Installation procedure for AR61, AR65, AR6116, AR6516 rail web electrical connections
– Drill rail web or, if already drilled, use a suitable reamer to clean the hole (Fig. 1).
– Check the size of the hole with the CAL 22.23 “GO/NO GO” gauge (Fig. 2a):
- The hole size is correct if only the green part enters the hole.
- If the red part enters, the hole is too large, in this case
it is necessary to drill a new hole.
Using the same gauge, check the rail thickness (Fig. 2b):
- If the yellow band protrudes, use the AR65... series.
- If the yellow band does not protrude, use the AR61.... series.
– Insert the AR...-1 copper bush into the rail web hole (Fig. 3).
–
Ensure that the ram in the head is fully retracted and then fi rmly screw and tighten
plunger onto the tool head (Fig. 4).
– Introduce the stem of the plunger into the AR...-1 copper bush from the unfl anged side
tighten the insert of the plunger OG... onto the stem
Plungers OG13.2T and OG16.2T are composed
separate items: insert and stem.
To rapidly execute subsequent extrusion opera
is suffi cient to unscrew the insert, leaving
screwed onto the head.
–
Operate the moveable handle of the tool (Fig. 6) to pull the plunger
bush and extrude the bush onto the surface of the hole.
At the end of the operation, press the pressure release lever (20) to retract the ram (01).
– The bush will also extrude itself around the opposite side of the rail web (Fig. 7).

3. WARNING
The tool is robust and requires very little daily maintenance.
Compliance with the following points should help to maintain the optimum performance of the tool:
3.1) Thorough cleaning
Dust, sand and dirt are a danger for any hydraulic device.
Every day, after use, the tool must be wiped with a clean cloth taking care to remove any residual
particles, especially around the moveable parts and the fl exible hose.
3.2) Flexible hose
Operate the tool with the hose uncoiled. Do not bend, twist, kink, knot or squash the hose. Before
operation, check the hose for any sign of damage.
When storing the tool, coil the hose in large loops.
High pressure fl exible hoses are subject to a natural ageing process which can result in a reduction
in performance potentially aff ecting safety of the operator. As a result their life span is limited.
In order to ensure safe use of their units, Cembre recommends replacing the hose within 10 years
from the date printed on the fi ttings.
Before using the pump always check the integrity of the fl exible hose and the quick couplers
making sure there are no abrasions, cuts, deformations or swellings.
3.3)Storage
When not in use, the tool and accessoires should be stored
and transported in the plastic case, to prevent damage.
Plastic case: type “VAL-P14”, size 496x370x137 mm, weight
2,7 kg.
The case will also store the "GO / NO GO" gauge, and the two
plungers.
4. MAINTENANCE
Air in the hydraulic circuit may aff ect the performance of the tool; e.g. no ram die advancement, slow
advancement of the ram; ram pulsating.
In this case proceed as follows:
4.1) To purge air bubbles from hydraulic circuit
a – Hold tool upright in a vice with handles open (see Figure).
b – Unscrew the main handle (25) from the body (19) to expose the rubber oil reservoir (18).
8
c – Remove reservoir cap (03).
d – Operate moveable handle (26) several times, in order to advance the ram (01).
e – Press the pressure release lever (20) to retract the ram, discharge oil pressure from the circuit
and return all oil to the reservoir.
f – Repeat points (d - e) fi ve times, to ensure all air bubbles in the hydraulic circuit are purged into
the reservoir.
g – If the oil level is low, top up as directed in paragraph 4.2.
h – Remove all air from reservoir and fi t cap (03).
i – Assemble main handle (25) to tool body.
If the tool continues to malfunction, return the tool for service/repair as detailed in § 7.

4.2) Oil top up
Every six months check the oil level in the reservoir. If necessary, to up the oil level to the upper lip of
the reservoir and remove all air from the reservoir, see 4.1, points a, b, c, and e, fi nally, complete with
operations h and i.
Always use clean recommended oil, see § 1.
Do not use old or recycled oil.
Do not use hydraulic brake fl uid.
Ensure that disposal of used oil is in accordance with current legislation.

4.2) Replacement of the automatic coupler
To replace the automatic coupler of the hose or head, proceed as follows:
– Remove the old coupler.
– Carefully clean the thread to remove old sealant.
– Apply Tefl on tape to the thread.
– Fit the new automatic coupler and tighten to 30 Nm (22 lbf ft).
