose assemblies, which could cause injuries or property damage.
CAUTION: Abuse or use of hose outside the manufacturer’s recommended conditions may cause it to quickly deteriorate and become a safety hazard. This could result in serious injury or property damage. Inspect and test hose assemblies frequently. Repair or replace at the slightest sign of damage or deterioration.

Tool Overview and Installation
Pneumatic
Center Punch
Tool
Tool Overview:
• The SM1700 has been designed to automatically tension, lock and cut-off scrap tails of CP style clamps. Type 201 Stainless Steel and Galvanized Carbon Steel, 5/8” wide CP style clamps can be easily installed on hose assemblies or objects chosen by the operator.
• The SM1700 will sense when the desired clamp tail tension is achieved and automatically switch to finalize the clamp. The completion of each clamp includes setting the lock while simultaneously cutting off the excess clamp tail without requiring an assembly roll-up action.
• Operating tip: Choose a clamp diameter close to the size of the diameter of the object being clamped. An oversized clamp may cause the End-of-Stroke safety switch to activate and prevent finalizing the clamp with a lock and cut-off (see page 6, #6 and page 7, #4).
• The SM1700 directs compressed air through a foot pedal control to cycle the tool and complete the installation of BAND-IT Center Punch Clamps. The foot pedal has a dual action, forward (toe) and reverse (heel). During normal operation, the operator should fully depress the foot pedal forward (toe), not removing this pedal pressure until the cycle has completed and clamp tail is ready to be removed from the tool.
• Upon completion of the tension, lock and cut-off cycle, the operator should depress the heel end of the pedal and remove the scrap clamp tail from the CP head.
• Operating tip: Operation can be stopped at any time by removing the operator’s foot completely from the foot pedal control.
Tool Installation:
1. Recommended work bench height is 34” – 40”. This height is suggested as the optimum range for operator comfort and safety during typical clamp applications. Locate the tool on a solid surface making sure of ample clearance on either side for handling hose assemblies of various lengths.
2. The air tool must be firmly secured as close to the front edge of the work bench as possible. This will reduce interference of hose assemblies during clamp application. Install tool using 5/16” diameter fastening hardware (not supplied with tool).
3. Use of the SM1700 without properly maintained filtration and lubrication will void the warranty. See page 4 for additional information on air supply requirements.

Air System Requirements
Pneumatic
Center Punch
Tool
Important: For proper tool performance, follow air requirements for SM1700:
Line Pressure – 70 psi minimum,120 psi maximum (4.9 – 8.4 kg/cm^2, 483 – 827 kPa).
Volume - 3-5 CFM
Air Delivery system - ¼” minimum diameter air line with a ¼” N.P.T. connection.
Filtration – Follow typical filtration requirements of air operated equipment. The BAND-IT
supplied system includes a filter and lubricator.
Lubrication - Use DTE 24 hydraulic oil (BAND-IT part # S31589), oil drip-rate is verified by
cycling the machine. If one drop falls in sight glass within 10-25 cycles, the lubricator is correctly adjusted. Excess oil will not benefit tool life and may lead to blockage of air mufflers and a dirty environment.
Solvents - Liquids such as solvents or cleaners should never be added to the air system
through air lines.

Warning: The lubricator should be refilled with DTE 24 hydraulic
oil only. The use of other oils may cause damage to the system.

Setting Controls
Center Punch
Tool
Pneumatic
Air pressure setting can be made using the regulators and gauges on face of the tool.
Rule: Always approach pull-up pressure setting from below and hold pressure setting from above the
recommended value.
End-of-Stroke Indicates the desired clamp tension and cut-off has not occurred. Also shown is speed control with red lock ring.
Dual function foot control valve. Pressing forward activates clamp installation. Heel action activates tail return and prepares for next clamp.
1. Set the speed control to blue for all BAND-IT 5/8” wide Center Punch Clamps.
2. Set pull-up pressure: pull knob and turn clockwise to reach pull-up pressure. Approach pressure setting from below by increasing pressure. Suggested settings are listed below. Adjust as necessary for the clamping application. Caution! Do not adjust below 20 psi or head misfires may occur.
35 PSI for 5/8” wide GCS clamps
40 PSI for 5/8” wide SS clamps
3. Set holding pressure to 8 – 12 PSI. With foot pedal at rest, increase pressure until it is above recommended setting. Slowly lower pressure by turning knob counterclockwise to recommended setting.
4. Check pressure setting by cycling tool until holding pressure gauge stops.
5. With foot pedal still depressed, verify all settings and adjust if necessary.
6. Reset tool by depressing heel end of foot pedal. Remove foot.
7. Repeat steps 2, 3, 4, and 5. At pressure kick down, verify all settings and adjust if necessary.
Caution: Always allow air to completely exhaust after resetting tool and before pull-up. Failure to
let air completely exhaust may result in clamps not pulling up tight.

Installing Clamps
Pneumatic
Center Punch
Tool
Installing BAND-IT Center Punch Clamps:
1) Choose correct material type and diameter clamp to best satisfy the needs of the application.
2) Installation of two BAND-IT Center Punch Clamps per hose end is suggested. Place clamps over hose, then install fitting. Note the location of the fitting’s hose barbs in order to locate clamps between barbs for maximum fitting retention. The buckles of each clamp should be located opposite of each other to increase resistance to leak paths.
3) Insert the clamp tail fully into the nose of the tool with the buckle on top. Position the clamp in the desired location on hose.
4) Small diameter hose assemblies (less than approximately 2”) will receive a considerable impact during the lock and clamp tail cut-off process. For stiff hoses, it will help to lessen the impact by holding these small hose assemblies with only one hand on the hose end of the assembly (do not hold the end of the assembly with the fitting). This will soften the jolt and allow the assembly to swing down to absorb the impact. For flat or thin-wall hose, inserting an object that is soft and safe to hold into the end of the fitting for additional support may help. Large diameter hose assemblies should be held securely with both hands.
Keep hands away from clamp being applied!
5) Depress the toe end of the foot pedal control to tension clamp, keep the toe end down until the clamp has been fully tensioned, locked and cut-off is complete.
6) If the cylinder reaches the end of its stroke during tension, the cutoff cylinder will be disabled and the end-of­stroke indicator will turn red. Pull firmly on the clamp while reversing the cylinder. Remove the clamp. Before regripping, cut off any tail greater than 4 inches. Start the tension cycle over at step 3.
7) Depress the heel end of the foot control and retrieve the clamp tail from the tool head.
