FAQs
What is the main purpose of the Power-TEC Lateral Tension Puller?
Its main purpose is to provide controlled tension for pulling dents on vehicle body panels, particularly when used with compatible glue pulling systems.
Can I use this puller with other brands of glue puller tabs?
While the puller is designed for Power-TEC pads, some universal glue puller tabs might be adaptable, but optimal compatibility and performance are guaranteed with Power-TEC products.
How do I switch between inward and outward pulling?
The puller arms are equipped with a quick-change system that allows them to be reversed to facilitate either inward or outward pulling configurations.
What accessories are recommended for use with this puller?
It is recommended to use with Power-TEC Lateral Tension Glue Puller Pads (92736), Gluematic Glue Gun (91237), glue sticks (92342), and optionally, Multi-Angle Pull Mounts (92737).
What is the difference between the 450mm and other available sizes?
The 450mm is the mid-size option. Shorter (250mm, Part No. 92733) and longer (900mm, Part No. 92735) versions are available to suit different panel sizes and repair requirements.
How much tension can this puller apply?
The tension is controlled by the user via the screw adjuster knob and potentially a ratchet. The aluminum construction is robust, but specific force limits are not provided; apply tension gradually and carefully.
Troubleshooting
Puller arms do not attach securely.
Verify that the quick-change system is properly engaged and that no debris is obstructing the connection points.
Screw adjuster is stiff or difficult to turn.
Clean the threads of the screw adjuster and apply a small amount of lubricant if necessary. Ensure the bridge is not under excessive, uneven load.
Inconsistent pulling force.
Check the adhesion of the glue puller pad to the panel. Ensure the puller arms are evenly positioned and applying balanced tension.
Ratchet does not fit the 3/8" drive.
Confirm you are using a standard 3/8" drive ratchet. Ensure the drive socket on the adjuster knob is clear of debris.
