Safety Instructions For Batteries - REMS Power-Press SE Instrucciones De Servicio

eng
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust coll­
ection can reduce dust­related hazards.
h) Do not take your safety for granted and ignore the safety rules for power
tools even if you are very familiar with the power tool after frequent use.
Careless handling can lead to severe injury within split seconds.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive 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. 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) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) 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 different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and gripping surfaces prevent safe handling and control of the
power tool in unforeseeable situations.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger
that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that
can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a damaged or modified battery. Damaged or modified batteries
can behave unexpectedly and lead to fires, explosions or injuries.
f) Do not expose a battery for fire or high temperatures. Fire or temperatures
above 130 °C (265 °F) can cause an explosion.
g) Follow all the instructions for charging and never charge the battery or the
cordless tool outside the temperature range specified in the operating
instructions. Incorrect charging or charging outside the permitted temperature
range can destroy the battery and increase the fire risk.
6) 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 power tool
is maintained.
b) Never service damaged batteries. All maintenance of batteries should only be
carried out by the manufacturer or authorised customer service points.
Safety instructions for presses
WARNING
Read all the safety notes, instructions, illustrations and technical data which
come with this power tool. Failure to heed the following instructions can lead to
electric shock, fire and/or severe injuries.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
● Hold the power tool firmly by the housing grip (6) and pistol grip (9) and
make sure you are standing firmly when working. The power tool produces
a very high pressing force. It is safer to hold the tool with both hands. Therefore
be very careful. Keep children and bystanders away while operating the power tool.
● Do not reach into moving parts in the pressing area/expanding area. There
is a risk of injury by crushing fingers or hands.
● Never operate radial presses with the tongs retaining bolt unlocked (2).
There is a risk of fracture and flying parts can cause serious injuries.
● Always position the radial press with pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs,
pressing ring with adapter tongs on the press fitting at a right angle to the
pipe axis. If the radial press is positioned askew to the pipe axis, its high drive
force will pull it to a right angle to the pipe axis. This could crush hands or other
parts of the body and/or there is a risk of fracture whereby flying parts can cause
serious injuries.
● Do not start radial presses without pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs or
pressing ring with adapter tongs. Do not start the pressing process except to
make a press joint. Unless counter pressure is applied by the press fitting, the
drive unit, pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs, pressing ring and adapter tongs
will be needlessly stressed.
● Before using pressing tongs, pressing rings with adapter tongs (pressing
jaws, pressing slings with adapter jaws) from other manufacturers, check
whether these are suitable for the REMS radial presses. Pressing tongs,
pressing rings with adapter tongs of other makes can be used in REMS Power­
Press SE, REMS Power­Press, REMS Power­Press ACC, REMS Akku­Press
and REMS Akku­Press ACC if they are designed for the necessary thrust force
of 32 kN, fit mechanically in the REMS drive unit, can be properly locked and
break without danger, e.g. without the risk of flaying parts of the press jaws, at
the end of their life or when overloaded. It is recommended to only use pressing
tongs and pressing rings with adapter tongs which are designed with a safety
factor ≥ 1.4 against permanent fracture, i.e. withstand a necessary thrust force
of 32 kN up to a thrust force of 45 kN. Also read and observe the instruction
manuals and safety instructions of the respective manufacturer/supplier of the
pressing tongs, pressing rings with adapter tongs and the installation and assembly
instructions of the manufacturer supplier of the press fitting system to be pressed
and observe any restrictions for use that are specified there. Failure to do so
could lead to fracture and flying parts can cause serious injuries.
● Only operate the axial press with pressing heads fully inserted. Failure to
do so could lead to fracture and flying parts can cause serious injuries.
● Always screw expanding heads as far as they will go onto the expander.
Failure to do so could lead to fracture and flying parts can cause serious injuries.
● Use only undamaged pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs, pressing rings,
adapter tongs, pressing heads and expanding heads. Damaged pressing
tongs, Mini pressing tongs, pressing rings, adapter tongs, pressing heads and
expanding heads can jam or fracture and/or the press fitting will be faulty. Do not
attempt to repair damaged pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs, pressing rings,
adapter tongs, pressing heads and expanding heads. Failure to do so could lead
to fracture and flying parts can cause serious injuries.
● Pull out the plug or remove the battery before assembly/disassembly of
pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs, pressing rings, adapter tongs, pressing
heads and expanding heads. There is a risk of injury.
● Position the rotary sleeve (27) of Power-Press XL ACC according to the
pressing tongs/adapter tongs being used, see 2.2. There is a risk of injury.
● Comply with the maintenance regulations for the power tool and follow the
maintenance instructions for pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs, pressing
rings, adapter tongs, pressing heads and expanding heads. Following the
maintenance instructions has a positive effect on the life of the power tool, the
pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs, pressing rings, adapter tongs, pressing
heads and widening heads.
● Check the connecting cable and extension leads of the power tool regularly
for damage. Have these renewed by qualified experts or an authorised REMS
customer service workshop in case of damage.
● Only allow trained persons to use the power tool. Apprentices may only use
the power tool when they are over 16, when this is necessary for their training
and when they are supervised by a trained operative.
● Children and persons who, due to their physical, sensory or mental abilities
or lack of experience and knowledge are unable to operate the power tool
safely may not use this power tool without supervision or instruction by a
responsible person. Otherwise there is a risk of injury due to false operation.
● Only use approved and appropriately marked extension leads with a suffi-
cient cable cross-section. Use extension leads up to a length of 10 m with
cable cross­section 1.5 mm², from 10 – 30 m with cable cross­section 2.5 mm².
