RAUTOOL A-LIGHT2
ImpORTAnT nOTes
Always apply clamping jaws or
jointing technique at right angles,
making sure they completely contact
the entire surface.
As a matter of principle, always
insert the expanding tool into the
pipe up to the stop.
Do not tilt the expanding tool!
Make sure the tting is correctly
seated in the tool. Applying the tool
to the wrong tting collar will over-
compress the joint!
Never work with a damaged
expander head as this will damage
the pipe! Replacements are available
from your dealer or from the REHAU
sales ofce.
Your tool is equipped with the REHAU
RO expander system. In order to
avoid damage to the pipe, do not
use REHAU RE expander system
parts (until 1996) with RO expander
system components!
When using an expander bit, check
to make sure that the seating (fully
inside the jaws) and clamping action
of the bit in the jaws are correct (to
avoid falling out).
Failure to observe these instructions may result in material damage.
Failure to observe these instructions may result in material damage and/or personal injury.
Attention:
Do not touch moving parts (risk of
trapping ngers)!
Attention:
Do not expand the pipe under
bending stress!
Expanding tool and pipe axis must
be identical in the expansion area
(approx. three compression sleeve
lengths):
if necessary, readjust the pipe by
bending.
Regularly grease the expander taper
(tube of lubricant included). To avoid
excess grease entering the pipe, do
not grease the taper too much.
Attention:
Do not grease the expander seg-
ments that are in contact with the
pipe!
