NOTE: Any performance data published herein is based on laboratory tests, which cannot duplicate conditions that may
be encountered in field installations. Such conditions may vary results substantially from those shown (such as abuse in
handling and installation, failure to follow recommended handling and installation practices, abnormal environmental
conditions, disregard of operating instructions for BAND-IT tools or non-recommended combinations of BAND-IT
products). BAND-IT cannot be responsible for performance characteristics from such variables.
Safety Guidelines
When applying clamps, care should be taken to make certain that fingers are not in the way of the clamp being
applied. Tensioning the clamp can be stopped immediately by releasing the trigger. Detailed instructions are in
this manual and the operator is advised to read it and become familiar with operating the tool.
IMPORTANT: When clamping a hose end, remember that a tighter clamp keeps the fitting more secure, but
excess tension could damage the hose. Fitting stem must have prominent barbs for proper retention inside the
hose, but must not be sharp to prevent cutting into the hose. Hose, fitting and clamp must be compatible with
each other and the environment used in. If in doubt, consult the hose or fitting manufacturer or call BAND-IT.
Clamping objects other than hose requires similar precautions.
CAUTION: Improperly tightened clamps may result in dangerous hose assemblies, which could cause injuries or
property damage.
CAUTION: Abuse or use of a hose outside the manufacturers 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.

Always wear safety glasses when operating this tool and keep both hands and clothing away from clamp being
tensioned. Squeezing force of 3/4" clamp can reach as high as 2 tons. Never attempt to clamp objects which
can shatter, or otherwise cause bodily harm.
1. Read safety instructions and operator’s manual for the Bosch 37618-01 or Bosch GSR 18 VE-2LI cordless Drill.
Check to make sure drill is properly set up for use with Band-It Ultra-Lok tool as follows:
---- Drill spindle has a Clutch (Band-It # M21790) installed in place of the Drill Chuck.
---- See page 5 for recommended Drill speed and torque settings.
2. Charge Drill Battery according to the operator’s manual.
3. To mount the Drill onto the Band-It Ultra-Lok Tool: First, using the two #10-32 x 3/8" screws, tighten the Tool Body
Adapter on the Tension Tool with 20–30 in-lbs. Place the Adapter Clamp over the Tool Body Adapter. Orient the Drill
Clutch Pin horizontally (see p. 4). Carefully place the Tool Body Adapter over the Drill Torque Dial. If there is any
additional resistance, gently rotate the Tension Tool until the Tension Screw engages with the Drill Clutch (see p. 4),
and rotate Tension Tool to the desired orientation. Position Tool Body Adapter to butt-up against the shoulder of the
handle mounting surface. Slide the Adapter Clamp against this shoulder and fasten to 40–60 in-lbs.
4. This tool was designed for, and can only be used with BAND-IT 1/2" and 3/4" wide Ultra-Lok clamps. Do not attempt
to use on any other type of clamp style. Only use 1/2" wide clamps when the optional 1/2" Shear Plate (BAND# M09387) has been installed in the head in place of the 3/4" Shear Plate.
Use only with BAND-IT 3/4" and 1/2" Ultra-Lok Free-End and Preformed Clamps

(If a higher pull-up force is desired, set speed selector to “2”. Band-It
recommends hearing protection if this setting is used for an extended time.)
NOTE: These torque settings are suggested settings only; individual tools should be
adjusted for the clamping application. Inspect lock per instructions on page 9-11.
Important: Changing speed settings will alter tension output. Drill Switch should be depressed fully by
the operator to attain correct, and consistent, tension when installing clamps. Tension output may vary
from tool to tool, at 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. The tool features a
built-in disengaging mechanism to prevent tension screw from jamming up. Excessive use of this
feature will wear the Drill Clutch mechanism and/or Tension Screw out prematurely.

CAUTION!
This tool is designed to work mounted to the Bosch 37618-01 or Bosch GSR 18 VE-2LI cordless drill. Use
of any other drills in place of this Bosch drill may result in unsatisfactory performance, hazards to the
operator and/or the tool, or unsafe clamps. Disregard of this caution voids the warranty of the tool and
releases BAND-IT of any and all liabilities arising from such misuses.
