6.2 Disassembly
6.2.1 Removing the inserts
• DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FROM
THE CRIMPER.
• OPEN THE MAIN JAWS MANUALLY
• EXTRACT THE INSERTS
• IF REQUIRED, REMOVE THE MAIN
JAWS
6.2.2 Removing the mini-jaws
• DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FROM
THE CRIMPER.
• RELEASE THE LOCKING SYSTEM
• EXTRACT THE MINI-JAW
6.3 Preparing the tube and coupling
6.3.1 Tube preparation
WARNING: non-respect of any instructions below may cause bad crimping and increase the risks of water, fire or
explosion damage.
It is important to refer to the safety and use instructions recommended by tube and coupling manufacturers. Virax
waives any liability if these instructions are not applied.
• CUT THE TUBE.
• DEBUR THE TUBE
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• The ends of the tube must be deburred to help inserting the coupling.
• The tube ends must be recalibrated at their nominal diameter over a length exceeding the insertion depth in the
coupling. The tube must be calibrated with a tool designed specifically to this effect. The tube must be cut if
calibrated improperly.
• To work on existing networks, eliminate all traces of paint over a length exceeding the insertion depth in the
coupling.
6.3.2 Preparing the coupling
• CHOOSE THE COUPLING ADAPTED
TO THE TUBE TO INSTALL.
• CHOOSE THE MINI-JAWS OR
INSERTS ADAPTED TO THE COUPLING.
6.3.3 Placing the fitting
• PLACE THE COUPLING.
Omitting to deactivate the machine and disconnect the crimper
battery before adjusting or changing accessories may cause severe
body injury.
Extracting the inserts is easier to perform when the main jaws are in
the open position. Never open the main jaws when activating the
machine.
Lift the red latches on the outer part of the main jaws and slide the
inserts to one of the sides of the main jaws.
Turn the locking button by a half turn. A spring under the locking
button helps extracting the axis.
Omitting to disconnect the battery before adjusting or changing
accessories may cause severe body injury.
Turn the locking button by a half turn. A spring under the locking
button helps extracting the axis.
An injury may occur as the mini-jaw can be extracted by falling under
its own weight. Extract the mini-jaw from the front of the machine.
Cut the tube perpendicular to its axis. Ensure the cut is clean,
particularly when using couplings with elastomeric gaskets.
Debur the tube to eliminate any burrs and/or cutting edges.
Check the coupling is adapted to the tube's diameter, as well as that
the tube's material and thickness are compatible with the coupling
(refer to the coupling manufacturer for information on calibration).
Use the profile and diameter recommended in the instructions
supplied with the couplings.
Slide the coupling onto the tube with a twisting movement. Check that
the coupling is well adapted to the tube selected.
