3. Air Supply to Alcohol Dispenser, use 5/32” tubing
4. Return from Alcohol Dispenser, use 5/32” tubing
2.2 Air Supply
Connect a 1/4” air supply hose to the fitting found on the back of the Automatic Fitting
Inserter. The air supply should be free of moisture and contaminates and supplies 100-
120 psi. It is important to have the ability to shut off the air pressure or disconnect
from the main air line. A quick-connect coupling or ball valve is recommended.
Figure 2.1.1
The air supply will need to be off or disconnected when manually cycling the pin set
actuation air cylinder.
Safety Note: Keep hands clear of moving parts when connecting or disconnecting the air supply.
The jaws may move suddenly. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
Ensure that the High Pressure Regulator is set between 80-120 psi. (shown in Figure
2.2) The unit must have a minimum of 80 psi to operate properly.
Ensure that the Low Pressure Regulator is set between 20-40 psi. The Low Pressure
Regulator must always be set between 20-40 psi for the machine to function properly.
Caution: Do not set above 40 psi, as high pressure can cause premature wear to
the machine and/or damage the unit.

2.3Pin Set Installation
NOTE: AIR SUPPLY MUST BE DISCONNECTED AND THE JAWS MUST BE IN
THE CLOSED POSTION.
Remove the magazine from the unit by pulling straight up. Loosen the six button head
screws on both sides of the cover. Lift the cover up and carefully place on left side of
base as wire and air lines are connected from the cover to the unit.
The CRD610 is equipped with a Pin Set Assembly which is designed for a specific tube
fitting.
Before installing the pin set, roll the pin on a flat surface to insure that it is straight.
Insert the pin tip into the hole near the bottom of the magazine rack. Slide the pin
through the hole until it is horizontal within the CRD610. Figure 2.4.6
Push the pin toward the back of the unit until the threaded end reaches the threaded
cylinder rod. Turn the pin clockwise to tighten.
Once the pin is hand-tightened, pull the pin forward exposing the cylinder. Figure 2.4.7
Place a 1/2” open end wrench on the flats of the cylinder rod and hold in place.
Place a 5/8” open end wrench onto the flats of the pin set and tighten pin set into the
cylinder rod. Figure 2.4.8
Manually pull the pin forward to ensure it goes through the magazine and into the jaw
set.

2.4 Jaw Set Installation (Air supply must be disconnected)
With the cover off, loosen the four 5mm screws holding the jaws into the block
Remove the jaws and replace with new set.
Retighten the four 5mm screws.
Check the pin-jaw alignment for pin concentricity. With the air turned off and the
magazine in, place a piece of tubing in the jaw set and clamp the tubing manually with
the jaws. Pull the pin forward manually through the magazine and ensure that it lines up
with the center of the inner diameter of the tubing. Gently rotate the pin to ensure that
there is no wobble in the pin head.
Failure to do so may result in severe damage to both the magazine and jaw set!
If any wobble is detected, recheck that the threads on the cylinder and pin set are clean.
If there is still a wobble, the Pin Set Assembly is bad and another must be used.
2.5 Adjusting the Stop Gate

10
The distance between the end of the jaw set and the stop gate may need to be adjusted
according to what fitting is being used. This distance to adjust the stop gate is
determined by the gap between the fitting flange and the end of the tubing. Sliding the
stop gate away from the front of the unit will insert the fitting deeper into the tubing.
Figures 6 and 7 below show the tubing before adjusting the stop gate and after
adjusting the stop gate:
Figure 6 Figure 7
Unadjusted Stop Gate Adjusted Stop Gate
To adjust this distance, loosen the one 5mm socket cap screw on the side of the gate
and move the gate in or out depending on the stick out desired (figures 8 and 9 below).
Re-tighten the screw before attempting to run the unit.
Figure 8 –Loosening the socket head cap screw Figure 9 –Sliding the gate forward
If the fitting is not being fully inserted, adjust the gate backwards, towards the pin. If
the fitting is being pushed on too far, or the tubing is rolling, adjust the gate forward,
toward the operator. Verify that the tip of the pin set is well centered with the jaw set
in both a left-to-right view point and an up-and-down view point.

