The Upper Tool Holder
The Upper Tool Holder is secured to the machine’s cylinder rod by the black serrated knob on its
right side. You can usually leave this Upper Tool Holder in the machine. If you do remove it, be
very careful. There are continuity springs and guide pins inside the Upper Tool Holder. These items
are very important part of the Haeger Safety System and must not be removed. If they are lost,
do not operate the machine until they have been replaced.
Large tools, such as the One Touch vacuum anvil, are secured in the Upper Tool Holder by a M6
x 6 SHSS (Socket Head Set Screw) located on the right side of the Upper Tool Holder.
For smaller tools, such as the standard Manual Tooling line, a Standard Tool Adapter may be
installed in the Upper Tool Holder using the same M6 x 6 SHSS. The smaller tools are held in the
Standard Tool Adapter by another M6 x 6 SHSS also located on the right side of the Standard Tool
Adapter.
When installing any tool or the Standard Tool Adapter, always make sure that it is pushed in as far
as possible and is securely held by the M6
screw(s).
Steps to Install an Upper Tool
1. Loosen the M5 set screw in the Tool Holder or Adapter.
2. Insert the tool into the Tool Holder or Adapter.
3. Tighten the M6 set screw until the tool is locked securely in place.
The Safety System’s
heavy duty
retractable electrical cord is
very durable; however, caution should be taken when
working close to the edge of deep boxes or cans. Operating
with the Safety System’s electrical cord too close to sharp
metal edges may damage the cord.
Important: If this thumb screw is lost, DO NOT
replace it with just any length 5mm screw. Using too
long of a screw will damage the safety switch.
