Operating
Instructions
1. Band may be used from bulk roll as this
completely eliminates waste of band. Slide
buckle on band as shown, bringing end of
band around object to be clamped and
again through buckle.
2. Continue band around object once
more and again through buckle.
Double banding develops a great deal
more radial compression than single
banding. Bend end of band under
buckle.
3. Place band in open of tool nose and
gripper block. Move into slot as far as
possible, to avoid buckle sliding into tool
nose. Apply tension by turning handle of
tool.
4. Place finger on BAND-IT Band at buckle
bridge while tensioning with tool handle.
When you feel BAND-IT Band stop moving
through buckle as you are turning handle,
maximum pressure is being exerted by the
BAND-IT Band around object being
clamped. Stop turning handle.
5. Roll tool over buckle, backing off with
tension handle1- 1½ turns throughout entire
rolling operation. Failure to back off tension
with tension handle throughout entire course
of roll-over may result in breaking of band.
There is no loss of tension as band released
is used up in the bend.
6. Pull cutting handle to cut the band.
When applying Giant Band clamps, prior
to cutting off clamp, release band gripper
and push tool nose away from buckle
approx. ¼”.
7. Remove tool,
holding stub of band
down with thumb.
8. Hammer
down buckle
ears to complete
BAND-IT clamp.
