HARWIN

This Insertion Tool has been designed for use with the following track pins:

 T1559-46
 T1563-46

TO LOAD TOOL

1. Ensure that the first track pin on the strip is straight and in line. If not, gently bend into

alignment.

2. Insert the strip of pins into the plastic feed tube until resistance is felt. The tapered end of

the pin should be inserted first

3. Depress thumb knob several times to index pins fully, until one protrudes below the

insertion head. If pins will not index, rotate pins in plastic tube until flexing occurs.
