BAND CLAMP TOOL

F100

Jack-type tool

For applying 3/8" and 5/8" width band clamps

Operating Instructions for the F100 Installation Tool

Hold tool as shown with ball handle all the way forward. Insert clamp and push the end entirely into the tool until the lock is held in pusher housing jaws.

Slip the hose with nipple inserted into the clamp and locate clamp directly over groove - (position of groove can be laid out on hose with chalk), tighten the clamp with downward strokes of ball handle, using short strokes after initial slack is out so that

ball handle nishes in down position.

Hold the tool with clamp resting on Vee block, vise or other solid surface. Swing punch head down against lock and strike hard with mallet; this locks the clamp. Raise punch head to free punch. Hold hose to keep from turning and raise both handles of tool up together which will break off band at lock. To remove cut off end from tool, operate ball handle to work it through holding dog. Then press release lever and pull strip out toward rear of tool.

Instructions for using adapter to apply 3/8" width clamps

The F100 tool described above, as shipped, is ready for use in applying all sizes of 5/8" standard and heavy duty hose clamps. To apply the 3/8" wide clamps use the adapter (F-229). To insert the adapter, hold the tool with the punch head (FX-201) raised as shown and place the adapter under the pusher nose with the bent ends up and push back until the shoulder rests against the front of the pusher nose. The F-229 clamp adapter under the pusher nose ( F-206) centers the narrower clamp in the tool.
