12. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. How to set the Tiewire
WARNING
• Set the Main switch (Fig.6.7) at "OFF", the Trigger lock
(Fig.6.8) at "LOCK" and remove the Battery pack
(Fig.6.0), when changing the Battery pack, replacing or
adjusting the Tiewire, abnormalities occur, and the tool is
not being used
1-1 (Fig.9) Press the Release Lever (Fig.9.3) of this
equipment, and confirm that the Release Lever is caught in
the Release Stopper (Fig.9.2).
1-2 (Fig.10) Peel off the tape fixing Tiewire by about 5cm (2").
Stretch out the tip of the wound Tiewire.
Be sure to use only the specified Tiewire (MAX
TW898 Series).
The use of binding wire that has not been specified may cause
breakdown of this equipment. Therefore, be sure only to use the
specified MAX TW898. Do not use binding wire that has become
rusted, since the use of rusted wire will cause equipment
breakdown.
* TW897A, old wire reel cannot be used.
1-3 (Fig.11) Push the Reel stopper (Fig.11.d) to release the
Reel holder (Fig.11.f).
1-4 (Fig.12) Set the Tiewire (Fig.12.c) in the tool by matching
the side of the Tiewire as shown in the picture. Then push
the Reel holder (Fig.12.f) and fix it by sliding the Reel
stopper.
1-5 (Fig.13) Insert the tip of the stretched out Tiewire into the
Wire Guide (Fig,13.m). Then put it into the Pipe (Fig.13.n).
NOTICE
1-6 Put the Wire around 4" (10cm) inside the Pipe.
1-7 The tip of the Tiewire should be straightened out to allow it
to pass through the wire feeding mechanism. When
mounting the Tiewire, the wire may become jammed inside
the machine if the wire tip is bent.
(Fig.14) If the window is dirty and the pipe position
can not be confirmed
Open the window and wipe off the dirt on the inside of the window
with a soft cloth, etc. Close the window again after cleaning to
ensure that foreign objects will not be able to enter the machine.
1-8 (Fig.14) Release the Release stopper (Fig.14.2), and
confirm that the Release lever (Fig.14.3) has returned to
its original position and that the Feeding gears (Fig.14.l)
are clamping the Tiewire (Fig.14.c). This completes the
Tiewire mounting operation.
1-9 Remove the tape from the Tiewire completely.
1-10 (Fig.15) Remove slack from wire spool. Make sure the
Tiewire does not get caught behind the wire spool .This
could lead to jamming.
WARNING
• (Fig.16) When setting the main switch to ON, absolutely
do not bring your hand close to the binding part or rotat-
ing part of the tip of the tool.
• Do not touch the Tiewire during the tying work (while the
machine is operating).
NOTICE
• Do not switch the main switch ON and OFF in rapid suc-
cession, since this operation will cause machine break-
downs.
1-11 (Fig.17) Mount the Battery pack on the tool's main body
until a click is heard. Turn the Main Switch ON.
1-12 (RB518, RB218) (Fig.37) Tool feeds the wire about 6"
(150 mm) and cuts the wire automatically.Remove the cut
end of the wire with pliers.
1-13 (Fig.18) Set the Trigger lock (Fig.18.8) to the position of
UNLOCK before using the tool.
2. How to remove the Tiewire
• (Fig.6) Set the Main switch (Fig.6.7) at "OFF", the Trigger
lock (Fig.6.8) at "LOCK" and remove the Battery pack
(Fig.6.0).
2-1 (Fig.9) Press the release lever (Fig.9.3), and confirm that
the release lever is caught in the release stopper(Fig.9.2).
2-2 (Fig.19) Remove the Tiewire (Fig.19.c) from the wire guide
(Fig.19.m).
2-3 (Fig.12) Slide the Reel stopper (Fig.12.d) to release the
Reel holder (Fig.12.f) and remove theTiewire (Fig.12.c)
2-4 Mount the new Tiewire. (Refer to the Tiewire mounting
method explanation.)
3. When the Tiewire runs out of binding wire
There should be around 12" (300 mm) of the Tiewire left at end
of the spool. This should be discharged with the old spool and be
replaced with a new one.
4. (RB398S) Tension adjustment
(Fig.20) This dial (Fig.20.5) allows you to adjust wire tension
torque slightly. To increase the tension, turn it in the
counterclockwise. To decrease the tension, turn it in the
clockwise.
4. (RB518) Tension and wrap adjustment
(Fig.38) Torque and wrap dial (fig.38.5) allows you to set 3
wraps / tie or 4 wraps / tie and also you can adjust the torque.
To increase the tension, turn it in the counterclockwise.
To decrease the tension, turn it in the clockwise.
4. (RB218) Wire length adjustment
(Fig.40) The Feed dial (Fig.39.5) is a mechanism to adjust feed
rate of the Tie-Wire. When the edge part (Fig.40.x) length is not
appropriate after binding, use this dial to adjust it.
5. Auto Power-off feature
This tool has "Auto Power-off" feature, which saves the power
consumption of the Li-ion battery when the tool is not operated. If
the tool is not operated for 30 minutes, the tool is automatically
turned off. This is "Auto Poweroff". When the power is turned off
automatically, turn the Main switch OFF, then turn ON the switch
again to operate the tool.
6. For proper tightness
6-1 (Fig.22) Tilt the tool 45° angle to the crossed rebars.
6-2 (Fig.23) Apply the tool perpendicularly to the surface of the
crossed re-bars.
During tool operation
• Do not move the tool during tying operation until the tool
stops tying automatically.
6-3 (Fig.24) Tie in alternate direction.
6-4 (Fig.25) Cross tie.
Bend the tail of the first tie before making the second tie.
6-5 (Fig.26) When you need extra tightness, place rebars
(Fig.26.a) at the top of the Arm part (Fig.26.1).
