5) Battery tool use and care
Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. a. A
charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
Use power tools only when specifically designated battery packs. b. Use
of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, c.
like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; d.
avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only a.
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
If it becomes necessary to have the power supply cord replaced, b.
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an official service
organization so as to avoid safety risks.

4. Device description and basic mode of operation
4.1 Basic mode of operation
The Pressing Tool operates electro-hydraulically. The hydraulic pump is
driven by means of an electric motor. The hydraulic fluid pressure acts on the
drive piston at one side, and the press rolls (5) are attached to the piston rod
of this piston. The press rolls produce the pressing action as the result of the
force being diverted via the cams of the press jaw (7).
4.2 Electronic monitoring and LED indicators
The Pressing Tool is monitored electronically in order to protect against
tampering and in order to ensure perfect pressing results. The status of any
malfunctions are indicated by light-emitting diodes (LEDs)(2).
The following are monitored:
• Retaining pin
• Pressing time
• Voltage/rechargeable battery capacity
• Servicing interval
• Operating temperature
Status indications after switching on the Pressing Tool
Connect the Pressing Tool to the mains X
Slide the rechargeable battery into the Pressing Tool X
Press the „ON-OFF“ switch (1). X
The LED (2) indicator lights while the „ON-OFF“ switch is pressed in order to
check the function of the three LEDs.
„ON-OFF“ switch
The machine can be switched on and off at any time with the „ON-OFF“
switch (except during a crimp cycle).
If the machine is not used while it is in ON state, the electronic circuitry
switches the machine to OFF state after 10 minutes.
