Wireteknik A400 operating instructions
Operating Instructions · Use a pair of roller dies to fit the cable diameter
· Slip the dies onto the cogwheel synchronizing pins
· The arrows on the dies point in the direction of swaging
· Attach the terminal to the attachment fixture on the drawbar
· Adjust the length so the roller dies meet the terminal shank at the desired position
· Apply enough hydraulic pressure so the roller dies holds the terminal firmly
· Mark and insert the cable into the terminal throat
· Move the transparent protective shield into position
· Apply hydraulic pressure to draw the terminal between the roller dies
· As the roller dies rotate, they will press the terminal shank onto the wire rope
· Measure the diameter of the terminal after swaging, compare with the wire swaging dimensions list
Note: The swager is designed to reduce the terminal shank to required diameter in one pass. However dimension variations of terminals, cables or material hardness could make it necessary to pass the terminal twice.
When swaging solid rods, a special swaging compound must be used. After swaging wipe off the roller dies and swaging machine, apply a corrosion preventative.
The machines are designed to swage full steel wire rope or rod only.
