Safety
1Do not use outside the design intent.
2Do not use equipment with this tool/machine other than that recommended by Avdel UK Limited.
3Any modification undertaken by the customer to the tool/machine shall be the customer’s entire responsibility.
4Always disconnect the tool from the hydrapac before attempting to adjust, remove or fit the nose assembly.
5Do not operate a tool/machine that is directed towards any person(s).
6Always adopt a firm footing or a stable position before operating the tool/machine.
7It is recommended that ear and eye protection be worn by the operator and those in the vicinity.
8Do not fit flexible hoses rated at less than 10 000 psi (69 mPa) working pressure.
9The operating pressure shall not exceed 8000 psi (55.2 mPa).
10 Care shall be taken to ensure that spent pintails are not allowed to create a hazard.
11 The flexible pintail deflector T108 must always be attached to the tool and in good condition.
12 Take care to avoid entanglement of loose clothes, ties, long hair, cleaning rags etc. in the moving parts of the tool.
13 The tool should be kept clean and dry for the best possible grip.
14 When carrying the tool from place to place keep hands away from the trigger to avoid inadvertent start up.
This instruction manual must be read with particular attention to the following safety rules, by any person
installing, operating, or servicing this tool.
CAUTIONS
AVDEL RECOMMENDS THAT ONLY HYDRAPAC UNITS BE USED TO DRIVE INSTALLATION TOOLS, AS OTHER MAKES OF
HYDRAULIC POWER UNITS MAY NOT OPERATE AT THE SAFE DESIGNED WORKING PRESSURES.
ENSURE THAT THERE IS ADEQUATE CLEARANCE FOR THE TOOL OPERATOR'S HANDS BEFORE PROCEEDING.
DO NOT ABUSE THE TOOL BY DROPPING OR USING IT AS A HAMMER.
KEEP DIRT AND FOREIGN MATTER OUT OF THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS OF THE TOOLS AS THIS WILL CAUSE THE TOOL
AND HYDRAPAC TO MALFUNCTION

The T10 Installation Tool is basically a Piston and Cylinder Assembly. When coupled Hydraulically and Electrically to a compatible Hydraulic
Power Source and the relevant Nose Assembly is attached, it is then used to install 5 to 10 mm Lockbolts in Industrial Environments.

Operating Instructions
Maintenance
When both hoses and control cord are connected to the Hydrapac, the pull and return cycles of the tool are controlled by depressing and
releasing the trigger switch located in the handle respectively.
When the switch is depressed the solenoid valve located in the Hydrapac is energised and directs the pressurised oil flow to the pull side
of the piston in the tool. This also allows the oil in the return side of the tool to return to the tank. The piston/collet assembly now moves
towards the rear of the tool allowing the 'O' Ring type cushion to push the follower and jaws forward. If a Hydraloc pin has been inserted in
the nose for assembly, the jaw set will clamp onto the pintail and assembly will commence.
The cycle of installation will first clamp the joint to be fastened and then as the anvil continues to move forward the collar will be swaged
into the locking grooves of the pin. At the end of the swaging cycle the anvil will come hard up against the joint and as movement
continues the pintail will be broken off.
The trigger switch must be released immediately after pin break occurs. Releasing the trigger switch will cause the solenoid to de-
energise and reverse the flow of pressurised oil.
Pressurised oil will now flow into the return side of the installation tool with the oil in the pull side returning to the tank.
The forward movement of the piston/collet assembly will eject the installed fastener from the anvil and as the forward movement
continues, the jaw release mechanism will partly open the jaws to allow the next fastener to be inserted into the nose.
When the piston returns to the fully forward position the pressure build up in the system will cause the Hydrapac to go into idle mode. This
keeps the installation tool in the forward position.
Please note that with all electric Hydrapacs there is a built in "Sleep Mode" which in effect means that the electric motor will automatically
switch off if the trigger switch is not operated for approximately 10 seconds. The Hydrapac will automatically start up on depression of
the tool trigger switch. (The diesel Hydrapac does not have a "Sleep Mode".)
•Attach the proper nose assembly to tool per instructions on the nose assembly data sheet.
•Ensure the Hydrapac is not running.
•Connect hoses and the control cord to the Hydrapac.
•Start the Hydrapac. Depress and release the trigger switch a few times to almost the full stroke of the tool to circulate hydraulic fluid.
Observe action of tool. Check for fluid leaks and ensure that in the idler mode the piston is in the fully forward position.
To install a Hydraloc Fastener
•Check work and remove excessive gap. (Gap is the space between components of the Joint. Gap is excessive if not enough pintail
sticks through the collar for the nose assembly jaws to grab onto.)
•Put Hydraloc pin into hole.
•Slide Hydraloc collar over pin. (The bevelled end of the collar must be towards the nose assembly and tool.)
•Push nose assembly onto pin until the nose assembly anvil stops against the collar. Tool and nose assembly must be held at right
angles (90°) to the work.
•Depress tool trigger switch to start installation cycle.
•When the forward motion of the nose assembly anvil stops and the pintail breaks off, release the switch. The tool will go into its return
stroke and push off the installed fastener. At the end of the return stroke the jaws will partially release the expended pintail which can
then be pushed through the jaws with the next installation and then ejected through the rear of the tool.
•Once the installed fastener been ejected, the tool and nose assembly is ready for the next installation.
CAUTION
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BREAK OFF A PINTAIL WITHOUT THE INSTALLATION OF A COLLAR AS THIS WILL CAUSE THE
UNSECURED PORTION OF THE HYDRALOC PIN TO EJECT FROM THE NOSE AT A HIGH SPEED AND FORCE.
IMPORTANT
Read the safety rules on page 4 carefully

