RING DOES NOT CLOSE CORRECTLY
1. Check air pressure. Line pressure at the tool should be between 90 and 95 psi (6.3 - 6.7 kg/cm sq.) for most applications. The tool
should never be operated at pressures exceeding 100 psi (7.0 kg/cm sq.) except for some stainless steel applications where 115 psi
(8.1 kg/cm sq.) is required to close the stainless steel ring completely.
2. A 3/8” (9.5 mm) or larger air line should be used with the “SC” Series Tools. Air lines in excess of 100’ (30.5 meters) in length can
cause air volume deficiencies at the tool which will prevent normal operation.
3. Check for foreign debris in the jaw area. This is especially true in the area between the side plates and rollers.
4. The jaws may be worn from extended use. Check the “land” between the receiving grooves of the jaws. If the land is worn
excessively, replacing the jaw(s) is recommended.
5. When the tool is used in corrosive applications, light oil should be applied on a regular basis to the jaw bushings and rollers.
Unlubricated and/or corroded jaw bushings may cause the tool to function poorly.
6. When ring teardrops, the latch is not backing the ring up properly. Replace or reshape latch spring to hold latch against the side
plate. The latch may also need to be replaced to get proper ring shape.
FEEDING PROBLEMS
1. If rings do not feed smoothly down the magazine, check pusher spring for proper tension. If the magazine is covered with dirt from
field use, clean the magazine and apply a light coating of oil.
2. When rings feed properly on the magazine but do not feed into the jaws without spitting out of the magazine side of the tool, or if
the rings sit in the jaw grooves on an angle, check jaws to ensure freedom of movement. With the jaws void of rings, the vertical
movement should be approximately .06” (1.5 mm). The jaw bolt nuts should be snug, but never over-tightened.
3. After considerable use or several jams, the fingers on the pusher may show signs of spreading. This may cause the pusher to “hang
up” on the magazine, with little or no pressure behind the rings. The last few rings in the strip will not feed into the jaw mechanism.
The pusher fingers can be squeezed back into proper position or the pusher should be replaced. NEVER USE LOOSE RINGS IN
THE SC TOOL.
