In most cases, maxiGRIP assemblies can be installed by hand, but specialized tools are available to aid in the process. ATS’ MGT series of maxiGRIP installation tools feature a base plate, pick-and-place knob and spring clip tool. The base plate is used to hold the frame clip in place while the pick-and-place knob is used to grab and spread open the four walls of the clip in order to place it over the component. The spring clip tool is used to push the spring clip securely onto the assembly. Both also aid in the removal of the frame and spring clips.
