Inspection and maintenance of inserts and jaws

Insert guaranteed 5 years (except profile).
Before using, read these instructions as well as the machine operating instructions and
the coupling manufacturer's instructions. Failure to fully follow and understand these
instructions may result in serious material damage and serious or even fatal injury.
Safety:
Wear eye protection when working, to protect against projectiles.
Only use Virax inserts.
Failure to use the machine in accordance with our instructions may result in serious or even
fatal injury.
Keep hands and fingers away from the pliers during the pressing cycle to avoid any risk of
crushing or amputation.
Never replace components yourself. Any component that has been modified in any way
whatsoever may cause serious or fatal injury.

Servicing and maintenance:

Check daily that the profile of your inserts is as shown in the
photographs below:
Profile H-ML: 1, Profile TH: 2, Profile U: 3, Profile HA: 4 and Profile RF-P: 5.
Check for corrosion, dirt or accumulated foreign matter daily.
Clean the inserts with a medium or coarse steel wool then lightly oil the pressing profiles daily.
Avoid using abrasive materials such as emery board, sandpaper, abrasive materials, a
grinding file or a rotary file, as this might damage the inserts or alter their dimensions.
Any modifications risk to cause leaks.
Regularly check the condition of the main jaw. Check that the jaws close correctly (with the
inserts in place!).
If the formation of whiskers prevents the inserts coming into contact at the end of the
pressing operation, replace the inserts.
Return the inserts to your dealer for inspection once a year.
Clean and lubricate the hinge pins of the main jaw with bearing grease annually without
removing.
Clean, lubricate and check the working of the spring daily (the pliers must open without effort
and close on their own).
Visually inspect the jaw components every day.
If abnormal wear or cracks can be seen on one of the jaw components, it must be
replaced.
Never replace components yourself. Any component that has been modified in any way
whatsoever may cause serious or fatal injury.
Using a damaged jaw or inserts will cause serious material damage and/or injury.
