Putting Into Service

Preparation for Use

CAUTION - CORRECT PULL AND RETURN PRESSURES ARE IMPORTANT FOR PROPER FUNCTION OF THE
ISTALLATION TOOL. PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT MAY OCCUR WITHOUT CORRECT
PRESSURES. THE PULL AND RETURN PRESSURES SUPPLIED BY THE HYDRAULIC PUMP UNIT MUST NOT
EXCEED THOSE PRESSURES LISTED IN THE PLACING TOOL SPECIFICATION
IMPORTANT – BEFORE PUTTING THE PLACING TOOL AND HYDRAULIC HOSE SET INTO SERVICE:
ENSURE THAT THE PUMP PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES HAVE BEEN SET IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PUMP
INSTRUCTIONS AND THE MAXIMUM PRESSURES SPECIFIED FOR THE PLACING TOOL AND HOSES.
ENSURE THAT THE HOSE KIT IS PRIMED WITH HYDRAULIC FLUID IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROCEDURE IN
THE PUMP INSTRUCTION MANUAL 07900-01030.

Ensure the mains power supply to the hydraulic pump unit is switched off.

Connect the placing tool hydraulic hose quick couplers directly to the pump unit before connecting the electrical
control cable. Hoses and control cable must be connected in this order and disconnected in reverse order.

Switch on the mains supply to the hydraulic pump unit. Wait 5 seconds for the pump unit to complete the boot
sequence, before pressing the trigger switch. When all set the LCD screen on the pump unit will display
'AVDEL'.
 During the boot sequence the pump control system identifies any trigger operation as a potential malfunction
and prevents the motor from starting. The LCD screen will display 'BUTTON FAULT' in this instance. Reset by
switching off the power supply for 10 seconds.

Ensure that the placing tool is positioned below the pump reservoir tanks. Depress and release the placing tool
trigger switch a few times to almost the full stroke of the tool to circulate hydraulic fluid and expel any air from
the tool.

Observe action of tool. Check for fluid leaks and ensure that in the idler mode the piston is in the fully forward
position. The placing tool will now be primed.
 Switch off the mains power supply to the hydraulic pump unit and then disconnect the placing tool from the
pump unit in reverse order to that described above.
 Now connect the placing tool to the primed hydraulic hose kit and electrical control cable. Then connect
hydraulic hose kit quick couplers and the electrical control cable to the pump unit.

Attach the nose assembly to the tool as per the instructions in the relevant nose assembly datasheet.

Switch on the mains supply to the hydraulic pump unit as described above.
 Depress and release the placing tool trigger switch a few times to almost the full stroke of the tool to circulate
hydraulic fluid.

The placing tool is now ready for use.
