Detailed Feature Overview
GE IC660BLM507 removes Genius blocks quickly without prying or rocking motions. The double-lever mechanism multiplies your pulling force by five times. This design extracts even tightly seated blocks with minimal effort. Glass-filled nylon construction resists breakage in industrial environments.
Steel pivot pins provide long-term durability for repeated use. The ribbed rubber grip prevents slipping even with oily hands. You can use this tool on any Genius block or Series 90-30 module. The tool engages both locking tabs simultaneously for even extraction. Consequently, the block comes out straight without bending connector pins.
How to Use the Puller Tool
Position the tool over the block’s top and bottom edges first. Squeeze the orange handles firmly to engage the locking tabs. Pull straight outward while maintaining even pressure on both handles. The block releases from the DIN rail within seconds. Repeat the same process for block reinstallation or removal.
Storage and Maintenance
The integrated hanging hole mounts on a cabinet pegboard or hook. Keep the tool within reach of your Genius racks for convenience. Clean the rubber grip with isopropyl alcohol when needed. Inspect the steel pivot pins annually for wear or corrosion. Store the tool between -20°C and 70°C when not in use. The tool contains no electrical components or energy storage devices.
