INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. The basic setup is as shown on the

right.

• Each yoke has safety lips to

prevent slippage and is angled

to fit the pitch of the spring to

achieve maximum surface

contact between the yokes

and the spring,

2. The yokes are adjusted by rotating

the Hex nut (C).

• Do not use air tools to tighten or

loosen the Hex nut (C)

3. Ensure the yokes and the column

of the compressor are correctly

aligned at all times during

compression.

• Do not allow the spring to

touch the column of the

compressor, use extension

blocks if required see next

section.

WARNING: DO NOT COMPRESS THE SPRING TO AN EXTENT WHERE THE

COIL WINDINGS (A) OR JAWS TOUCH (B).

CONICAL/WIDE BODIED SPRINGS

4. For conical springs, the centre axis

of the spring should always stay

parallel to the compressor

column.

• You may need to use different

sized yokes for the top and

bottom of the spring.

5. If necessary, use the extension

block(s) as shown to keep the

spring and compressor body

parallel.

The extension blocks can be fitted in various ways.

TO COMPRESS A SPRING REMOVED FROM A VEHICLE.

1. Measure the outside diameter of the spring to be compressed and select

the correct set of jaws to fit the spring.

2. Mount the selected jaws on the compressor body, using the retaining bolts

and tighten securely.

3. Rotate the hexagonal nut, to drive the jaws apart to the length of the

spring and to allow compression of as many windings as possible.

4. Place the spring compressor onto the spring, ensuring the spring seats

correctly between the safety lips and the outer ribs and cannot slide out

during compression.

5. Ensure the jaws and body are correctly aligned.

6. Rotate the hexagonal nut and compress the spring.

7. Secure the spring with a spring clamp or other suitable device.

TO DECOMPRESS A SPRING REMOVED FROM A VEHICLE.

1. To decompress the spring, reverse the compress procedure.

• Make sure you release the tension slowly to reduce the risk of the

spring slipping/flying out.

MAINTAINING THE SPRING COMPRESSOR

• Before each use check the compressor to ensure it is not damaged

or worn.

• If suspect, do not use the unit, but contact your local Clarke Dealer

who will be able to advise you regarding repair and spare parts.

• Grease the compressor spindle as necessary to inhibit corrosion.

• Keep the compressor clean, and when not in use, store in a safe,

dry, location.

WARNING: DO NOT COMPRESS THE SPRING TO AN EXTENT WHERE THE

COIL WINDINGS OR JAWS TOUCH.

WARNING: DO NOT USED AIR TOOLS.
