Warranty:
Refer to website for warranty information: www.band-it-idex.com/warranty.html
NOTE: Any performance data published herein is based on laboratory tests, which cannot duplicate conditions that may
be encountered in field installations. Such conditions may vary results substantially from those shown (such as abuse in
handling and installation, failure to follow recommended handling and installation practices, abnormal environmental
conditions, disregard of operating instructions for BAND-IT tools or non-recommended combinations of BAND-IT
products). BAND-IT cannot be responsible for performance characteristics from such variables.
Safety Guidelines
When applying clamps, care should be taken to make certain that fingers are not in the way of the clamp being
applied. Tensioning the clamp can be stopped immediately by releasing the trigger. Detailed instructions are in
this manual and the operator is advised to read it and become familiar with operating the tool.
IMPORTANT: When clamping a hose end, remember that a tighter clamp keeps the fitting more secure, but
excess tension could damage the hose. Fitting stem must have prominent barbs for proper retention inside the
hose, but must not be sharp to prevent cutting into the hose. Hose, fitting and clamp must be compatible with
each other and the environment used in. If in doubt, consult the hose or fitting manufacturer or call BAND-IT.
Clamping objects other than hose requires similar precautions.
CAUTION: Improperly tightened clamps may result in dangerous hose assemblies, which could cause injuries or
property damage.
CAUTION: Abuse or use of a hose outside the manufacturers recommended conditions may cause it to quickly
deteriorate and become a safety hazard. This could result in serious injury or property damage. Inspect and test
hose assemblies frequently.

Recommended Drill Settings:
(Speed-Torque)
½” ¾”
Single Wrap C-2 D-

Double Wrap D-2 E-4
*Preformed D-2 E-4
Important:
Changing the speed setting will alter tension output. Drill switch must be depressed fully by the operator
to attain correct tension when installing clamps. Tension output may be somewhat different depending on condition
and wear of internal components from tool to tool on same setting.
Pre-set tension is achieved when drill stops and on some models, may pulsate. Excessive pulsation (more than
twice) will result in more tension applied to the clamp.
Use of Alternate Drills
NOTE: These torque settings are suggested settings only, individual tools should be adjusted for the clamping
application.
*IMPORTANT: Larger sizes of preformed clamps (5" and up) may require a lower setting to avoid over-
stressing the lock and creating potentially unsafe assemblies. Inspect lock per instructions on pages 9-11.

CAUTION!
The UL9010 tool is designed to work mounted securely to the Metabo drill Model SBE 900 IMPULS. Use of any
other drill may result in unsatisfactory performance, hazards to the operator and/or the tool, or unsafe clamps. Use
of alternate drills must be approved in writing by the Director of Engineering at BAND-IT-IDEX, Inc. Disregard of this
caution voids the warranty of the tool and releases BAND-IT of any and all liabilities arising from such misuses.

Troubleshooting
1. Lock slips down in buckle: Verify tightness of blade mounting screws. If lock on clamp is still not adequate,
reduce tension on tool by setting torque control knob to a lower number or reduce speed of the drill. (See “Setting up
proper tension”)
2. Drill makes loud, rapid clicking noise: Make sure hammer drill setting is off and indicator is pointing to drill
symbol. (Hammer symbol on selector knob pointing to back).
3. Drill makes whining noise when clamp gets tight: The drill is equipped with its own internal safety clutch. If this
clutch disengages usually above torque setting 6, reduce torque setting and lubricate tension screw. Do not confuse
this clutch with the coupling between drill and tool.
4. Safety clutch between drill and tool releases prematurely: Make sure tool is fully seated on drill and safety
clutch is fully engaged with tip of tension screw. (Loosen clamping screw and re-tighten while pressing tool into drill).
See page 4, if problem still remains, replace tension screw (BAND-IT # M00987).
Note: To prevent safety clutch wear, do not over-use. When tensioning clamp, let drill switch go as tension block
nears its end of travel. Reverse drill and send tension block all the way forward for a second pull on the band.
5. If tool does not cut off on initial setting:
Step 1: Pull trigger of tool after engaging cutter blade.
Step 2: Increase torque setting slightly, and repeat tensioning band and engaging of cutter blade.
Step 3: Repeat steps 1 and 2 until band cuts.

Incorrect position of
tool while tensioning
Warning: Always wear safety glasses when operating tool.
1. Break off an Ultra-Lok
Free-End tie from the roll.
Slide the buckle onto band
with indented arrows
pointing in same direction
and same side up. Slide
buckle all the way onto
band until it comes to a
stop between the two
buckle dimples at opposite
end of tie.
2. Wrap tie around object to be clamped.
Insert the tie through buckle once for
single-wrap or twice for double-wrap.
Double-
wrapped clamps have more
than 3 times the loop-tensile strength.
3. If desired, you may pre-form a
clamp in the same fashion as
step 2, or use a preformed
clamp in place of a Free-End.
4. Position the clamp on the
object you are clamping.
Pull the wrapped clamp
hand-tight. Slightly bend
the tail up to keep the
clamp in place.
5. Actuate drill until tension block is all the
way forward against the tool body. Set
drill to clock-wise rotation. With cut-off
handle down as shown, insert clamp tail
into tool head slot. Actuate drill until drill’s
built-in clutch disengages. If tension block
comes near its end of travel, release
actuator switch and reverse drill to pull
more on clamp tail. Excessive use of
disengaging clutch indicated by a loud
ratcheting sound leads to premature wear
of tension screw.
6. Pull the cut-off handle forward
to cut tail off and form a lock,
then return handle to the down
position. Reverse drill and feed
clamp tail out of tool. Do not
force tool against clamp; it may
result in a folded clamp tail.
Break away clamp tail (if
necessary) by bending it up
and down. Tap down buckle
shroud to complete clamp. Tool
is ready for next clamp.

