Avoiding hazards caused by defective pressing
attachments
Pressing attachments (pressing jaws, pressing collars,
adapter jaws) are exposed to serious forces during the
pressing procedure and wear out.
The use of worn or damaged pressing attachments can lead
to serious injuries or death from flying fragments.
• Only use pressing attachments if they are in perfect working
order
• Adhere to maintenance intervals
• Regularly inspect pressing attachments for defects and
damage before and after every use. Inspect the pressing
attachments particularly for incipient cracks in the pressing
contour and on the flange
• If incipient cracks are detected, take the entire pressing
attachment out of service immediately and do not reuse
Avoiding damage to the pressing attachments due to
incorrect pressing operations
Pressing attachments can be damaged by incorrect pressing
operations or use; for example, pressing foreign bodies at the
same time.
• Only use Geberit pressing attachments that carry the same
compatibility mark as the pressing tool
• Only use pressing attachments that correspond to the
diameter of the pressfittings to be processed
• Do not tilt the pressing attachment on the pressfitting
• If you suspect that the pressing attachment is damaged,
replace it and have the damaged pressing attachment
tested by an authorised repair shop
