WARNING
Do not use the tool for purposes other than those intended by Cembre.
The operator should concentrate on the work being performed and be careful to maintain
a balanced working position.
The tool is provided with additional external coatings to protect the operator and tool
against accidental brush contact with energised conductors.
Proper training techniques and practices should always be adhered to when working around
energised conductors.
Always consult your company’s work rules and methods to select suitable tooling, rubber
insulated gloves, shrouding and other protective equipment.
Under no circumstances should operatives rely solely on the insulating properties of the
tools alone when working around energised conductors.
Prior to use please ensure the tool and specifically the insulating protection are not
damaged.
The tool is unsuitable for continuous use and should be allowed to cool down following
uninterrupted, successive crimping operations; for instance, having exhausted a fully
charged battery in one session, delay battery replacement for a few minutes.
Protect the tool from rain and moisture. Water will damage the tool and battery.
Electro-hydraulic tools should not be operated in pouring rain.
