#45-2521
Operating Instructions<br />
The IDEAL <strong>Pow</strong>-R-Master Stripmaster ® Wire Stripper is a hand held,<br />
air-powered production tool designed to strip most insulation types in the<br />
10 to 30 AWG range. Standard blades have 3 – 6 stripping holes.<br />
Three types of gripper pad surfaces are available Grit, File, and Parallel<br />
File.<br />
Unpacking - please read<br />
Do not connect to an air supply until all set-up steps have been completed and<br />
checked. Personal injury or damage to the unit may result. The IDEAL <strong>Pow</strong>-R-<br />
Master is packaged without stripping blades. Stripping blades must be<br />
ordered separately according to<br />
the wire specifications.<br />
Set-Up and Calibration<br />
1. Locate the guide plate (34), the blade set (31 )(ordered separately), and<br />
the blade retaining screws (29).<br />
2. Place the movable and stationary blade halves (31) on the frame. Make<br />
sure the link (23) is secured around the leg of the moveable blade half.<br />
3. Place the guide plate (34) on top of the blade set (31).<br />
4. Install the blade retaining screws (29), but do not tighten.<br />
5. Connect the unit to an air source (80 to 125 PSI operating pressure)<br />
using the Hose bard (11) port located on the end of the unit.<br />
WARNING: Never connect an air source with pressure in<br />
excess of 150 PSI. Personal injury or damage to the unit may result.<br />
6. Actuate the unit by pressing down the lever (4). Leave the lever<br />
(4) in the depressed position. Tighten the blade retaining screws<br />
(29) to 6 to 8 inch pounds.<br />
7. Release the lever (4).<br />
8. The unit is ready for operation.<br />

Proper use of the Tool<br />
WARNING: To avoid personal injury, keep fingers away for the gripper<br />
pads and blades during operation.<br />
1. Hold the stripper in the right hand while holding the wire to be stripped in<br />
the left hand.<br />
2. Place the wire in the proper stripping hole making sure to keep fingers<br />
clear of the gripper pads.<br />
3. Press the Lever down to strip the wire.<br />
4. Release the Lever and simultaneously withdraw the wire away from the<br />
gripper pad to prevent smashing the wire.<br />
5. Insert the next wire for stripping<br />
Maintenance<br />
The IDEAL <strong>Pow</strong>-R-Master Stripmaster ® Wire Stripper is designed to provide<br />
thousands of strips with minimal maintenance. To preserve peak operating<br />
efficiency, occasionally:<br />
1. Clean any debris from the blade mating surfaces and the gripper pads.<br />
2. Occasionally lubricate the lever, link and sprocket (23), the piston rod (5),<br />
the piston rod pin (19), and the chain (22) with a thick grease. IDEAL<br />
Cylinder Lubricant (Part #1181.019) is recommended.<br />
Valve Spool Seal Replacement<br />
Warning: Make sure the air supply is disconnected before servicing.<br />
1. Remove the actuation lever pin (2), the screw (8), and the lever (4).<br />
2. Remove the Retainer (9).<br />
3. Remove the valve spool (12).<br />
