4.3. Description of the light diode display
This tool is equipped with a special circuit board incorporating several important features to
inform the user about the current status of the unit. The diode (Pos.-No. 6) signals in the
following cases:

5. Remarks in respect of the determined use
Before starting any work on electrical appliances it must be safeguarded that there are no
live parts in the immediate assembly area of the user. Is this not possible special precaution
measures

for working near live parts must be provided.
5.1. Operation of the units
First the cutting head (Pos.-No.4) has to be opened by unhooking the flap lock (Pos.-No. 3
& Picture 2 Pos. B). The connector or cable will now be positioned into the open cutting
head, which will be closed afterwards.
The cutting procedure is initiated by actuating the trigger (Pos.-No.1 & Picture 2 Pos. C).
The moveable blade (Pos.-No. 10b) which is positioned on the piston approaches the
cable/conductor and presses it against the flap blade (Pos.-No. 10a) before the actual cut
starts.
The cutting process is terminated when the blades completely overlap each other. After
pressing the retract button (Pos.-No. 2) the blades return into their initial position (see
Picture 2 Pos. B). Afterwards a second cutting process can be initiated.
Attention
The cutting process can be interrupted at any moment by releasing the trigger
(Pos.-No. 1).

Remarks:
- Does the diode signal periodically at the end of a working cycle for approx. 20 sec the unit must be returned to an
authorised Service Center for Service as soon as possible.
- In case of an error the light diode display also signals periodically at the end of a working cycle. The signal
indicates in this case the circuit opening by the electronic fuse. A possible reason for that is that a cycle was
performed with an incorrectly low battery. If the signal occurs even after changing the battery there must be a
different error or a service is due. In these cases the tool must be returned to the manufacturer or an authorised
service center.

The unit switches off when it gets too hot. It switches on automatically after the unit cooled off.
