Cautions on working
If you move the arm from the tying position during
the wire tying process, the wire will get stuck on
the hook, which may lead to incorrect tying.
Keep pressing the tool against the rebars until the
wire tying process is completed.
Do not move to the next tying point until the
current wire tying process is completed.
The tool tip rotating part (hook) twists the wire
during the wire tying
process. Hold the grip
firmly so that your body is not pulled by
the tool.
Do not touch the wires during the wire tying
process.
If you are repeating the wire tying processes in the
single actuation mode, fully
release your finger from the
switch trigger. Then, continue to operate the
switch trigger.
If you pull the switch trigger when there is no tie
wire left, an error is displayed. Replace with a new
tie wire and restart the tool.
Tying tips
Tilt the tool at a 45° angle to the crossed rebars,
and tie alternately as shown
in the figure.
Fig.31
Avoid strumous sections of rebars. Fig.32
If tying strength is
insufficient, change the tying
orientation and perform tying twice so that
tying strength increases.
