Operating Instructions
SAFETY
Never use power tools or clamps for anything other than their intended
purpose, if in doubt consult factory
Keep hands away from clamps being tensioned
Always wear safety glasses when operating power tool
INITIAL TOOL SETUP
All Band-Master® ATS pneumatic tools with counter operate on compressed
air. Connect air supply to regulator assembly using a quick-disconnect socket
1/4” body. This connection is recommended so tool can be moved to another
location or disconnected from air supply when not in use. Supply pressure to
regulator assembly must be between 100-110 PSI. Higher pressure could damage
internal components. Lower pressure slows tool down and makes cutting of band
uncertain. 40 micron pre-ltering element is recommended on contaminated
supply lines.
An air dryer is recommended on supply lines with water accumulation problems.
No lubricator is used on the tool. Introducing oil to air system will do more harm
than good.
All tools are factory set for nominal clamping conditions. Tension is set by
adjusting pressure on regulator assembly.
CAUTION: Under-tensioned clamps result in loose assemblies. Excessive tension
may damage clamp, backshell or band tool mechanism
Regulator assembly bench top mounting
In a permanent installation, regulator assembly should be bolted to a at surface
to allow exible cord to be stretched without dragging regulator assembly
(see Fig. 2 for mounting pattern). Keep lter vertical to maximize the water and
contaminant capacity.

Band-Master® assembly instructions for 601-106/601-107 tool
heads to 601-311 regulator
1. Assemble tool and regulator using coil hose.
2. Adjust pressure by opening cover, loosen the 5/16 hex nut slightly under the
adjustment knob.
3. Touch ON/OFF button on the digital gage to turn on readout. Readout will
auto shuto after 20 minutes
NOTE: Pressure is factory set, adjust only if necessary. Pressures are for reference
only, exact values change from tool to tool.
4. Adjust the regulator while reading the digital pressure gage to achieve the
correct psi, resulting in the pull required for each type of band:
• Standard tool 1/4 inch band, 44 psi, 150 pound pull.
• Micro tool 1/8 inch band, 23 psi, 80 pound pull.
See pages 11 and 12 for additional pressure adjustment information
5. The digital gauge on the top of the regulator assembly MUST indicate the
proper pressure for the type of tool and band used.
6. Lock the adjustment shaft by tightening the 5/16 nut under the adjustment
knob. Do not overtighten the adjustment locking nut.

Operating Instructions
Band-Master® ATS Operating Instructions
1. Insert band tail through the tool nose opening (see Fig. 3), making sure that
clamp circle is directed away from the tool body.
2. To tension the band, press and hold down actuator button. Always install
bands perpendicular to the axis of the object to be clamped. Do not force
tool sideways or in any other direction when band tail is under tension or
during cut-o. Doing so may damage clamp and/or tool.
3. The Band-Master® ATS pneumatic tool with counter will automatically cut
the band once the desired tension has been reached. If no cut-o occurs,
check to make sure the automatic cut-o switch has been turned “on”(the
silver switch on the back side of the handle should point toward the red reset
button). If the switch is pointing in the wrong direction, ip it to the “auto”
position and the tool will cut o the band. If cut-o stalls, turn switch o and
immediately on again while holding down actuator button. This may have to
be done only once with the rst band, after tool has been pressurized.
4. Immediately after cut-o, release actuator button and remove the excess
band from the tool.
Press and hold down
actuator button until
banding is completed

Important notes:
Air supply line pressure is critical. 100-110 psi is required at the inlet port
of the regulator assembly to allow the tool to operate properly. For line
pressures less than 100 psi the tool must be tested for proper operation.
DO NOT ADJUST THE REGULATOR ON THE REGULATOR ASSEMBLY OVER
100 PSI
Do not over tighten the 5/16 inch hex locking collar for the regulator shaft,
damage may occur.
Improperly installed clamps may result in faulty shield termination and
insucient ground bonding.
Do not twist or force tool or cable assembly in any direction while installing
clamps.
Always install clamps perpendicular to the axis of the cable being terminated.
When clamping irregular shaped band platforms, choose a location of the
buckle where it is well supported on the bottom. A properly designed
backshell with a lip are essential when tensile loads may be expected.
To verify tension setting after the tool has been at rest for some time, actuate
the tool momentarily and conrm pressure setting on the digital pressure
gauge.

601-106 and 601-107
Operating Instructions
Glenair recommends that banding occur on an unxtured cable assembly.
Trying to band on a rmly xed surface may aect the applied forces and
interfere with the cut-o operation. The cut-o operation causes a rotation
of the band termination in order to aect a lock. Therefore, when performing
the banding operation on a xtured cable or device the operator MUST allow
the band tool to rotate slightly as the cut-o operation is performed.
MAINTENANCE
Drain water accumulation from lter assembly: See Fig. 4
1. Disconnect air pressure.
2. Holding bottom of lter rotate lter housing up, away from regulator body
and place a small cup under the lter.
3. Push in the valve at the base of the lter to drain water.

Adjust cut-o timer See Fig. 6
1. Do not alter factory setting, unless
necessary.
2. A small copper screw found on the
back of the tool handle (above the
reset button) adjusts the cut-o timing.
3. Using a small, standard screwdriver,
turn the screw clockwise to increase
the cut-o delay, and counter-clockwise
to decrease the cut-o delay.
Caution: Adjusting cut-o delay timing too short
will result in premature cut-o, and a loose clamp.
Note: Normal delay is between 1 and 2 seconds after shuttle stops cycling.

This procedure is easier to do if tool is connected to air supply.
1. Remove two button head cap screws (BHCS) with 1/16 hex keys. Two hex
keys will be needed to complete this step.
2. Push out two BHCS screws and threaded sleeve nuts using one of the 1/16
hex keys, then remove cuto knife by pushing mounting pin out.
3. When BHCS/threaded sleeves are
removed, lift cuto blade out of
tool head.
4. Assemble in reverse order
5. If needed loctite, low strength,
222, purple, can be applied to
BHCS screw.
6. Torque BHCS to 2-3 in/lbs.

601-107 Standard Pneumatic Tool with Counter
can only use .120” wide Band-Master® ATS bands.
4. Condition of locking lip should be visually inspected on completed clamps.
If lip appears partially torn, damaged or not present at all, check tool tension
and condition of blade and knife. Make necessary adjustments and repairs.
Be sure to remove and replace faulty clamps. If lip is damaged or missing,
re-calibrate tool tension, check condition of cutter blade and knife, replace if
worn or damaged.
NOTE: 1) If poor cuto quality persists after knife and blade replacement, the tool
must be serviced 2) Band can be removed by lifting buckle with a screwdriver or
diagonal cutters.
