COMPRESSION TOOL OPERATION
1. To slide the compression jaws
onto the tool cylinder, always
push the long compression jaw
first and then the short one.
2. By rotating the tool cylinder,
the compression jaws can be
brought into the correct working
position.
3. Secure both jaws into place by
fully inserting the short locking
pin into the long compression jaw
and the longer locking pin into
the shorter jaw.
Caution:
Ensure the identical alignment of
the double jaws (for example,
25 mm). Always fully insert the
locking pins!
4. Always change the compres-
sion jaws in the starting position
(tool handle in maximum config-
uration).

The pipe gripper is used when
making vertical joints to keep
the compression sleeve away
from the pipe expansion area.
The pipe gripper can be used to
push back and hold the insula-
tion or corrugated tube to provide
the space needed for making the
compression sleeve joints.
