INSTALLING THE DIE SET
QUICK CHANGE
Quick Change Tool Base enables storing die sets under the machine. Die sets can be installed into the master dies
with a quick change tool one set at a time.
• Before installing dies, make sure that the master dies are clean.
• STOP THE MOTOR PRIOR TO CLEANING DIES.
• Open the dies to maximum retraction.
• Insert the pins of the tool into the die set in the die table, turn the tool clockwise and pull the whole set out.
• Hold the handle of the quick change tool as shown in figures below, and make sure your hand will not get
between the dies.
• Mount the die set between master dies and start closing the dies.
TO AVOID DAMAGING MASTER DIES, MAKE SURE THAT ALL DIE SET PINS HIT IN THEIR HOLES.
• Close the master dies completely until the pins are locked in their places. Remove the tool. The dies are now
ready for use.
• Die set is removed from the master dies in reverse order: close the dies, insert the tool into the die set, open
the master dies and place the set back in the die table.

CAUTION! THE MOTOR SHALL ALWAYS BE STOPPED DURING INSTALLATION OF DIES.
• Prior to installing dies, clean the contact surfaces of both the die set and master dies properly to avoid damaging
the surfaces.
• Pull the pull pin in the master die with the tool delivered together with the machine (see figure).
• Insert the die with the retaining pin into the master die, die number always towards you. Release the pull pin.
• After installing all the dies, make sure they are straight and properly seated in the master dies.
