Periodic maintenance of S15 automatic gun
1. Check that all cables and lugs are not damaged and properly tighten in gun and unit.
2. Check that the right pinholder is installed in the gun.
See selection of pinholders in the
accessories section of this manual.
Make sure the pinholder is tight on the gun, otherwise a spark can destroy the axle.
Use a wrench to hold the nut from turning and tighten the pinholder as shown in the
picture. Do not allow the main shaft to turn, only turn the pinholder to tighten. Use one
8mm and one 10mm wrench for 8-9,5 mm and M8 pinholders.
Two 10mm wrenches for M10 and M12 pinholders.
Make sure, never twist the main shaft when mounting the pinholder!
When loading the brazing pin, it should not go in loose into the pinholder, if it does
push the pinholder together with your ngers to gain a tighter t. Otherwise you can
have a contact fault or a spark can arise if their is not a tight contact.
3. Check that the ringholder is the right type. You can remove it by hand and its ease
of removing can be adjusted with the small screw on the side of the gun (see photo).
4. Load the gun with the appropriate pin & ferrule. Check that the axle moves easily
with the pin and ferrule installed by pushing back and forward on the pin with your
nger (see photo).
If the pin does not move easily, change either pinholder or ringholder.
If it still does not move easily the axle is damaged and must be sent for repair.
