Instructions for G-405CA (other fixtures similar)
1. Remove front-end consumables (nozzle, retaining head, and neck
insulator), with the exception of TOUGH GUN I.C.E. Components.
2. Install the gauge point into the neck.
3. Slide neck completely into the datum block, aligning keys on neck to
keyway in datum block.
4. Turn the neck completely clockwise against shoulder.
5. To secure the neck, use a 5/16" Allen key to tighten the socket head
cap screw (SHCS) on the front of the datum block.
6. Push check pin towards gauge point.
7. Check pin should insert into the mating hole on gauge point.
8. Slip bending handle onto gauge point and bend until aligned with
check pin.
9. Remove neck from datum block and gauge point from neck.
10. Reinstall front-end consumables.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
There should always be a 0.016" gap between the neck body and the
datum block (see Figure 6-D) when the neck is properly installed.
If the rear stop was removed to close this gap, it must be reinstalled!
The rear stop should only be removed to clean debris from inside the
block and then immediately reinstalled.
Never operate the fixture without the rear stop installed.
