4.8 Operating SMART-FORCE appliances
To start the battery-operated appliance, press the on/off switch. The workspace lighting LEDs
switch on and the four control LEDs on the control panel briefly light up green; this is a control
function. The motor begins to idle. In this state, if the appliance is not operated using the rocker
switch on the control handle, the drive switches off automatically after 30 seconds and must
then be restarted. However, the data connection remains active for a further 2 minutes and
only switches off completely once this time has elapsed.
Pressing the rocker switch on the control handle harder or less hard adjusts the movement
speed exactly. The maximum cutting, expansion or pushing force is only obtained by fully
depressing and holding the rocker switch.
Closing the cutter / Opening the spreaders / Extending the rescue ram
The main direction of appliance movement is triggered by pressing the rocker switch to the left
with your index finger (grooved side of the rocker switch).
Opening the cutter / Closing the spreaders / Retracting the rescue ram
The opposite direction is triggered by pressing the control rocker to the right with your thumb
(curved side of the rocker switch).
Dead man's circuit
When the rocker switch is released, it returns to the zero position automatically. This always
brings the tool to a stop in any situation, including under load. The motor switches off
automatically after 30 seconds.
