Press the pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini together with your hand so that
they can be removed from the pressfi tting together with the drive unit. Press
the adapter tongs, adapter tongs Mini together with your hand so that they can
be removed from the pressing ring together with the drive unit. Open the pressing
ring by hand so that it can be pulled off the pressfi tting.
3.1.2. Operating safety
On REMS Power-Press SE the pressing process is ended by releasing the
safety inching switch (8). A torque-dependent safety slip clutch acts in both end
positions of the press rollers for the mechanical safety of the drive unit. Do not
needlessly stress the safety slip clutch! REMS Power-Press SE is also equipped
with an electronic safety circuit which switches off the drive unit at high load.
As long as the pressing jaws (10), pressing rings (20) and pressing segments
(21) at "A" and "B" (Fig. 1, and Fig. 17 to 21) closed, this is not critical. However,
if the drive unit already switches off before pressing is complete (pressing jaws,
pressing rings and pressing segments at "A" and "B" not closed), work may not
be continued and the drive unit must be checked/repaired immediately by an
authorised REMS contract customer service workshop.
The REMS Power-Press and REMS Akku-Press ends the pressing opera tion
automatically, emitting an acoustic signal (clicking).
The REMS Mini- Press ACC, REMS Mini- Press ACC 22 V,
REMS Mini- Press ACC, REMS Mini- Press ACC 22 V, REMS Mini-Press S
22 V ACC, REMS Akku-Press ACC, REMS Power-Press ACC and REMS
22 V ACC,
REMS Akku-Press ACC, REMS Power-Press ACC and REMS
Power-Press XL ACC ends the pressing operation automatically, emitting an
acoustic signal (clicking), and returns automatically (forced movement).
NOTICE
A perfect pressing is only produced with full closure of the pressing tongs,
pressing tongs Mini, pressing ring or pressing segment. Full closure of
the pressing jaws (10), pressing rings (20) or pressing segment (21) both
at their tips (Fig. 1 and Fig. 17 to 21 at "A") and on the opposite side (Fig.
1 and Fig. 17 to 21 at "B") can be observed after completing the pressing.
If a visible burr is created on the pressing sleeve when closing the pressing
tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing ring or pressing segment, the pressing
may be faulty or leaking (see 5. Trouble).
3.1.3. Working safety
To ensure safe working, the drive units are equipped with a safety inching switch
(8). This permits immediate switching off of the drive units at any time, particu-
larly if a potential hazard arises. The drive units can be switched to the return
function in any position.
3.2. Axial presses (Figs. 12, 13)
Note the different working range of the axial presses. The respectively latest
REMS sales literature applies, see also www.rems.de → Downloads → Product
Catalogues, Brochures. Make sure that the pressing heads (14) are inserted
into the drive unit in such a way that the pressing can be made in one stroke
if possible. This is not possible in some cases and pre-pressing and fi nish
pressing is necessary. For this, one pressing head or both pressing heads must
be inserted turned 180° before the second pressing process so that they are
closer together.
3.2.1. REMS Ax-Press 30 22 V(Fig. 13)

Place the preassembled compression sleeve fi tting inside the pressing heads
(14). Hold the drive unit by the housing grip (6) and the pistol grip (9), and keep
the safety inching switch (8) pressed until the compression sleeve is in contact
with the collar of the compression sleeve fi tting. This is also indicated by an
acoustic signal (clicking). Press the reset button (13) until the pressing heads
(14) are fully retracted. REMS Ax-Press 30: Upon completion of the pressing,
the drive unit switches over automatically to return (forced switch-off). This is
indicated by an acoustic signal (click). REMS Ax-Press 40: Hold the reset button
(13) until the pressing heads (14) have moved back completely.
If there is a noticeable gap between the compression sleeve and the collar of
the compression sleeve connector after closing the compression heads, the
pressing may be faulty or leaking (see 5. Faults). Read and observe the instal-
lation and assembly instructions of the manufacturer/supplier of the pressing
sleeve system to be pressed.

3.2.2. REMS Ax-Press 25 22 V ACC, REMS Ax-Press 25 L 22 V ACC (Fig. 12)
Insert the pre-assembled pressing sleeve fi tting into the pressing heads (14).
On the REMS Ax-Press 25 L ACC the closer distance of the pressing heads
may have to be achieved by moving the outer pressing head into the centre
pressing head position. Hold the drive machine either with one hand on the
switch handle (9) or two hands on the housing handle (6) and the switch handle
(9). Keep the safety inching switch (8) pressed until the compression sleeve is
touching the collar of the compression sleeve connector. The drive machine
then switches automatically to return (forced return).
If there is a noticeable gap between the compression sleeve and the collar of
the compression sleeve connector after closing the compression heads, the
pressing may be faulty or leaking (see 5. Faults). Read and observe the instal-
lation and assembly instructions of the manufacturer/supplier of the pressing
sleeve system to be pressed.

unit against the pipe. Switch on the drive unit (8). When the expanding head
is opened, the drive unit switches automatically to return and the expanding
head is closed again. Keep holding the safety inching switch (8) down in the
REMS Akku-Ex-Press 22 V ACC and push the expanding head/drive unit further.
Turn the pipe slightly. Keep repeating the expansion process until the expanding
jaws (17) are slid all the way into the pipe. On REMS Power-Ex-Press P-CEF
ACC, release the safety inching switch (8) after every expanding process, wait
until the expanding mandrel has moved back completely, turn the pipe, then
press the safety inching switch (8) again. Repeat the expanding process until
the expanding jaws (17) are pushed into the pipe up to the stop. Read and

3.4. Machine status check with fl at battery protection
All REMS cordless presses are available as of 2011-01-01 with an electronic
machine status check with charging state display (23) by a 2-coloured green/
red LED. The LED lights green when the battery is fully or still suffi ciently
charged. The LED lights red when the battery must be charged. If this condition
occurs during pressing and the pressing process is not fi nished, the pressing
must be completed with a fully charged Li-Ion battery. If the drive unit is not
used, the LED goes out after approx. 2 hours but comes on again when the
drive unit is switched back on.
3.5. Graduated charging level indicator (26) of the Li-Ion 21.6 V battery
The graduated charging level indicator shows the charging level of the battery
with 4 LEDs. At least one LED lights for a few seconds after pressing the key
with the battery symbol. The more LEDs that light green, the higher the charging
level of the battery. If a LED fl ashes red, the battery must be recharged.
3.6. Pressure monitoring, REMS Akku-Press 22 V ACC (Fig. 4)
The pressure is monitored during pressing in the REMS Akku-Press 22 V
ACC. Upon completion of the pressing process, the pressure indicator LED
(28) lights white if the pressure is within the specifi cation. If this lights red, the
pressure was less than specifi ed. If it lights red and the drive unit is switched
off, the pressure was greater than specifi ed. Hold the reset button (13) until
the pressing rollers have moved back completely. If the pressure was out of
specifi cation, a new pressing process can be started and the pressure indicator
LED then lights white again during the pressing process. After a dwell time of
approx. 2 minutes, the LED goes out but lights up again when the drive unit is
switched back on. If the pressure indicator LED lights red, it is recommended to
have the drive unit checked/repaired by an authorised REMS customer service
workshop.
NOTICE
If the pressure is within the specifi cation and the pressure indicator LED (28)
lights white, it cannot always be assumed that the pressing tongs, the pressing
ring and the pressing segments were closed at the end of the pressing process.
Full closing must be checked for every pressing process.
