Assembly:

·         Attach power cord from transformer to electric driver and tighten knurled ring on both ends finger tight.

·         Plug transformer into standard 110 VAC outlet.

·         Set transformer output to the low speed setting and make sure transformer power is off until ready for use.

·         Assemble installation mandrel into chuck of electric driver using the chuck key.

Tangless® Inserts:  use KATO CT16000 Series Mandrels.

Tanged Inserts:  use KATO CTSB Series Mandrels.

·         Put electric driver directional switch in the for (forward) position - note this switch is located on the side of the driver opposite the trigger,  for insert installation this switch should always be set in the for position and the driver will reverse direction automatically. 

Operation:

·         Adjust the torque of the driver to the lowest setting by turning the knurled barrel located at the front of the tool toward the chuck.

·         With the transformer set to the low speed setting, turn the power switch to on and press the trigger on the driver to test the operation of the unit.  Check to see that the mandrel is correctly positioned in the chuck. 

Installation procedure:

·         Follow the instructions for installing tangless inserts with the CT16002 & CT16003 series of installation tools,  or follow the instructions for installing standard tanged inserts with the CTSB series of installation tools.

·         Start with the lowest torque setting and increase as required to reach the minimum torque level that will install the insert.  This will minimize the possibility of breaking the mandrel or pawl  and increase tool life.  As operator skill increases, set the transformer output  to hi for faster production rates.
