Q. How is the reach of the POSI LOCK™ puller determined? A. The reach of the puller is determined by measuring from the bottom of the jaw head assembly to the pulling surface of the jaw tips.
Q. How do I figure out which POSI LOCK™ puller I have?

A. To figure out which puller you have, you will need to have 1 of 3 measurements:

        -Overall length of the center bolt

        -Overall length of the jaw

        -Height of the cage

With one of these three measurements you will be able to determine which puller you have by calling Posi Lock™ Puller, Inc.

 

Q. How do I determine which POSI LOCK™ puller I need?

A.

For Manual Pullers:

You will need to know the reach and spread of the object you need to remove. A general rule of thumb is the center bolt diameter of the puller should be at least ½ the diameter of the shaft in which the object is being removed.

For Hydraulic Pullers:

You will need to know the reach and spread of the object you need to remove. You will also need to have the diameter of the shaft in inches on which the object to be removed. The tons required is then figured in as 7 to 10 times the diameter of the shaft.

ie, A 1" shaft will require approximately 7 to 10 tons of force to remove the object.

Q. Can I use an impact wrench on the POSI LOCK™ puller? A. Pullers, in general, are not impact approved. If you must use an impact wrench, make sure to use tip protectors, lubricate the center bolt with a high pressure gear grease and watch your torque levels. Use of an impact wrench will void your POSI LOCK™ warranty.
