Troubleshooting
Boot does not stretch enough to fit over the joint
Ensure you are using an air-operated installation tool. Verify the joint diameter is within the 56-116mm range. Check for any obstructions on the joint or shaft.
Clips do not hold the boot securely
Ensure the correct size clips are used and they are properly crimped. Double-check that the boot is seated correctly on the shaft and at the joint.
Tearing during installation
Lubricate the joint sufficiently. Use caution and appropriate tools to avoid snagging or overstretching the neoprene material.
