In addition to the general safety rules opposite, the following specific safety points must also
be observed:
THE OPERATING PRESSURE SHALL NOT EXCEED 7 BAR - 100 LBF/IN2.
DO NOT OPERATE THE TOOL WITHOUT FULL NOSE EQUIPMENT, OIL PLUG AND OIL
BLEED SCREW IN PLACE.
WHEN USING THE TOOL, THE WEARING OF SAFETY GLASSES IS REQUIRED BOTH BY
THE OPERATOR AND OTHERS IN THE VICINITY TO PROTECT AGAINST FASTENER
PROJECTION, SHOULD A FASTENER BE PLACED ‘IN AIR’. WE RECOMMEND WEARING
GLOVES IF THERE ARE SHARP EDGES OR CORNERS ON THE APPLICATION.
TAKE CARE TO AVOID ENTANGLEMENT OF LOOSE CLOTHES, TIES, LONG HAIR,
CLEANING RAGS ETC… IN THE MOVING PARTS OF THE TOOL WHICH SHOULD BE KEPT
DRY AND CLEAN FOR BEST POSSIBLE GRIP.
WHEN CARRYING THE TOOL FROM PLACE TO PLACE KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM THE
TRIGGER/LEVER AND EMERGENCY SPIN-OFF BUTTON TO AVOID INADVERTENT START
UP.
EXCESSIVE CONTACT WITH HYDRAULIC OIL SHOULD BE AVOIDED. TO MINIMIZE THE
POSSIBILITY OF RASHES, CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO WASH THOROUGHLY.

The hydro-pneumatic 74401 tool is designed to place Avdel threaded inserts at high speed making it ideal for batch or flow-line

All tools are operated with compressed air at an optimum pressure of 5.5 bar. We recommend the use of pressure regulators and
automatic oiling/filtering systems on the main air supply. These should be fitted within 3 metres of the tool (see diagram below) to ensure
maximum tool life and minimum tool maintenance.
Air supply hoses should have a minimum working effective pressure rating of 150% of the maximum pressure produced in the system
or 10 bar, whichever is the highest. Air hoses should be oil resistant, have an abrasion resistant exterior and should be armoured where
operating conditions may result in hoses being damaged. All air hoses MUST have a minimum bore diameter of 6.4 mm or 1/4inch.
Read servicing daily details page 10.
S T R O K E A D J U S T M E N T
This adjustment is necessary to ensure optimum insert deformation.
It is suggested, therefore, that a test plate with the same thickness
and hole size as workpiece be used.
If deformation is insufficient, the insert will rotate inside the
application.
If deformation is excessive, thread distortion will occur and
possibly drive screw fracture.
The stroke is adjusted by the amount the stroke adjustment locknut
12, (parts list page 15), is screwed in or out. To shorten stroke,
screw in; to lengthen stroke, unscrew the rear casing. Adjust until
optimum deformation is obtained.

Connect tool to air supply.
Offer up insert, lip first to drive screw. A light pressure will start the motor and automatically thread the insert up against nose and
stop.
Insert fastener into application squarely.
Fully depress trigger. This will both place insert into the application and reverse it off the drive screw.

Refer to the illustration opposite for details.
Using the base 6 as a guide, spot through and drill four
5.5mm diameter holes in the position required on the cabinet
lid.
Place plate 12 on the inside of the cabinet lid.
Place base 6 on the outside of the cabinet and using screws 7,
screw the base / cabinet lid / and plate in position.
Insert tube with hook 2 into the holster 4 and secure the holster
4 in position by tightening bolt 3 into nut 5.
Insert tube and holster into base 6 and lock into position by
tightening bolt 8 into bolt 5.
Drill two 5.5mm holes, one at either end of the cabinet lid and
secure clips 10 in position with 5mm bolts 9.

CONNECTING THE FOOT PEDAL
Please refer to the illustration for details.
Disconnect the tool from the air supply.
Open base 53.
Identify valve 27 connected to the air pressure regulator
48 (point F on GA, page 16).
Disconnect the 4mm output hose which feeds the tool
trigger (hose 68, page 18).
Connect 4mm air hose 4to valve 27.
Connect the Y connector to air hose 4.
To one side of the Y connector, connect the hose from the
tool trigger.
To the other side of the Y connector, connect air hose 2.
Connect air hose 2to the foot pedal.
Close base 53 and reconnect air supply.
Tool can now be operated with the foot pedal or the trigger
and the emergency spin-off button 44 is still operable.

It is essential that the correct nose assembly is fitted prior to operating the tool. By knowing your original complete tool part number
or the details of the fastener to be placed, you will be able to order a new complete nose assembly using the selection tables on page 9.
* refers to items included in the Avdel service kit. For complete list see page 11.
SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
Nose assemblies should be serviced at weekly intervals.
Remove the complete nose assembly using the reverse proce-
dure to the ‘Fitting Instructions’.
Any worn or damaged part should be replaced by a new
part.
Particularly check wear on drive screw.
Assemble according to fitting instructions.
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
If still fitted remove the nose casing and the adaptor nut.
Insert drive shaft 4 into spindle.
Fit drive screw 3 onto drive shaft 4.
Insert reducing sleeve 5 (if required) into the adaptor nut.
Screw the adaptor nut onto the spindle.
Hold the spindle with a spanner* and tighten the adaptor nut clockwise.
While holding the adaptor nut with the spanner*, tighten the lock nut anti-clockwise.
Screw on the nose casing and nose tip 1 with the nose tip lock nut.
The reverse operation is carried out for equipment removal.
With tool still disconnected from air supply, screw one insert onto drive screw manually - making sure the insert is flush with the
end of drive screw.
Set nose tip in exact position and lock nose tip nut clockwise with a spanner*.
Remove the insert from drive screw.
lItems in grey are included in the base tool.
I M P O R T A N T
The air supply must be disconnected when fitting or removing nose assemblies unless specifically instructed
otherwise.