Ensure the installation tool piston rod is in the fully forward position.
Assemble the sleeve, 'O' rings, follower and jaws by "stacking" vertically in that order.
Place the collet over the stack, slide to the end of the bench or table and with a finger, push the stack to the front of the collet.
With the tool in the vertical position, screw the collet onto the piston rod until it is flush with the end of the collet adaptor. Rotate the
collet in either direction until the collet lock situated in the side of the collet slots into the nearest groove on the collet adaptor. The
lock should be flush with the exterior of the collet.
Slide the anvil over the collet and screw into the anvil adaptor until it is firm. Note, there is a locking 'O' Ring which will create a
resistance to the final few turns of the anvil. It is imperative that the anvil be hand tightened up against the rear locking face.

Dismantling Instructions
As s em b li n g th e To ol
Maintenance
•Uncouple the two Hydraulic Hoses and disconnect the Control Cord .
•Unscrew and remove the Anvil by hand.
•Unscrew the Collet and remove the inner assembly by hand.
•Loosen the Grub Screw 14 using a 2 mm Allen Key.
•Unscrew the Anvil Retainer 4.
•Place a tray under tool to catch the oil.
•If a hand pump is available, connect to female coupling and slowly pump Piston 10 out of Cylinder 15.
•Otherwise clamp the Piston 10 in a soft jawed vice and tap the Cylinder 15 backwards with a soft mallet.
•Remove the Brass Plug 1by inserting a sharp object(eg. a small screwdriver) into the keyway and levering out the plug.
•Unscrew the Collet Adaptor 2.
•Remove the Gland 7.
•Inspect and replace 'O' Rings and Back-up Rings as per the Service Kit 27 if necessary.
IMPORTANT
Be sure the Hydrapac is turned off before removing tool or nose.
Examine and replace all worn parts. Fit new 'O' Rings and Back-up Rings (Service Kit 27).
•Apply hydraulic oil to all 'O' rings, back-up rings and contact surfaces before fitting.
•Fit new 'O' Rings 6, 9and Back-up Rings 5, 8to the Gland 7.
•Fit 'O' Ring 12 and Back-up Ring 11 to Piston 10.
•Fit 'O' Ring 16 and Back-up Ring 17 into the rear of the Cylinder 15.
•Install the Piston 10 into the Cylinder 15.
•Install the Gland 7.
•Install the Anvil Retainer 4.
•Re-clamp the Grub Screw 14 using a 2 mm Allen Key.
•Refit the Collet Adaptor 2
•Align the hole with the Keyway.
•Insert the Brass Plug 1.
•Bleed the Tool.
To Bleed the Tool:
•Couple the short Tool Hoses directly onto a HydraPAc or compatible Hydraulic Power Source. Note Do not use long extension
Hoses as these will prevent the air from escaping into the HydraPAc.
•Plug in a HydraPac Test Trigger.
•Position the Tool so that the Piston Rod side faces vertically up.
•Cycle a few times.
•Reverse the vertical position and cycle again.
