3585 Series Hydraulic Installation Tools (HK1080) Alcoa Fastening Systems & Rings
This section contains important information that should be
reviewed before using the tool. This information is offered
as guidance to help you work safely, and when used
in conjunction with the information in the MaIntenance
section, will extend the life of your tool.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
During disassembly and assembly, take the following
precautions to avoid damaging tool or components:
(a) Use materials such as brass, aluminum, or wood, to
protect tool when applying pressure.
(b) Apply continuous steady pressure, rather than sharp
blows, to disassemble or assemble components.
An arbor press provides steady pressure to press a
component in or out.
(c) Never force a component if it “hangs up” due to
misalignment. Reverse the procedure to correct
misalignment and start over.
(d) Smear LUBRIPLATE® 13O-AA (HUCK P/N 502723)
or equivalent on O-rings and mating surfaces to ease
assembly and prevent damage to O-rings.
(e) Coat Parker Threadmate, Loctite 567, or Slic-tite stick
to male pipe threads per manufacturer’s instructions.
DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY TOOLS
Working on these tools requires the use of standard
hand tools, such as wrenches, drifts, copper and lead
hammers, screwdrivers, socket screw hexagon keys,
and long forceps (tweezers). These can be purchased at
most supply rms and should be available. HUCK also
recommends having access to an arbor press and vise
with soft jaws.
HUCK has specially designed tools available for working
on this tool. See kIts & accessorIes.
POWER SOURCE CONNECTIONS
Use a HUCK Powerig, or equivalent, that has been
suitably prepared for operation.
1. Turn off the Powerig; disconnect its power supply.
2. Apply Parker Threadmate, Loctite 567, or Slic-tite stick
to male pipe threads per manufacturer’s instructions,
and then connect the hoses to the Powerig.
3. Connect the tool control switch cord to Powerig.
4. Connect the Powerig to the power supply and turn
it on. Press and hold the tool trigger for 30 seconds;
then press trigger a few times to cycle the tool and
circulate the hydraulic uid. Observe the action of the
tool and check for leaks. Turn off the Powerig.
5. Disconnect tool’s control switch cord from the
Powerig; disconnect the Powerig from the power
supply. Select a nose assembly for the fastener to be
installed and attach it to the tool.
6. Reconnect the Powerig to the power supply and the
tool’s switch control cord to the Powerig.
7. Check the operation of nose assembly; install
fasteners in a test plate of correct thickness with
proper size holes. Inspect installed fasteners.
NOTE: If fasteners do not pass inspection, see
troublesHootIng to investigate possible causes.

wear approved eye and hearing protection.
Be sure there is adequate clearance for the
operator’s hands before proceeding.
WARNING: HUCK recommends that a HUCK
Powerig be used to power HUCK tools.
Hydraulic units that deliver high PULL
and RETURN pressures—but which are
NOT equipped with RELIEF VALVES—are
specically NOT RECOMMENDED and may be
dangerous.
Set the PULL and RETURN pressures
as specied in sPecIfIcatIons. Failure to
properly set these pressures may result in
serious personal injury. Use HUCK Pressure
Gauge (P/N T-124883CE) as indicated in its
instruction manual.
CAUTION:
Do not use TEFLON®tape on pipe threads.
Tape can shred, resulting in malfunctions.
Keep disconnected hoses and couplers
and hydraulic uid free of foreign matter.
Contaminated uid can cause valve failures.
Do not abuse this tool by dropping it,
using it as a hammer, or otherwise causing
unnecessary wear and tear. Never carry the
tool by attached hoses.
WARNING: Connect the tool’s hydraulic hoses
to the HUCK Powerig® Hydraulic Unit before
connecting tool’s switch-control cord to the
Powerig.
Serious personal injury may occur if not
connected in this order AND if disconnected
in the reverse order.
