For your safety!
Under certain circumstances, tube fittings can be subjected to extreme
loadings such as vibration and uncontrolled pressure peaks. Only by using
genuine Parker Components and following Parker assembly instructions can
you be assured of the reliability and safety of the products and their conformity
to the applicable standards.
Failure to follow this rule can adversely affect the functional safety and
reliability of products, cause personal injury, property damage, and result in
loss of your guarantee rights.

1. For your safety
Correct Use
Only use the KarryFlare for 37° tube flaring for hydraulic fittings which are specified
by the manufacturer. Any other application may be dangerous. The manufacturer is
not liable for damage resulting from improper use or operation.
Technical Safety
Before setting up and transport of the machine, read the operation instructions
carefully. Check the KarryFlare for any externally visible damage. Do not use a
damaged machine.
The machine is built in accordance with current safety requirements. Unauthorised
repairs or modifications could result in unforeseen dangers for the user for which the
manufacturer cannot accept responsibility. Repairs should only be undertaken by
skilled engineers and in accordance with the maintenance instructions of the
manufacturer.
Faulty components must only be exchanged for Parker original spare parts. Only
when these parts are fitted the safety standards of the device can be guaranteed.
Accessory parts or driving units may only be fitted when expressly approved by
Parker. If other parts are used, guarantee, performance and product liability claims
may be invalidated.
During transportation safety shoes with toe protection have to be worn.
As hand protection during operation, the KarryFlare design keeps automatically both
hands of the user in action on the tube and the hand pump lever. Take care that
other people do not help in the area of the tools or hand pump during operation.
The pressure gauge shows a red range for the hydraulic pressure, starting at 400
bar. Make sure that this pressure is not exceeded during operation.
2. Specifications
The KarryFlare is a portable device for easy and workmanlike 37° tube flaring. It
allows the flaring of even large dimension steel and stainless steel hydraulic tube at
assembly sites where Parflange® technology is not available.
The KarryFlare consists of a hydraulic flaring unit and a hand pump. The hydraulic
assembly pressure can be read on a gauge which is ergonomically located. The
KarryFlare is ideal for tube flaring of small quantities and on-site tube installation. It is
practical, simple to operate, reliable and easy to transport.
The KarryFlare comes as one unit with all components firmly attached to a practical
carrying frame.

4 Initial Operation
● Open cover by loosening front screw. For stationary operation the cover
can be removed completely.
● Take care that the machine cannot slip away at assembly. It might be
necessary to support the machine when flaring large diameter tubes
● Take care that only actual Parker flaring dies are used.
● Make sure that die sets and flaring pin are clean and free of wear or
damage.
● The tank cap on the hand pump can remain closed. It must be closed
for transportation.

● Unlock transportation clip from hand pump lever.
● Do some test flarings to familiarise with the operation and the tool
handling.
● Carefully check the flaring result according to the Triple-Lok® assembly
instructions.

6 Transport
● For transportation the oil refill screw has to be closed and the hand lever has
to be locked.
● The cover protects the device. Lock cover for transport.
● Use handle on side for carrying.
● For trolley transport, the telescopic tube handle on the machine front must be
completely pulled out.
.
7 Trouble Shooting
Problem Probable cause Suggested solution
The device slips when
tube is pressed against
the tube stop
Placed on a slippery
surface
Place the device on a non-slip surface. If
flaring large dimensions place the device in
front of a fixture so that it cannot slide
backwards.
Oil leaks out Oil refill screw not closed Always close the oil refill screw during
transportation.
No cylinder movement Valve on handpump not
closed
Tighten the hand wheel at the pump.
No cylinder movement Not enough oil in the
handpump
Check oil level and refill, if necessary.
The cylinder does not
withdraw
Valve on handpump is
closed
Open hand wheel at the pump completely.
Clap does not close Flaring block is bent Check mechanism and make sure that flaring
block is not bent.
Flaring dies get stuck in flaring
block
Friction between dies
and flaring block is to
Lubricate sliding surfaces between dies and
flaring block.

high
Scratches in Tube-ID and
flare area
Worn flaring pin Check flaring pin on wear and damages and replace if
necessary.
Surface faults in Tube-ID and
flare area
Flaring pin not clean Allways keep flaring pin clean and lubricated. Take
care, that tubes are deburred well and no chips can be
placed on the flaring pin.
8 Maintenance
The device is maintenance-free.
If oil has leaked out, check oil level at the tank cap and refill with oil of type H-LP 32 if
necessary.
Regularly check flaring tools for wear and damage. Always keep flaring pin clean.
Use lubrication on tube ends for maximum tool lifetime. Keep tube stop mechanism
clean and lubricated.
If flaring pin is damaged or worn, it must be replaced:
● Disassemble tube-stop mechanism
● Pull off old flaring pin
● Push in new flaring pin with O-ring
● Assemble tube-stop mechanism
9 Disposal of old appliance
Old appliances contain materials which can be recycled. Please contact your dealer,
your local waste collection centre or scrap merchant about potential recycling
schemes. Ensure that the appliance presents no danger to children while being
stored for disposal.
10 Interchangeable bite type presetting / flaring block
The bite-type presetting block of the EO Karrymat and the flaring block of the
KarryFlare can be easily interchanged according to following instruction:
● Open the valve at the hand pump to release pressure.
● Dismantle the two fixing screws underneath the bite-type presetting / flaring
block.
● Disconnect the hydraulic coupling of the cylinder. The quick couplings remain
leak- free.
● Re-connect the coupling of the new block. Air bleeding is not required
because all units are filled with hydraulic oil.
● Use same two fixing screws to attach the block to platform.
● Refer to KarryFlare / EO Karrymat manual for functional testing and
operation
● Refer to TFDE handbook 4100 for assembly instructions of EO PSR / DPR /
EO2 or Triple-Lok® fittings
The bite-type assembly block of the EO Karrymat and the flaring block of the
KarryFlare can also be used as individual tools without the basic frame. Following
guidelines apply for this:

●The Parker Karrykrimp power units can be connected to operate the hydraulic
cylinders. See Karrykrimp cataloges for selection and ordering.
● The maximum pressure of 400 bar must not be exceeded. The pressure
must be adjustable according to the chart on the cylinder. A pressure
gauge must be installed.
● If other accessory parts or driving units are used, warranty is limited to
genuine Parker components.
● Alterations on EO Karrymat / KarryFlare devices may result in incorrect
assemblies. Parker is not liable for product failures due to wrong assembly.
