2.
Place the Ground Pin Setting Tool over the end of the hand-tool and across the
Ground Pin tip. There should be no gap visible between the Gauge and the tip
of the Ground Pin.
3.
If there is a gap the Ground Pin may be adjusted by loosening the internal
Ground Pin Clamp Screw.
CAUTION
DO NOT COMPLETELY REMOVE THE CLAMP SCREW. Completely removing the
screw will allow internal components to drop into the E-Drill housing. Simply loosen
the screw sufficiently to relieve the clamping force on the pin shaft.
4.
Carefully pull the Ground Pin out incrementally (do not use any tools for this – if
properly loosened, the Ground Pin should slide out relatively easily), recheck
Pin length with the Pin Gauge allowing the Gauge to push the Pin back to the
correct protrusion.
5.
To replace the Ground Pin, grip Ground Pin Assembly firmly and pull it straight
out of the nose of the E-Drill taking care not to bend it during extraction. Make
sure there is no remaining clamping force on the Ground Pin if removal is
difficult. As the Ground Pin Assembly is extracted, the Ground Pin Centering
Guide will come out with the Ground Pin. Discard Ground Pin and Centering
Guide once removed.
6.
Lightly coat the shaft of the new Ground Pin Assembly with a light coating of O-
Ring Lube (do not over lubricate). Insert the prepared Ground Pin Assembly into
the nose of the E-Drill pressing it through the E-Drill’s internal seals. Use care
not to bend the Ground Pin during insertion. Use Ground Pin Gauge to set the
proper pin length and secure the Ground Pin Clamp Screw (do not use
excessive torque).
Press the Ground Pin Centering Guide on the Ground Pin Assembly into its seat
in the Electrode Conducting Tube Bore using the tip of an Electrode. Install the
required Electrode and Adapter and resume E-Drill operation.
