1: INTRODUCTION
The PATMFM4.0 Table-Top Bench Mount Tool Fixture allows an operator to apply cable ties onto a wiring
harness with minimal strain. The fixture requires an existing PAT4.0 Fully Automatic Cable Tie Installation
System and can utilize both the PAT1M4.0 and PAT1.5M4.0 Handheld Tie Installation Tools. The PAT4.0
Hand Tool is mounted in the PATMFM4.0 fixture such that the work can be brought to the tool and actuated
simultaneously. Follow the step-by-step instructions below to install and operate the PATMFM4.0 Fixture.
NOTE: In the interest of higher quality and value, Panduit products are continually
being improved and updated.
Consequently, pictures may vary from the enclosed product.
2: SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS
The Panduit Corporation PATMFM4.0 Table-Top Bench Mount Fixture consists of seven individual units:
The Table-Top Fixture, Fixture Tool Cage, EI Communication Cable, Tip Deflector, Tool Cavity Cover,
Table-Top Template and the PATMFM4.0 Air Regulator.
NOTE: Any substitution may cause serious damage to the system and/or injury to the operator.
2A: PATMFM4.0 Table-Top Fixture
The PATMFM 4.0 Table-Top Fixture is electrically and pneumatically controlled via an existing PAT4.0
System. A concealed electrical enclosure (Item E) manages these connections via Item(s) G,H and I.
Reference scales (Item(s) D) allow an operator to reference the distance relative to the PAT1M4.0 and
PAT1.5M4.0 jaw centers from either direction. An Actuation Paddle (Item C) lays flat in its storage position
until released via the spring-loaded latch (Item B). This paddle once released and in its operational position,
is actuated by the operator to preform work.

2B: Fixture Tool Cage
The Fixture Tool Cage allows PAT1M4.0 and PAT1.5M4.0 Handheld Cable-Tie Installation Tools to be
mounted and installed into the PATMFM4.0 Table-Top Fixture. Installation of a Hand Tool is preceded by
removing the Rear Lower Tool Support (Item C) via the two thumbscrews (Item D). With the Rear Support
removed, a Hand Tool can be inserted and aligned relative to the Top and Bottom Front Tool Supports
(Item(s) A, B). Once a selected Tool is mounted into the Tool Cage and the Rear Support re-installed, the
Cage can be mounted onto the PATMFM4.0 Fixture, thus suspending the Tool such that only the top portion
of the Tool protrudes from the work surface. An airline (Item E) that exits the tool Cage is connected to the
PATMFM4.0 Fixture and delivers a controlled burst of air to the Actuation Trigger (Item G), engaging the
Tool Trigger (Item G) itself and beginning a cycle. Once complete, air is exhausted, the Actuation Trigger
retracts and the Tool is reset for a new cycle.

2C: EI Communication Cable
The EI Communication Cable routes power and data between the PAT4.0 System and the PATMFM4.0
Fixture. This is a standard 25 Position D-Sub Male to Male connector cable that utilizes Philips head screws
on both connector ends for retention. The Cable delivers power to the PATMFM4.0 Fixture from the PAT4.0
System and relays cycle status and Actuation Paddle state back to the PAT4.0 System.

2D: Tip Deflector
The Tip Deflector is similar to the Tip Collector originally provided with the PAT1M4.0 and PAT1.5M4.0
Handheld Tie Installation Tools. Instead of collecting the scrap produced, the Tip Deflector acts to divert
the waste under the work surface such that an appropriately located waste receptacle can be used under
said surface to collect scrap from multiple jobs/cycles without constant removal and clean up.

2E: Tool Cavity Cover
The Tool Cavity Cover is utilized when work is NOT preformed and a PAT1M4.0 or PAT1.5M4.0 Tool is
NOT installed within the Fixture Tool Cage (The Tool Cage can remain mounted onto the PATMFM4.0
Fixture). The Cavity Cover installs into the cavity, located on the top side of the PATMFM4.0 Fixture, in
order to restore the work surface area lost. This Cover aids in reducing the chance of materials falling
through this tool “cavity” and can be easily removed to resume work.

2F: Table-Top Template
The Table-Top Template is used prior to PATMFM4.0 Fixture installation in order to prepare a selected
work surface for the Fixture. A perimeter pattern of eight (8) total through holes and an aligned rectangular
pocket must be drilled and routed respectively in order to install the PATMFM4.0 Fixture successfully. A
proper work surface can be made from a variety of materials, either homogenous or engineered and the
PATMFM4.0 Fixture includes the necessary hardware for installation onto hardwood-based surfaces.
Reference the Minimum Work Surface Requirements table below for the minimum work surface dimensions
required to successfully install the PATMFM4.0 Fixture.

2G: Air Regulator
The PATMFM4.0 Air Regulator is designed to split and effectively “branch” the air regulator connection
already utilized by the PAT4.0 Fully Automatic Cable Tie Installation System. This branching air regulator
connects between the PAT4.0 System’s Air Regulator output and PAT4.0’s air input fitting to provide a
reduced operating pressure utilized by the PATMFM4.0 Fixture. The PATMFM4.0 Air Regulator is
adjustable and should be set to the recommended output specification (Table 4A) before connecting to and
operating the Fixture. Confirm this output pressure via the Air Regulator’s pressure gauge.