Preformed Clamps
Place clamp in desired position on object to be clamped.
Follow steps 5 and 6 on page 9.
Inspect lock in buckle on completed clamp, and then tap down buckle shroud as shown below.
When applying clamps on soft, thick-walled hose, tension clamp then wait a full 30
seconds. Clamps may be retensioned by squeezing the actuator switch on the power
unit a second time prior to forming the lock and cutting the excess clamp tail. This
allows hose to “settle” under the band of the clamp. This hose material attribute is
called Cold Flow. Finally, complete clamp by tapping down the buckle shroud as
described above.
Important:
Visually inspect lock formed in band as shown. If lock has slipped under the sheared surface of the
buckle, remove clamp and install a new clamp at reduced tension by lowering the drill clutch torque setting.

Maintenance
1. Lubricate tension screw with molybdenum disulfide lubricant or
equivalent approximately every 500 clamps.
Make sure the tension block is all the way forward against the tool
head. Insert tip of the Lubricating syringe into slot on top of tool
body. Press the tip against the tension screw just behind the tension
block and squeeze out approximately ½” long bead of lubricant.
Remove syringe, and actuate tool without a clamp a couple of times
to spread lubricant evenly on tension screw.
To order more lubricant, specify BAND-IT #C23199
2. Every 500-1000 clamps, depending on tension setting, inspect and
repack front bearing with same lubricant. Turn load bearing tip and
small bearing tip over for a new bearing surface.
3. To gain access to bearing components: With the tension body
already separated from the power drill, remove blade mounting
screws (2 places) and slide blade free. Paper clip may be used to
push bearing components out of blade. Wipe lubricant from all
components and examine for wear. If ball or bearing tips appear
heavily worn, replace with new parts. Note: ¼” ball is made from
hard tungsten carbide material, do not replace with regular ball
bearing. (A smooth indention from ball in the bearing tips is normal)
4. To re-assemble bearing components: wipe blade cavity clean. Push
small bearing tip into blade cavity. Apply lubricant to ball and push
into blade cavity and fill remaining space with lubricant. Push load
bearing tip firmly into blade cavity, some lubricant will be squeezed
out. Re-attach blade to tool head, making sure that Load Bearing
Tip extends into tension screw. While turning blade mounting
screws into blade, push on blade rearwards. Tighten screws to
approximately 120 in-lbs.
5. When replacing worn blade follow instructions above to properly re-
assemble bearing components.

6. To replace gripper: Make sure tension block is all the way forward against the tool head. Remove drill.
Remove tool adapter body. Remove only one side of the tool body, not both. Slide gripper out sideways
and replace with a new one. Reattach tool body side. Caution: Do not push or move tension block while
gripper is out of tool.
7. To replace tension screw: Move tension block all the way back (away from tool head) using drill in
tensioning mode (clock-wise). Remove Ultra-Lok
tool from drill. Remove the tool adapter body from the
Ultra-Lok
tool. Remove blade and load bearing tip from tensioning screw (see bearing detail). Remove
only one side of the tool body, not both. Grasp the smooth barrel on tension screw and pull all the way
forward until tension block is against the tool head. If tension screw is stuck, use a punch and tap the
center of the screw from the back end of the tool. Turn tension screw out of tension block. Lubricate new
tension screw with Molybdenum Disulfide lubricant, or equivalent. Install new tension screw in reverse
order, making sure that back end of tension screw extends well beyond the back end of the tension block.
Push the assembly all the way back and extend the round portion of the tension screw through holes on the
tripper bracket and back guide plate. Reinstall tool body side. Reinstall blade and tighten the blade
mounting screws approximately 120 in-lbs. Reattach tool adapter body to Ultra-Lok
tool. Reattach tool to
drill and drive tension block all the way forward.
Note: Drills needing repair must be forwarded to an authorized ‘METABO’ repair center in your area. Be sure
to remove BAND-IT safety clutch (M03990) from drill.
METABO Drill is covered solely by the Metabo warranty as described in the Metabo literature. BAND-IT does
not extend any warranty of any kind to the drill.

Blade Change
To change out the UL9010 tool to the 1/2” version, the following steps should be followed.
*NOTE: Do not attempt to use 1/2” clamps with 3/4” head. (Adapter change-out: 3-5 minutes)
1. Prior to separation from power drill, back off tension block assembly ½” from head unit. See page 7.
2. Detach tension body from the drill by loosening the single tensioning bolt on the aluminum collar and separating the
two sections.
3. Remove the blade from head by removing two cap screws (M05787) from the top of the head. It is not necessary to
remove entire head from tool in order to remove blade. (Figure 1) Remove the ¾” adapter plate from the blade.
4. Align the ½” adapter plate (M09387) with the blade (M09787) so that the guide is facing up. Incorrect placement will
not allow bands to be inserted into the tool. (Figure 1)
Note: To convert tool back to ¾”, replace ½” insert with ¾” insert (M09887) and follow same instructions.
Be sure to retain unused shear plate for later use.
5. Attach the blade and ½” adapter plate onto head using the two previously removed cap screws. These cap screws
must be tight to assure proper cut-off of clamp tails.
6. Re-attach drill to tension body making sure the drill and tension body are properly aligned, and tighten the single
adapter cap screw located on the aluminum collar.
7. This tool is not designed to work with traditional band and buckle designs.
Must use only BAND-IT Ultra-Lok
clamps.
