DOUBLE FLARING TOOL INSTRUCTIONS

The rotary mandrel turret is correctly and positively set and held in place by a sprung ball. To remove the turret, set it to a position exactly between any
two mandrels and pull it upward. The turret can be put back again in a similar position. Make sure that the turret is pushed all the way down to the base.

1. Grip the tool firmly in a vice. Screw the lever into the cam assembly. Loosen the spindle bolts and swivel the cover plate aside.

2. Select the appropriately sized clamping jaw-set and insert them horizontally into the clamping jaw housing. The flaring recess must be located opposite
the rotary mandrel turret.

3. Insert the prepared tube into the clamping jaws from behind until the tube end is flush with the front of the clamping jaws.

4. Both halves of the clamping jaws must be seated at the rear stop. Now swivel the cover plate in and tighten the clamping jaws firmly by means of the
locking spindle.

5. For single flare, select the respective OP.1 mandrel by turning the mandrel turret until the desired mandrel is opposite the end of the tube.

6. Pull the activation lever through 180°. This pushes the turret towards the tube and the mandrel forms a respective convex or DIN flange.

7. Place the activation lever to the initial position. This causes the springs to withdraw the mandrel from the formed flange.

*Note: If a double flange is required, turn the turret to the respective OP.2 position. Now repeat procedures 6 and 7.

8. The desired flange has now been made. Release the spindle and swivel out the cover plate and remove the tube. If required, you can release the tube
from the clamping jaws by tapping them lightly on the workbench.

Important:
Every type of tube must be properly prepared prior to flaring:
I) Cut the tube end at a right angle.
II) Radius the outside.
III) Remove burrs from the inside.

Plastic-coated Tubes:
Remove the coating with a sharp cutting instrument leaving 2-3 mm at the tube end free. Do not use a file or abrasives. Remove any remaining plastic
particles with a plastic brush (never use a wire brush). After flanging and bending, always clean the tube by blowing air through it.
