EMERGENCY STOP Button
(B-1)
If there is any danger to personnel or the machine during the pressing process, press the
EMERGENCY STOP button immediately and release the ON switch. The valve will open and
the piston will return to its initial position.
3.3
LED
(B-2)
The LED can indicate the following:
Flashes red:
Battery is flat. The current press process will be ended automatically. The ON but-
ton will then be disabled and a new cycle can only be started once the battery has been
charged.
Lights up red:
After 10.000 press cycles the LED lights up red after each moulding cycle to in-
dicate that the next inspection is due. An internal counter keeps a record of the number of press-
ing since leaving the factory.
3.4
To switch on
(B-3)
Press the ON button until the pressing process has been completed. The motor cut out indicates
the end of the moulding cycle.
3.5
To insert the press jaw
(C)
Remove battery!
Open the bolt (1).
Insert the appropriate press jaw for the job in hand (2).
Lock the bolt (3).
After changing the press jaw it is essential to ensure that, once engaged, the crimping jaw
matches the profile being moulded and the nominal width of the fitting being moulded. A visual
inspection must be carried out in order to determine that the press jaw is fully closed at the end
of the press cycle.
3.6
To turn the press jaw
(D)
The press jaw can be turned through 270° depending on the application.
3.7
Operation
(E)
Use only system-compatible press fittings and press jaws designed for them. The nominal size
of the press jaw must be identical with the nominal size of the press fitting.
When inserting the pipe / press fitting system, there is a risk of crush injuries for the
fingers or other body parts near the press jaw!
Push the press fitting on to the pipe (1). Pull the press jaw apart and insert the pipe with the
press fitting at right angles.
There must be no foreign bodies between the press contour and the fitting. If you fail to
ensure this, the pressing process will not produce a perfect joint!
Press and hold the ON button until the moulding cycle is finished (2). The motor cut out indi-
cates the end of the moulding cycle.
Push the press jaw apart and take the machine off the joint (3).
Do not start the machine while the piston retracts or the emergency shutdown is pressed!

Battery / Charger
(F)
Power connection:
Connect only to single-phase a.c. current and only to the system voltage indicated on the rating
plate. It is also possible to connect to sockets without ground, as the design conforms to safety
class II.
Charging the battery:
ATTENTION! Overvoltage can damage or destroy the batteries and charger.
Always observe correct voltage!
