Operating Instructions for Tube Expander

1. Tube Expansion
1.1 Deburr and anneal copper tube (Note1: Soft tube doesn’t need to be annealed)

1.2 Insert copper tube onto expander head, press start button to operate. The expander stops automatically after the expansion is completed.

(If you accidentally press the start button during operation, the expander will stop working, press the start button again to restore tube expansion operation) (Note2: if the start button is pressed but expander doesn’t respond, manually release pressure by pushing the pressure release button and then press the start button again)

2. Pressure Relief
2.1. Automatic pressure relief
Expansion pressure will be relieved automatically after the tube expansion process is completed.
2.2. Manual pressure relief
the push button is to be used only when the expander is running abnormally (the pressure relief button is shown in the figure below). When pressure relief is needed, push this button in the direction of the arrow to release pressure.

3. Illumination
3.1 Click the light button to turn on the light.

4. Charge
4.1 Press tabs on both sides of the battery to remove it.

4.2 Make sure the battery pack is connected properly.

4.3 Place back the battery pack.

5. 011 Change
To ensure the excellent performance of the expander, replace hydraulic oil every 1 year or every 6000 expansions.
5.1 How to change oil:

1. Put cone sleeve on the oil bottle cone, and then the 0-ring.
2. Unscrew the small screw of oil change cover and remove it.
3. Use a flat head screwdriver to unscrew the refueling plug (clean up dust near the refueling hole to prevent dust from falling into).
4. Turn expander upside down, press the exhaust pressure plate, drain the old oil from the expander, turn expander over, lay expander flat. (Dispose of used oil properly).
5. Press the exhaust pressure plate while inserting the oil bottle into the refueling hole.
6. Loosen the exhaust pressure plate. After the exhaust pressure plate returns to its original position, press it repeatedly until no more bubbles get in the oil bottle.
7. Pull away the oil bottle, put back the refueling plug screw, screw the oil change cover back on the expander.

Lubrication

Add an appropriate amount of grease to the cone hole of the expander head regularly to avoid the expander head from being stuck or unable to reset during the expansion process due to poor lubrication.

CAUTION

1. Put the expander back into its box after work to prevent water and dust from entering the expander.
2. If the expander is used continuously for a long time, it may trigger temperature protection, the indicator will flash 5 times. Wait until the expander cools down for a while, after the temperature drop back, you can use it again.
3. The expander will power ott automatically if no activity for 20 seconds.
4. Use the dedicated oil bottle and hydraulic oil for oil change/refill to avoid damage to the expander.
5. This expander is designed for soft copper tubes. If the hard copper tube is used, the tube must be annealed before the operation, otherwise, the tube will not expand or will split. The hard copper tube that is not annealed will damage the tools and invalidate the warranty.
6. If an abnormal shutdown occurs during operation, please follow the below procedures:
   a.Push the manual pressure release button to release the pressure;
   b. Remove and re-plug battery pack;
   c. Start expander again to see if the problem is solved; d.lf problem is not solved, please contact NAVAC Technical Support.
