Instruction Manual
MAP 1
The pressing cycle is started by actuating the trigger. The pressing cycle is characterized by the closing motion of the
jaws. Due to the linear movement of the drive rolls on the piston the jaws close scissors like.
Attention
A necessary condition for a permanently leaking free connection is that the pressing cycle has to be com-
pleted and the jaws are closed.
Attention
The crimping process can be interrupted at any moment by releasing the trigger.
Attention
Make sure that the locking pin (pic. 1, 8) is completely pushed in and safely engaged.
Attention
The assembly of gas pipes in gas distribution lines is prohibited unless the system provider gives an explicit
permission to use this tool on special gas fi ttings.
Attention
The user has to check by optical means whether the pressing jaws are completely closed.
Attention
If a pressing cycle has been interrupted the fi tting has to be either dismantled or pressed a second time.
The user needs to make sure that the pressing jaws are completely closed and that there are no foreign objects (e.g.
plaster or stone fractions) between the pressing jaws.
By sliding the retract slide in the direction of the battery the dies can be retracted in case of an error or emergency.
The crimping cycle is terminated when the dies are completely closed and the max. crimping force is reached which
is indicated by the auto retraction of the piston.
Attention
After having terminated the pressing process and prior to changing the dies remove battery to avoid
unintended starts (pic. 10).
