INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Ensure the spring is installed on the shaft.
Step 2: Screw the tip into the shaft about half-way. Use purple vibraTITE 111 on the threads. This will prevent the tip from backing out of the shaft, which can cause problems. Use a 3/16" wrench to hold the flats of the shaft and snug the pin into place. Vice it with rubber grips to prevent scarring of the shaft. Do not overtighten the tip into the shaft – just snug it. The vibraTITE will do the rest.
Step 3: Drop the shaft and tip into the die body and screw on the top cap of the die. You will feel the spring tension start. Turn the top down and leave a gap about the thickness of a dime. Leaving this gap will ensure the spring will work properly.
Step 4: Turn the die down into the tool head down far enough so that the lower threads on the die are below the bottom of the tool head.
Step 5: Install the bottom case holder cap (collet).
Step 6: Lower the die over a case. Lock the die down. All set to go!
