Istruzioni di installazione e funzionamento
The Tiger Tool 10105 U-Joint Puller is designed for straightforward operation. Follow these steps for effective U-joint removal:
- Prepare the Driveshaft: Ensure the driveshaft is accessible and securely positioned. If working on a vehicle, ensure it is safely lifted and supported.
- Position the Puller: Place the U-Joint Puller over the U-joint, ensuring that the tool's jaws are securely seated around the bearing cups. The threaded screw should align with the center of the U-joint cross.
- Applicare pressione: Use a wrench or impact gun on the threaded screw to apply pressure. As you tighten the screw, the puller will press the U-joint bearing cup out of the yoke.
- Remove Bearing Cup: Continue tightening until the bearing cup is fully pressed out. The tool's design ensures that the driveshaft, yokes, and other components are not damaged during this process.
- Repeat for Remaining Cups: Reposition the tool as needed to remove the remaining bearing cups.
- Disassemble U-Joint: Once all bearing cups are removed, the U-joint cross can be easily separated from the driveshaft yoke.

Risoluzione dei problemi
| Problema | Possibile causa | Soluzione |
|---|---|---|
| Tool not pressing U-joint cup | Incorrect positioning; severely seized U-joint; insufficient force. | Ensure tool is correctly seated and aligned. For severely seized U-joints, apply penetrating oil and allow time to work. Use an appropriate impact wrench for sufficient torque. |
| Tool slipping | Improper seating on bearing cups; excessive grease/oil on contact surfaces. | Re-position the tool to ensure a firm grip. Clean contact surfaces if oily or greasy. |
| Difficulty turning threaded screw | Lack of lubrication; damaged threads; U-joint too tight. | Lubricate the threaded screw. Inspect threads for damage; if damaged, the tool may need replacement. Ensure the U-joint is within the tool's specified capacity. |
| Damage to driveshaft/yoke | Misalignment; using on incompatible U-joints (e.g., Double Cardan); severely seized cups. | Always ensure proper alignment. Do not use on Double Cardan joints. For extremely seized cups, consider professional assistance or alternative methods if damage is a concern. |
