The rail punch is intended for burr-free shortening and punching of the mounting rail (model 8401).
No other objects may be cut or punched using the rail punch.
The following tools are required for mounting the spare parts:
fork or ring spanner: 13 mm / 17 mm
Allen key: 3 mm / 5 mm
Fasten the punch to a level surface or extend the footprint using two 1-inch pipes.
Lubricate the eccentric bearings and the punching blades with a drop of oil after 500 cuts.
The rail guide can shift during transportation, resulting in the rail being unable to pass through the opening. Before operating the rail punch, use the two screws to realign the guide so that it is straight.
Observe the measuring aid. The distance from the marking to the cutting point is 100 mm.
Open the lever.
Push the rail into the guide and set to the desired length.
Return the lever to the original position and shorten the rail.
Open the lever.
Push the rail so far into the guide that the position to be punched is in the punch.

Viega recommends replacement after 25,000 cuts or 25,000 hole punches.