11
Close the Cover on the CRD610 and tighten the six button head screws on each side
using a 3mm hex wrench.
Notice: It is not recommended to operate the CRD610with the cover open.
2.6Magazine Installation
Select the appropriate magazine that corresponds to the fitting being installed.
Slide the fittings into the slot on the magazine so that the barbed end (the end you will
insert into the tube) is protruding. Put enough parts into the magazine to fill it.
Always have at least five fittings in the magazine or a jam may occur.
Place the magazine into the magazine rack with the parts facing the jaw set.
Check to see that the fittings have fully settled into the magazine.
With the air turned off, pull the pin forward and verify the pin set enters the magazine
and the fitting, and drives the fitting forward into the jaws.
Last Fitting Position Sensor –If the lower-most fitting in the magazine is not seated
correctly, the sensor will pick this up and the unit will not fire. This prevents the pin
set from crashing into the last fitting and damaging the pin set or magazine.
When no fitting is present or the fitting is not properly aligned, only the green ‘power
on’ LED will be on and amber sensor LED will be off. Figure 2.7.1
If a fitting is properly seated in the magazine, the sensor will detect this and display a
Amber LED as well as the single green ‘power on’ LED. Shown in the figures below is the
sensor with and without fittings. Figure 2.7.2

12
Figure 7- Sensor without fittings Figure 8 - Sensor with Fittings
Adjusting Last Fitting Sensor Position –By adjusting the sensor up or down, you can position the
sensor properly. Using five (5) thin strips of paper, make a spacing gauge for the Last Fitting Sensor.
(Figure 2.7.3)
Figure 9 –Unit with 5 strips of paper Figure 9.1 –Verifying LFS light “ON”
When four (4) strips of paper are inserted between the magazine and the top of the magazine rack, the
Last Fitting Sensor light should be on. (Figure 9.1)
If the Last Fitting Sensor does not light with four (4) strips of paper, use a 3mm Metric Hex
Wrench (T Handle preferred) to adjust the sensor position upwards (turn the adjustment screw
clockwise) until the Last Fitting Sensor light turns on. (Figure 9.2 & 9.3)

After verifying that the Last Fitting Sensor light is lit with four (4) pieces of paper, add the fifth
strip of paper between the magazine and the top of the magazine rack. (Figure 9.4)
The Last Fitting Sensor light should go out. If the light goes out, press firmly on the top of the
magazine as shown (Figure 9.5) to check if the light will come back on.
Figure 9.4 –Five strips of paper Figure 9.5 –Pressing on magazine
If the Last Fitting Sensor light remains lit with five (5) strips of paper between the magazine and the top
of the magazine rack, adjust the sensor downward (turning the adjustment screw counter-clockwise)
until the light goes out, then return to the previous steps detailing figures 9.1 –9.3.

100.75 Operation
3.1 Loading Magazine and Jaws
Hook up the air FIRST and then turn on the power
Fill the magazine with fittings (5 minimum)
Insert a tube into the jaws, pushing forward until gate switch is hit.
Unit will cycle pushing the fitting into tube and then dropping the assembly down
3.2 Fitting Sensor Lamp
Yellow lamp is always on when machine is operating. If lamp is out it indicates that
the magazine is empty of fittings or the fitting is not all the way down in the proper
position in the magazine.
100.75 Maintenance
4.1 Daily
Once each day: the pin set should be retightened onto the air
cylinder. Loose pin sets can result in damage to the unit.
Once each day: ensure that the screws holding the jaws on are tight.
Loose screws will allow the jaws to move enough that fittings may
not properly insert into the tubing.
Once each day: disconnect the air at the rear of the unit and pull the
pin set toward the magazine hole and be sure that it enters the hole
freely (without hanging up on the side-wall). The pin set must enter
the magazine hole without moving the magazine or damage can
occur.
4.2 Every three months
Once every three months, the lid should be opened and the inside
around the jaw set and magazine should be cleaned via air (no more
than 30psi). This will remove any dust that has collected. At this time,
air connectors on the manifold should be checked for tightness. The
pin-set should be checked to make sure it is tight. Any dust or debris
which the blown air did not clean up should be wiped away.
