trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c)
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the
power tool before making any adjustments, chang-
ing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d)
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the
power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
e)
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f)
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for operations differ-
ent from those intended could result in a hazardous sit-
uation.
g) K
eep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5 Service
a)
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This
will ensure that the safety of the electric tool is main-
tained.
2.6 Specific Safety Instructions For
Power Tools
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to mains-oper-
ated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool
a) Do not exceed a total tool cable length of 45 m.
Exception:
-
30 m when used with an mPro400GCD-S(H)-STO.
-
30 m when used with 70 series tools.
b) Our insulation is not insulation in the sense of VDE
standards: Hold the device at the insulated handle sur-
faces when you perform work where the screw can
strike hidden power lines or your own power cable.
Contact between the screw and a live power line could
energize metal parts of the tool and cause an electric
shock.
c) Hold the tool firmly. Be prepared for torque reaction.
d) Reaction bars are recommended in applications with
limited space and when using:
-
Inline tools used above 4 Nm.
-
Pistol tools used above 10 Nm.
-
Angle tools used above 60 Nm.
e) NEVER rest your hand on the reaction bar when work-
ing.
f)
Check that the suspension bail is properly secured to
the balancer.
Personal Protective Equipment
Risk of injury by being wound up in and caught by machin-
ery
a) When working with rotating parts, it is not permitted to
wear gloves. Recommendation: Freely rotating
u-
GUARD
protected fastening tools from APEX.
b) Wear a hair net, if necessary.
Power Tool Use And Care
a) Only use bits or sockets designed for industrial use
with machine-controlled tools.
b) Make sure that the bit or socket is securely inserted.
c) Do not attach the bit or socket to the screw head at an
angle.
d) Inspect the bit or socket for visible damage and cracks.
Replace damaged screw bits immediately.
e) Cordless EC tools: Do not open the battery pack.
2.7 System Relevant Safety
Instructions
Follow national, state and local safety and connection stan-
dards during installation. The standards take precedence
over the information in this section.
Do not make any modifications to the controller, pro-
tective devices, or accessories without prior written
authorization from Apex Tool Group.
Do not attempt to open the controller or components of
the controller for troubleshooting or other work on the
device. In the event of a fault, any intervention can
result in serious injury from electric shock.
Operation with the device open may also cause the fol-
lowing:
-
An increased amount of emissions: may produce
interference with other devices.
-
Reduced immunity from interference: may produce
faulty results.
-
Loss of remaining warranty period.
Risk Of Injury Due To Electric Shock
The controller and tool can conduct current in the event of
a fault. An electric shock can lead to cardiac arrest, cessa-
tion of breathing, burns, and serious or fatal injuries.
Always turn off the controller before connecting power
and tool cables, cleaning or removal from operation.
Do not operate the tightening system if the housing,
cable or tool are damaged.
Installation
Use an approved hoist to raise controller to desired
installation location.
Ensure the controller is rigidly mounted and secured
(see Quick Installation Guide).
Organize cables and lines to avoid damage and trip-
ping hazards.
Observe the permitted cable bending radius.
Do not exceed total length of Tool Cable
