4. Setup and Assembly

1. Identify the Component: Determine the type and size of the component to be extracted (e.g., bearing, bushing).
2. Select Appropriate Extractor: Choose the correct size and type of extractor jaws from the kit that fit securely into or around the component. The kit supports diameters from 8 mm to 58 mm.
3. Assemble the Extractor: Attach the selected jaws to the slide hammer or the two-jaw puller mechanism, ensuring all connections are tight and secure.
4. Inspect Assembly: Before use, double-check that all parts are correctly assembled and free from defects.

5. Operating Instructions

1. Position the Extractor: Carefully insert the extractor jaws into or around the component to be removed. Ensure a firm and even grip.
2. Engage the Mechanism:
   • For Slide Hammer: Once the jaws are securely engaged, use the slide hammer by pulling the weight sharply towards the handle. This action generates an impact force to pull the component out. Repeat as necessary.
   • For Two-Jaw Puller: Position the jaws around the component. Turn the central screw clockwise to apply pressure and pull the component. Ensure even pressure is applied.
3. Monitor Progress: Observe the component's movement. If it resists, re-evaluate the setup or consider applying penetrating oil if appropriate.
4. Remove Component: Once the component is loose, carefully remove it and the extractor tool.
5. Disassemble and Clean: After use, disassemble the extractor, clean all components, and prepare for storage.

Important: Never force the tool. If the component does not move, reassess the situation. Applying excessive force can damage the component, the tool, or cause injury.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: After each use, clean all components of the extractor kit to remove dirt, grease, and debris. Use a clean cloth and a suitable degreaser if necessary.
• Lubrication: Lightly lubricate threaded parts and moving joints with a general-purpose machine oil to prevent corrosion and ensure smooth operation.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect all components for signs of wear, cracks, bends, or other damage. Pay close attention to the jaws, threads, and the slide hammer mechanism.
• Storage: Store the entire kit in its original case in a dry, cool, and secure location, away from direct sunlight and moisture. This protects the tools and keeps them organized.

7. Troubleshooting

• Component not moving:
  • Ensure the correct size extractor is used and properly engaged.
  • Apply penetrating oil to the component and allow it to soak.
  • Check for any obstructions preventing removal.
• Extractor slipping:
  • Verify that the jaws are fully engaged and gripping the component securely.
  • Clean any grease or oil from the gripping surfaces of the jaws and the component.
• Tool damage:
  • Discontinue use immediately.
  • Do not attempt to repair damaged components; replace them with genuine YATO parts.
